Varför Early Access?

“We've been developing this game for three years now, with a tiny team and a grand vision. Releasing the game in Early Access allows us to maintain development on a product we deeply care about and helps us improve it alongside the community's feedback, something we believe is crucial to making games reach their full potential.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“Our demo was available and continuously updated on Steam for over a year, and during this period, we've received lots of feedback. It was like running a free Earlier Early Access. Due to that, we expect the actual Early Access to last for around half a year, but this might change according to player feedback and overall satisfaction with the final product.

We have a lot of stuff we still wish to add and improve, so we don't plan on rushing things. Our goal is to release 1.0 once we're collectively satisfied with how fun and polished the game feels.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“Currently, the game's core is solid and has many of the unique elements of our creative vision, but we still have much more planned content that requires time to implement (especially with a tiny team). Our vision for a full version of E-Lich: Corporate Souls includes enough content to make up for dozens of hours of gameplay and hundreds of possibilities on every run, and endlessly fun replayability value.

We're planning new game modes, new maps with unique mechanics, more playable characters and unique NPCs, customization features, a longer and carefully crafted narrative, and more meta-progression options!”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The current version contains over 100 boon options, 20+ spells, more than 20 talents, 5 playable characters with unique weapons and different playstyles, 2 boss tiers, 5+ unique NPCs with interactive dialogues and storylines, a carefully crafted lobby, and of course, a ridiculous amount of jokes and funny references.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“As our game continues to evolve throughout Early Access with polishing and the addition of more content, we anticipate increasing the price at release to better capture the enhanced value it brings to our players.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Be it between our team members or between us and our players, we believe that transparent and effective communication is the key to developing a successful product. Great games thrive alongside great communities, and E-Lich is no different.

We've been actively listening to player feedback over on our Discord server and over the amazing physical events we've been lucky to participate and showcase our Demo on for the past couple of years. That won't change with Early Access.

Players can reach out to us in our Discord server, or through the Steam Forums, which we also check often (just not as regularly as Discord).”
