Miksi Early Access?

As a solo developer, games can be a lot of work. Early Access will primarily be used to get as much player feedback as possible and improve the game quality overall. It will help a lot to bring the game in a good direction and make the best out of it.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Currently the estimated time is roughly around 6 Months. Along the way I will provide more and more infos about the exact date of the 1.0 version release.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

The 1.0 version of Eternal Rain is planned to have a significantly expanded arsenal of characters, upgrades and enemies. I will also try to include a lot of player feedback throughout the time in development
A general overview of everything that is currently planned for the finished game:

• More characters: There are currently 6 more character ideas that will be in the full version
  
• More upgrades: Many ideas for new upgrade trees and overhauls for old ones
  
• Additonal maps: 2 more maps with other obstacles and challenges
  
• Endless mode
  
• New enemies and boss fights
  
• Additonal power system: An infinite upgrading system outside the main game to boost your character even further
  
• More ways to increase difficulty
  
• Rework graphics & sound
  
• Achievements

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Things currently in game:

• 1 playable + 5 more unlockable characters
  
• 15 different upgrade trees
  
• 1 playable map with unique enemies (3 variations)
  
• Monsoon System (5 increasing difficulties)

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

I'm planning on a reduced price during Early Access that will slightly increase once the game leaves Early Access. I want to keep the costs for players as low as possible so everyone can enjoy the game. There is no additonal purchase to be made for the 1.0 version.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

I'm committed taking in as much feedback from the community as possible. I want to go this journey together with the players as that is the most imporant thing for a game. I have an official Discord Server where I'm trying to have nice conversations together with the community and also where the community itself can talk about the game and figure out cool strategies.

I'm looking forward to go this development journey together with you, working together will make the game what I wish it to be.
