Почему ранний доступ?

«Translating skateboarding physics to a game is hard work - especially for a team of one (now two). We've made tremendous progress in very short time since SkateLab's inception - but to reach full potential, early feedback is crucial!

Additionally, I'm not one to keep things hidden behind curtains. What's here already is a FUN experience that originated with the skating-game community and includes the evolution of the game. Please join us, enjoy the ride, and help shape the future of skateboarding games!»

Сколько примерно эта игра будет в раннем доступе?

«We've made, to be honest, a BONKERS amount of progress in a rather short time - but acknowledge that the journey is just beginning. Our best estimate is at least one year of early access while we fine-tune our unique control scheme and build out a system of more traditional game objectives, rewards, achievements, etc.»

Чем планируемая полная версия будет отличаться от версии в раннем доступе?

«SkateLab's full release is intended to feature a more refined control system - one that's both more intuitive, and offers more freedom than anything else in the genre. This is our top priority and will continue to be the driving force toward a final release.

That said, we'd also like the full release to include a number of skill-games - things like racing, obstacle courses, physics puzzles and other unique ways to exercise board control!»

Каково текущее состояние версии в раннем доступе?

«For early access, we have a remarkably full-featured skateboarding sandbox:

• Snappy, responsive, 100% physics-driven board control
  
• Customizable board & shoes
  
• A map editor/object dropper complete with spline-based curved objects
  
• Replay Editor
  
• Online Multiplayer

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«Through direct feedback and frequent communication with players. We would also love to foster an active modding community, providing templates for levels, board designs and other assets; and streamlining the modding process as much as possible. This is SkateLAB and we want the community to join in the experiments.»
