Wat de ontwikkelaars zeggen:

Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Hello Creators!

Welcome to Bonfire Early Access!
We are thrilled to welcome you to the Early Access phase of Bonfire. This journey marks a significant milestone for our development team, and we couldn't be more excited to have you with us.

Below, you'll find all the essential details about Early Access and how you can contribute to shaping Bonfire's future.

Thank you for your interest!

Our vision for Bonfire is, in a word, ambitious.
At its core, Bonfire is meant to be a foundational shift in how games are made, and, as such, there's a lot we are still exploring and figuring out to ensure we are hitting as many of the types of stories people may want to tell as we can.
Building and involving a community of creators in the development process is crucial to achieving our goals. Early Access allows us to gather valuable feedback, identify and fix issues, and refine gameplay mechanics based on your experiences and suggestions.

During Early Access, you can look forward to:

Core Gameplay Features: Enjoy the main mechanics and systems that form the foundation of Bonfire, and let your imagination run loose as you build and play your own stories.
Regular Updates: We will release frequent updates to introduce new content, features, and improvements.
Active Community Engagement: Your feedback is vital! Share your thoughts, report bugs, and participate in discussions on our forums and social media channels.

How You Can Help


Your participation is invaluable to us. Here are a few ways you can help improve Bonfire:

Provide Feedback: Let us know what you love, what you think could be better, and any ideas for new features.
Report Bugs: If you encounter bugs or issues, please report them through [Bug Reporting Method/Link].
Join the Community: Connect with other players, share your experiences, and stay updated on the latest news through our Discord (https://discord.gg/4JKHDb22wj).

Thank You!

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you for supporting Bonfire during Early Access. Your feedback and enthusiasm drive us to make this platform the best it can be. Together, we can create something truly special.

Happy Creating!
The Dimension X Team'

Hoelang blijft deze software ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Approximately 90 days.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Our ambitions for Bonfire are massive, and our future features list echoes that.
One of the main reasons we are launching with Early Access is that we want to use community feedback to help inform which features we should roll out next and which we should probably hold off on.
Some features that we already know will be highly requested but will likely NOT be out during Early Access are:
  • Multiplayer
  • Mobile Players (iOS, iPadOS, and Android)
  • Mobile Builder (iPadOS)
  • VR Builder
  • Standalone VR Players (Quest, Pico, etc.)
  • Unreal-based Players for those craving higher-level graphics (and have the hardware to support it)
  • and a whole lot more...
'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Today, Bonfire can support content focusing on third-person or first-person player controls and not requiring driving or flying vehicles or other game mechanics that involve changing player input behavior.
This is a known limitation that we are actively resolving and will roll out at a later date.

Bonfire is a platform in which players are encouraged to import their own creations and is VERY mod-friendly thanks to its Spark-based foundations and the Ember runtime scripting language.

Sparks are a new kind of file that allows for code and visuals to live together, separate from any app binary, with nearly limitless potential in what you can do; as such, we are purposefully limiting Multiplayer support and certain other features until we have the data required to ensure our mitigation plans for misuse will work as intended.

Nearly all of our current stable enough-for-release features are included in Early Access, and more will roll out as we refine our roadmap.
We expect bugs and have planned to react to reports with quick updates as required.
We do not expect any hard crashes and will react to any reports with priority.

For a complete list of features and capabilities, refer to our "About This" section.'

Zal deze software anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'We plan to maintain a free tier even after our full launch. As time progresses, we plan to open up additional paid tiers that provide additional services we believe will be well worth the expense. While the prices themselves are still not determined (we need more data to analyze our-side costs properly), we expect to tie the tiers to things like:
  • expanding your dedicated storage on our infrastructure
  • ability to monetize your Books, Chapters, Maps, and/or Sparks
  • access controls for your content
  • more to come...
'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'We are actively supporting, engaging, and ideating with the community using the Discord community server.'

Over deze software

Welcome to Bonfire!
Bonfire is the ultimate platform for rapidly creating cross-platform interactive experiences.
Designed specifically with storytellers and content creators in mind, Bonfire significantly reduces the time it takes to turn your ideas into reality.
In Bonfire, an experience is known as a Book, which consists of bite-sized “levels” or “scenes” called Chapters. Chapters consist of background geometry known as Maps, with interactive elements known as Sparks. Sparks are the foundational building block of Bonfire and can be anything from a button on a panel to a tree, a Non-Player Character, a sword, a chair… you name it. If it's something you should be able to interact with, it's a Spark.
Books, Chapters, Maps, and Sparks all live as separate files on your computer, allowing for immense reusability and quick customization.

Spark’ify Your Creations


Bonfire comes packed with assets to start your journey, but we don’t expect things to end there. You can quickly import your creations using the built-in Spark Utility or the supplemental Sparkifier app. Pair custom artwork with one of our many Spark Templates to bring them to life with animations, logic, and more.

Don’t see a template that fits what you’re after?
Custom Spark Templates can be made using the Sparkifier App and our Ember scripting language.

Let Players Choose


Bonfire's intuitive Chapter Tree enables you to craft intricate branching narratives effortlessly in a "choose-your-adventure" style experience.
Go as linear or non-linear as desired, with complete control over what triggers a player to jump from one chapter to the next.

Easily Customize


Traits allow you to modify the exposed properties of a Spark with ease.
When you make your Sparks, you, as the Spark Author, control what Traits are shown and what they do.
From paint color to run speed and almost anything else you can think of, you can make a Trait for that, allowing Book authors to customize it per Spark Instance.

No Coding Required


Behaviors are broken into two simple categories: Causes and Effects.
Causes are things that Players can do to Sparks (like attack or interact), while Effects are things that Sparks can do in reaction to a Cause.
Create complex interactives by stringing Causes and Effects together in endless combinations.
NOTE: There are also Modifiers: Bonfire-native nodes that allow for changing Chapters, executing Ember scripts, debug tools, and more.

Built-In Scripting


Ember is our runtime scripting language that allows veteran and new coders alike to write code and keep it bound to nodes in the Behavior tree.
This lets you have the flexibility of coding without having to compile and without having to ensure everyone else on your team knows how to code as well.
Today, it has a rather limited set of features, but we will be expanding its capabilities with each update.

One-Click Share


Whether you want to play-test your creations or share them with your friends, Bonfire allows you to quickly distribute your content to players across a wide range of devices (currently, only desktop and PC VR, but mobile and standalone VR support will be released soon).
Within the Share menu, choose Debug for testing without sharing or Release to share with the world.
By default, all shared books are publically accessible to all. In later releases, higher license tiers will roll out, allowing you to privatize your creations, monetize them, and more.

Sparks

Sparks are the heart of Bonfire. These versatile elements combine visuals and modifiable behaviors, serving as characters, triggers, scorekeepers, and state machines to monitor actions and consequences. As the fundamental building blocks of your interactive experiences, Sparks makes the creation process simple and efficient.

Dive into Bonfire and start bringing your stories to life with unparalleled ease and creativity.

Informatie over door AI gegenereerde inhoud

Zo omschrijven de ontwikkelaars hoe hun spel AI gebruikt om inhoud te genereren:

First and foremost, we are a content creation platform.
To that end, while we do not actively integrate any Gen-AI tools into our product today, we do not restrict the use of AI-generated content as long as it is properly licensed and does not violate our content rules.

Nobody will ever be forced to use AI tools if they don't want to. We are not an AI company. We aim to ensure we fulfill our mission of making content creation easier for players from all skill levels and specialties.

We expect and encourage our players to bring in their own content that they've created, either manually or via tools such as Gen-AI, and do not restrict said content as long as it has all been properly licensed and abides by our content rules.

That said, we only use AI-generated content for marketing materials, and it will not be included in any assets we bundle with the product at launch. All player-useable assets bundled with the product at launch are properly licensed third-party or first-party assets made by humans.
