Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Drawing from our experience with previous games, Early Access has proven to be a valuable tool for us to understand what the community expects from the game. It allows the development to evolve based on real player feedback, ensuring the game takes shape in a way that aligns with what players find engaging.

For this particular game, we’re using Early Access to validate several key features that are central to this simulator, such as:

1. Survival elements like gathering food, processing ingredients, dealing with wild animals, and managing survival stats.
2. Fun and engaging challenges for players.
3. The overall game progression.
4. Multiplayer mode and its gameplay experience.

We believe that validating these features during Early Access is crucial to ensuring a polished and enjoyable Full Release.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'We plan to have Early Access for 3 to 6 months, but this may change based on development progress. Our primary objective is to not only complete the content but also ensure that the experimental features we introduce are fun and realistic for our current team. We'll take time to refine the game, leveraging community feedback to shape the gameplay, ensuring that by the end of Early Access, the game is both polished and enjoyable.'

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

'The Full Version is planned to differ from Early Access primarily through the potential inclusion of additional features and content. While Early Access will focus on experimenting with core mechanics and gathering community feedback, the Full Version is expected to explore more refined and polished iterations of these features as development progresses.

We are planning for the Full Version to include the following features:

1. Expanding game progression content to enhance the player experience.
2. Introducing a deeper and more challenging survival system.
3. Developing a more comprehensive herbal medicine system.
4. Exploring additional modes such as multiplayer or other engaging game modes.

All of these features will be fine-tuned based on community feedback to create an enjoyable and cohesive experience, though some elements may evolve as development progresses.'

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

'The Early Access version is in the initial stages of development, introducing core gameplay elements like gathering food, processing ingredients, crafting herbal medicines, and delivering them. These features are still in their early phases, and to enhance their challenge and enjoyment, we will be developing them progressively, focusing on improving usability and providing more engaging challenges.

We will actively monitor player feedback, using it to shape these features as long as the changes align with our overall game goals. Player contributions will be crucial in making these features more fun and functional over time.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'Our pricing strategy will evolve throughout Early Access and be finalized at full release. During Early Access, the game will be offered at a lower price to reflect its ongoing development and the early stages of core features. As we move toward full release and meet key development milestones, the price may increase to account for additional content, refined features, and overall gameplay improvements. This approach ensures that early supporters benefit from a lower price and get to experience the game's evolution firsthand, while also allowing us to support ongoing development.'

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

'We are dedicated to a collaborative development process during Early Access, with multiple discussion channels for players to engage through the Steam Community to report bug or your feedback regarding the game and also in-game feedback form that you can write us your input for the game.

We listen closely to all community feedback, assessing each suggestion to ensure it aligns with our goals and is both viable and feasible. We believe that this collaboration will allow us to refine features and improve the game in ways that make it more engaging, fun, and polished for players. Player feedback will directly influence key aspects of gameplay, helping us create a more solid experience by the time Early Access concludes.'
