What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Highland Huntress is my passion project, and Early Access is the perfect way to involve players in its development. By launching in Early Access, I can gather valuable feedback from players like you, which will help shape and refine the game into something truly special.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Highland Huntress will be in Early Access for approximately 6 to 12 months. This timeframe allows me to gather player feedback, implement new features, and polish the game to ensure it meets the highest standards. However, the exact duration may vary depending on the scope of updates and the depth of feedback received. My priority is to create a well-rounded and enjoyable experience, so I'll take the necessary time to make sure the game is ready for full release.”

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

“The full version of Highland Huntress is planned to be a more expansive and polished experience compared to the Early Access version. While I can't make specific promises about future events, here’s what I aim to achieve as the game progresses:

Expanded Content: I plan to add more levels, enemies, and unique environments that will enhance the variety and depth of the gameplay. This includes additional regions to explore and more diverse challenges to overcome.

New Features: As development continues, I hope to introduce new game modes, character abilities, and customization options that will provide players with more ways to play and personalize their experience.

Overall Polish: I will continue to work on bug fixes, optimization, and quality-of-life improvements to ensure the game runs smoothly and offers the best possible experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the Early Access version of Highland Huntress is that the game is fully playable from start to finish, offering a complete experience. However, some features are still missing or incomplete. While the core gameplay is in place, there are areas that I plan to expand and refine based on player feedback during Early Access. This means you can enjoy the game as it stands, but there’s still room for additional content, features, and polish in the lead-up to the full release.”

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

“Yes, the game will be priced differently during and after Early Access. During Early Access, Highland Huntress will be available at a lower price as a way to reward early supporters and those who wish to be part of the development process. As more features and content are added and the game approaches its full release, the price is likely to increase to reflect the expanded scope and polish of the final version. This pricing approach ensures that early adopters get great value while also supporting the ongoing development of the game.”

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

“Involving the community in the development of Highland Huntress is a top priority for me. Here’s how I plan to do it:

Regular Updates and Dev Blogs: I will provide frequent updates on the game’s progress through dev blogs and posts. These will include insights into what’s being worked on, challenges faced, and the roadmap ahead. Transparency is key, and I want players to feel connected to the development journey.

Feedback and Suggestions: I’m open to feedback and suggestions from players. Whether through forums, social media, or dedicated feedback platforms, I’ll actively seek out and consider player input on gameplay, features, and content. Your thoughts will directly influence the direction of the game.

Community Polls and Votes: I plan to involve the community in decision-making through polls and votes on certain aspects of the game, such as new features, design choices, or content priorities. This gives players a direct say in how Highland Huntress evolves.

Playtesting and Bug Reports: I will encourage players to participate in playtesting and report any bugs or issues they encounter. This will help me identify areas that need improvement and ensure a smoother, more polished experience for everyone.

Engaging with Players on Social Media and Forums: I’ll be active on social media and forums, engaging with the community, answering questions, and discussing ideas. Building a strong, supportive community around Highland Huntress is important to me, and I’m excited to interact with players throughout the development process.

Showcasing Community Contributions: I want to highlight and showcase contributions from the community, whether it's fan art, gameplay videos, or creative ideas. This not only recognizes the efforts of players but also fosters a sense of belonging and shared purpose.

By involving the community in these ways, I hope to create a collaborative and dynamic development environment that reflects the passion and creativity of everyone involved in Highland Huntress.”
