Miksi Early Access?

Magitech Requiem is being developed primarily by one person, and therefore, properly balancing and polishing the game is quite difficult. By going into early access, I can ensure that community feedback is implemented throughout development.

In addition to general bug fixes and polish, I plan to use feedback from players to decide which direction development should take. Ultimately this could influence what features are implemented, and how they may function.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Core to the full release, I plan to integrate at least one fully polished game mode. Multiple difficulties are planned, with the highest being designed around high-level tactical gameplay with optimised builds. To allow for higher skill expression, I plan to add more perks, weapons, and enemies.

It is planned that the final game will remain relatively tight and focused. I want the game to do a few things, and do them well, rather than being a mishmash of random features and ideas.
