Why Early Access?

“Early access for TerraKids is a strategic initiative designed to cater to a unique demographic, specifically targeting children aged 3 to 7. Our primary objective is to cultivate the next generation of gamers by providing them with a secure and educational gaming experience. TerraKids is dedicated to constructing a virtual realm that imparts essential lessons in ecological balance, energy conservation, pollution awareness, and more.

In pursuit of our mission, we invite both parents and children to embark on this developmental voyage alongside us. Through early access, we seek to engage our community in an ongoing collaborative process, one that not only enriches the gaming experience but also contributes to the evolution and refinement of the game itself. Your valuable feedback plays an instrumental role in shaping the future of TerraKids, as we collectively strive to redefine the landscape of educational gaming.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our intention is to maintain TerraKids in Early Access until the end of April. This timeframe allows us to thoroughly gather and incorporate user feedback, refine the gaming experience, and ensure that the final product meets the highest standards of quality and educational value. However, please note that our commitment to delivering an exceptional game may lead to adjustments in this timeline if necessary to achieve our goals. Your support and engagement during this period are greatly appreciated as we work towards creating an outstanding gaming experience for our community.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the transition from the Early Access version to the full version, we have ambitious plans to expand and enrich the TerraKids gaming experience. While we avoid making specific promises about release dates or guarantees, here is an outline of the enhancements and additions we aim to implement:

Expanded Themes and Levels: During Early Access, we offer two themes and eight levels, but in the full version, our goal is to introduce eight distinct themes and a minimum of 32 different levels. This expanded content will provide a more diverse and engaging gameplay experience.

Enhanced Educational Content: We intend to augment the educational aspects of the game by incorporating additional mini-games and puzzles. These activities will not only entertain but also stimulate children's cognitive development and decision-making skills.

Diverse Playable Characters: In the full version, players will have the opportunity to interact with the game using three different characters, adding variety and depth to the gameplay.

Richer Storytelling: We plan to enrich the storytelling component of TerraKids, immersing players in captivating narratives that complement the educational content and enhance the overall gaming experience.

Additional Gameplay Mechanics: Two or more unique gameplay mechanics are in the pipeline for incorporation into the full version. These mechanics will introduce fresh challenges and diversify the gameplay further.

Please keep in mind that our aim is to deliver an exceptional final product, but specific timelines and the exact nature of future updates may evolve based on user feedback and development considerations. Your participation and feedback during the Early Access phase are invaluable as we work towards achieving these objectives.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the Early Access version of TerraKids is stable and functional. We have successfully launched the game with two thematic experiences and eight levels, which serve as the foundation for our ongoing development efforts. While the game is fully playable and enjoyable, it is important to note that we consider the Early Access phase as an opportunity for continuous improvement.

We actively encourage our community to engage with the game, provide feedback, report any issues or bugs they encounter, and share their insights on gameplay and educational aspects. This valuable feedback helps us refine and enhance the user experience, make necessary optimizations, and work towards achieving our goals for the full version.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Our pricing strategy for TerraKids is to maintain consistency from the outset of Early Access and throughout its development journey. We do not have any plans to alter the pricing structure as we progress. Your investment in the game during Early Access will remain unchanged, ensuring that all users receive the same pricing benefits, regardless of when they choose to join our community. We aim to provide a fair and accessible pricing model for all players to enjoy the game's educational content and experiences.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Engaging the TerraKids community is a fundamental aspect of our development process, and we have devised several strategies to ensure their active involvement and contribution:

Feedback-Driven Approach: We deeply value the insights and opinions of our community members, especially parents and children. As many of our team members are parents themselves, we recognize the significance of feedback in shaping an educational game. TerraKids is designed with a unique focus on providing both enjoyment and education simultaneously, and this equilibrium can only be achieved through solid feedback from our users.

Discord Community Channel: We have established a dedicated Discord channel as a central hub for open communication. This platform allows parents and children to easily share their thoughts, suggestions, and concerns. It serves as a direct line of communication between our development team and the TerraKids community.

Listening and Evolving: Our commitment is to actively listen to the feedback provided by parents and children and leverage it to evolve the game continually. We recognize that constructive criticism and ideas from our community are invaluable in enhancing both the safety and enjoyment aspects of TerraKids.

Educational and Joyful Experience: TerraKids aims to break the mold by prioritizing enjoyment and education equally. We understand that the synergy between these elements is essential for a successful educational game, and we are dedicated to achieving this balance with the help of our community's valuable feedback.

In summary, we view our community as integral partners in the development of TerraKids. Their feedback is pivotal in our mission to provide the safest and most enjoyable educational gaming experience for children, fostering a positive introduction to gaming at an early age while emphasizing educational content.”
