Varför Early Access?

“We really want to work with the community to make this the most fun we possibly can.
A big part of our model here is to take direct player feedback into consideration as we work towards the 1.0 Release.

We have our own roadmap, which we'll make public but we want to know what people like, dislike, and want more of.
The only way we're going to do that is to have everyone involved from the earliest possible point. There's always a risk with early access, but we think we've got something fun here and really need your help to make it a game that we truly believe it can be.

In that spirit, we hope that you'll engage with us through the forums and discord to point out issues and make suggestions, we read ALL feedback.

But make no mistake, this game is in true Early Access. This isn't a sneaky way to release the game.

You will find bugs, you will find crashes, and you will lose progress, but you will also be helping us to deliver an incredible game that's only going to get better as we work through early access.”

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

“Our goal is to have a stable 1.0 release within a year of early access. Obviously locking down a solid time is a tough prospect, as unseen pitfalls are all too common in game development.”

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

“We have a lot of plans already, uncluding:

*A macro progression system where each player can progress outside of individual games
improving their abilities with the various tools and devices in the game.


*Endgame content: We really want to expand the world and bring in fresh new activities beyond the basic game loop. This will include new types of events instead of just the dungeons that you find now.

*New and varied enemies: We are looking to have plenty of threats all over the world to test your skills and make every adventure a thrilling challenge each time you do a run.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The game is currently in it's foundational stage.

6 unique and dangerous enemies inside the ancient ruins.

over 20 Items to find and sell
The foundation of the player progression system with several perks to unlock and equip.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Yes, our current price is set low enough to encourage more people to join us on this journey as we fully develop this into an adventure that we'll want to play for a long time. As the game progresses closer to the official release, the price will rise to reflect.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“This is the big one.
We want to create a community to help us bring the game to life. We'll be active in our discord, forums, and social media. We'll be listening to all feedback, good or bad, to try and deliver the game you all want to play.

We can't wait to hear your ideas and feedback, and are excited to let you into the world of Relencost.

We'll See you Beyond the Stormwall.”
