Hvorfor tidlig adgang?

“Primary gameplay features are implemented and the game is in a playable state, but there's still much more to include. Expect frequent new features and game breaking bugs during the Early Access phase of the game, especially in multiplayer. Issues can be brought up in the Steam Community.

Platformer is planned to be an expansive adventure game with randomly generated worlds of various sizes, difficult monsters and bosses, a large assortment of unique weapons, trinkets to expand the player's abilities, tools to shape the world, and much more.

Updates will happen periodically to add new content, fix bugs, and improve existing features. Expect occasional bugs during early access, including the very rare chance of character, inventory, or world information loss.”

Hvor lang tid vil dette spil være i tidlig adgang?

“Platformer will be updated periodically with additional content. However, in early access important features are still being implemented such as trinkets, boss enemies, the lava core, and other vital game mechanics.

A large amount of future content is already implemented, but must be refined for gameplay. As it is being refined, the features will be released gradually. Once all the major features are complete, Platformer will no longer be considered in early access.

Music is an important feature that is being filled out, it will come in time.
There will be further updates after Platformer is released to include additional content and optimizations as well.”
