早期アクセスにした理由

“As a hobby developer with little experience in game design, I find it invaluable to receive feedback on my work, prior to completely finishing the game. It's difficult to find sufficient time to make sweeping changes after devoting so much time and resources into just making the game in the first place. So, as a huge time saver, I want to gain as much feedback as possible so that I can complete the game with those criticisms in mind.”

“I'm targeting roughly June for a full release. If major changes are needed, the target will get pushed back.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“The game currently consists of the tutorial, first level, and a separate boss fight. For the full release, the plan currently is to extend the tutorial to a full size level with its own boss fight, and apply extra polish to the available level. There are also plans for two more levels with their own bosses and some new mobs, and then an unlockable fifth level of only the boss.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“Only the tutorial and the Abandoned Kingdoms level are available right now. The tutorial acts as a shorter, linear level that explains the core mechanics of the playable Knight (e.g. movement, attacking, boost, etc.) and the gameplay loop of each level. The Abandoned Kingdoms level includes 6 unique mobs, platforming through different environments, environmental hazards, and a boss at the end of the level.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“Yes. The version of the game with just the tutorial and the Abandoned Kingdom level will be free of charge. However, there will be a charge for the full release.”

どうやって開発プロセスにコミュニティを参加させる予定ですか？

“I'm just looking for feedback from the reviews and discussions so that I can make adjustments and balance updates to the game. For instance, based on feedback prior to Steam, I've been several updates to fonts, gameplay mechanics, and balancing. Based other feedback, I have plans to future extend the tutorial to ensure the player has a positive initial experience.”
