早期アクセスにした理由

“We want our players to have the most positive experience possible when playing Ocean Keeper. Early Access allows us to involve the gaming community at an early stage of development to gather feedback and suggestions. This helps us improve the game, fix bugs, and add features that are important to players. By doing so, we can create a higher quality and more engaging game that meets the needs of our users.”

大体どのくらいの期間このゲームを早期アクセスにする予定ですか？

“At the moment, we have several major updates planned that will significantly improve gameplay and add more content for players. Naturally, these updates affect the release timeline of version 1.0. As of now, we can confidently say that we plan to release Ocean Keeper 1.0 within three months of the Early Access launch. This will give us enough time to make all necessary improvements and additions, as well as test and polish the game before the official release.”

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？

“We can't reveal all the details, but in the full version of the game, we're planning to delight you with more diverse content, such as, bosses, artifacts, more enemies and guns. Sure, some mechanics may be deleted, but we're confident we can surprise you. We also plan to significantly enhance the graphics and optimization, as well as improve the "underwater" experience based on feedback received during Early Access.”

Players will be able to suggest ideas, vote on new features, and report bugs. We will also provide regular updates and reports on our progress to keep the community informed about all changes and improvements in the game.”
