Hva utviklerne har å si:

Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«Why Early Access?

We chose Early Access for Broken Bonds to give players the unique opportunity to be part of the game’s development process. It’s not just a chance to play the game early, but also to actively contribute to its evolution by providing feedback and suggestions.

The project is too ambitious and large to release all at once. For this reason, we’ve decided to break it into several chapters, releasing them as each part is completed. This approach allows us to focus on refining each segment of the game, while also taking into account community feedback at every stage. It also enables us to make the game deeper, more detailed, and better balanced than if we were trying to release everything at once.

Early Access allows us to test mechanics, balance, content, and technical stability across a broader range of devices and configurations, while also quickly addressing bugs that may have been missed during earlier stages of development.

Additionally, we want the community to be an active part of the creation process, sharing ideas, suggestions, and feedback that will shape the future of the game. We believe that, together with you, Broken Bonds will become better than if we were working in isolation.»

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

«Until the release of all seven chapters (approximately 2027).»

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

«We would like to integrate more cosmetic elements into the game (such as facial animations, weather effects), turn our sketch backgrounds into full-fledged ones, add more emotion sprites for the characters, as well as include voice acting and battle animations (+opening)). However, all of this will only be possible with the support of players!»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«The first chapter will be released soon.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«The price will remain the same during development and after the full release.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«We plan to listen to players' suggestions and feedback for improving the game. For example, we may introduce new gameplay aspects or mechanics (non-story-related) based on the expectations and wishes of the community.»
