Why Early Access?

“Since “Risk the Dark” is my first game, there have been many trials and errors that have provided users with a less-than-satisfactory experience.
I believe Early Access will help me get out of my comfort zone, to continuously improve the issues, balance, and bugs through ongoing feedback before the game’s official release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“While there’s no set end date, I expect to continue this process until the end of 2025.”

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

“The improved systems and additional content will be showcased through user feedback.
New features, a variety of new items, and two or more new areas will be added.
I’ll keep you updated on how far the development has progressed and plans for the future.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is already in a fully comprehensible and playable state.
So far, you can experience three distinct stages, along with a multitude of enemies, events, interactions, and weapons.
Although most of it is complete, elements like UI, sound effects, graphics, enemy patterns, and difficulty may be changed based on future development direction and judgment.”

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

“A gradual price increase will occur as new content and features are added.”

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

“You can leave feedback through my email and the Risk the Dark Discord channel that will be created later.
I will also try to monitor feedback as much as possible in public places like Steam’s discussion forums and various communities.
I’ve already made several adjustments to reflect the feedback that has been received and I will continue to incorporate your valuable input into the patch notes.”
