Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«After a year of polishing the demo, Early Access feels like the natural next step. The core is solid, but to expand it intelligently we need a lot more focused feedback than a demo or playtests can't provide. Early Access has been proven to be an ideal fit for perfecting complex deckbuilding roguelikes. NET.CRAWL has already grown to the point where it's very hard to account for every possible combination and interaction. We're launching now to work with our players to test every possibility, steer clear of pitfalls, and help guide where the game goes next.»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«We plan to exit Early Access by the end of 2026. This provides the necessary development time and avoids confusion about which year's "Best Roguelike" list the game should belong on.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«Our focus will be on expanding the game with new content: new nodes, locations, aspects, and Cores. We also plan to add a "true ending" to finalize the experience.
We would like to introduce a few new systems. They aren't strictly necessary, but they should add more texture to runs.
Finally, we aim to complete necessary polish like controller support, better Steam Deck compatibility, and localizations.»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«The game is structurally about 90% complete, missing only the "true ending" and its final boss. It includes a full onboarding tutorial, introductory runs, and a substantial amount of content: over 150 regular nodes, 50 Cores (enemies), and 70+ Aspects (relic-like upgrades).
There should be enough depth and variety here to engage even very experienced players.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«Yes. The price will increase when we leave Early Access for the full 1.0 release. There may also be a smaller price increase when we complete all core features and polishing milestones.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«We’re always available on our Discord server, where players can share feedback, talk strategy, and suggest ideas.

We’re making a niche, thoughtful game, and the players it attracts tend to be sharp and dedicated. I genuinely look forward to hearing your ideas and learning from your perspective as we build the rest of the game together.»
