Wozu Early Access?

„As a solo developer and publisher I want to ensure that the product I'm shipping is up to as high a standard as possible. Early Access will give me the ability to gather and action feedback much more quickly, and much earlier in the development process.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„I hope to be in early access for approximately 3 months or so.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„There are a number of improvements I aim to make over the Early Access period:

• Add more maps that create varied design challenges
  
• Add challenge game modes where you're building specific capacity against the clock
  
• Expose content definitions for the community to make their own additions!
  
• Improve Steam integration (e.g. with Achievements & Stats)
  
• Potential full Mac OSX / Linux compatibility based on feedback

“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The Early Access version has all the fundamental gameplay intended for the final game (see the About This section for details), though I would like to expand out gameplay modes and maps to provide more varied challenges for players. It is currently primarily for Windows (OSX is also available but is not notarised) and also doesn't deeply integrate with available Steam features such as Achievements.

See the section above for some of the extra features I would like to add over the Early Access period.“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„My intention is to price the game the same after Early Access.“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„I would like to gather as much feedback as possible during Early Access. The point of games is to be fun and trying it out is the only way to find out what users are really enjoying!

One of the key goals in Early Access is also to expose the internal content definitions so that the community can adjust the built-in components or even add their own components. This will hopefully allow the community to drive their own preferences of what they want to build with.“
