De ce Acces Timpuriu ?

„First and foremost, I really want this game to to be as good as it can possibly be.

Now, there's been a few bug fixes and minor features brought about (albeit more for a separate Android port) like keypad controls and WearOS compatibility, but this is a desktop game first and foremost, and there really hasn't been much of anything useful for that. Platforms aside, it's been real hard to tell where to improve on, or if something's unbalanced either without some real valuable feedback.”

Aproximativ cât timp se va afla acest joc în Acces Timpuriu?

„Hopefully this'll be fully realised within a year from this game's release days. Almost 2 major updates in now since 22/12/22, another 2 more and it's more or less golden.”

Ce diferențe vor fi între versiunea completă, finală și cea aflată în Acces Timpuriu?

„There's a lot more that's here now compared to when this project really got going on the 22nd of December well back in 2022, but the real good stuff just ain't there yet. These are the main things to look forward to...

Events and NPCs - With 11 homelands out and ready, seasons and weather conditions to play with and an internal calendar of sorts, having others to talk to and interact with beyond your party members would really allow for some fun moments. Just mind the real time support.

Better Battles - As is, there's an automatic battle system to play with, and not too many nuances beyond species abilities. Slipping in commands, switching and items will take a bit.

Online Battles and Trading - It's exactly what it says in the tin. There's already an even simpler battle system golden for quick and easy fights and plans for item/egg trading, but otherwise there's not much else really settled on here when it comes to how said online will even work.

Menu Adjustments - There's an awful lot of menus to sift through, particularly concerning the PLAY tab where you'll be doing the bulk of your questing, fighting, playing and whatnot. A better UX, and translations if I can manage it, is paramount.

More Species and Areas - It's almost a given, really. Currently more than halfway there in getting a roster of 220 as initially planned, too.

...and that's about it, give or take a few. In the meantime, expect other minor features to come along too.”

„It's more or less playable to an endpoint. Typical pet raising, quests to do, areas to unlock, items to collect, sell and use, there's still something to work for. Of course, there'll be more things to play around with in the future.”

Cum dorești să implici comunitatea în procesul tău de dezvoltare?

„I really appreciate any requests or bug reports that come my way, few as there are. At present, the only source of feedback's been scattered around on Discord. There's a server dedicated to all this too that'll be the main source of progress sharing and feedback collecting, but I'll be keeping an eye out for Steam discussions too.”
