What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Formula Circus is set to launch in Early Access primarily because we are committed to doing things right. We aim to refine and perfect the game with direct input from our players—valuing their suggestions, critiques, and creative ideas. This collaborative approach ensures that the game evolves in a way that truly resonates with its audience. We plan to keep the Early Access period concise and focused, with a clear goal to finalize all features and thoroughly polish every aspect of the game in preparation for a successful full release. Our team is dedicated to implementing the community's feedback efficiently, ensuring that when Formula Circus moves out of Early Access, we plan for it to be as complete and rewarding an experience as possible.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game is projected to be in Early Access for approximately one year. During this time, we plan to actively develop and refine the game based on community feedback and further internal testing to ensure a polished final release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access build is planned to include all basic features of the game (managerial and racing aspects) but is planned to lack the polished features, such as in-depth structure management and secondary features (but still needed for full release) for core gameplay. Early Access marks a crucial phase in the development of our game, where we focus on refining and enhancing the core concepts. During this period, we plan not only to polish the existing elements to perfection but also simultaneously integrate new features. These additions plan to include both our own planned updates and those highly requested by our community. This dual approach ensures that we are responsive to feedback and committed to improving the game's overall quality and depth. By engaging actively with our players, we aim to evolve the game into a more immersive and comprehensive experience, incorporating valuable insights and suggestions from those who know it best.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of the game is currently in the early Alpha stage of development. The core features are currently being worked on, such as racing feel and management features, while base models for the Alpha have been finalized already. This Alpha version is planned to initially be available to early backers and content creators. This strategy allows us to spread the word about the project and gain additional funding while gathering valuable feedback to refine and enhance the game further.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, we plan for the game to be priced differently during the Early Access phase compared to after its full release. The final pricing for the completed version will be decided closer to the release date.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We are deeply committed to involving the community in the development process of Formula Circus, as we believe that player input is vital to creating a truly engaging and well-rounded game. Here’s how we plan to integrate community feedback and participation:

  • Open Feedback Channels: We plan to establish robust forums and dedicated social media channels where players can discuss their experiences, offer suggestions, and provide feedback. These platforms are planned to be actively monitored to ensure that we can gather and understand community insights.

  • Regular Updates and Iterations: As we develop the game, we'll release regular updates based on the feedback received. This plan allows us to iterate on features and mechanics with the community in real-time, ensuring that their voices are not only heard but acted upon.

  • Community Polls and Voting: For key features or significant changes, we'll conduct polls and allow the community to vote on various aspects of the game. This ensures that the community has a direct impact on the development priorities and the direction of the game.

  • Developer Diaries and AMAs: Regular developer diaries and 'Ask Me Anything' (AMA) sessions are planned be conducted to keep the community informed about the development progress. These sessions are great for building transparency and trust between the developers and the community.

  • Modding Support: We plan to provide extensive modding tools and documentation, enabling the community to create and share their own content. This not only extends the life of the game but also allows for a high degree of customization and creativity.
