Miksi Early Access?

My goal is to create a game that can support high-level competitive play, and Early Access will be how I gather precise feedback for what works and what doesn't before the standards for high-level play become too ingrained to change.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

The game itself will remain free forever, but due to the costs associated with hosting leaderboards and replays alongside those leaderboards, access to the leaderboards must come with a paid DLC.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

As stated before, the purpose of doing an Early Access launch is to make changes that will disrupt high-level play before the game mechanics become too set in stone to change, and the direction I take with those changes will be influenced by player feedback. If you want to provide feedback, joining my Discord server is the best way to do it, though I'll keep an eye on Steam forums and other such places as well.
