Varför Early Access?

“We're going with an Early Access Beta route to expand the player base beyond our Kickstarter backers, and to give everyone who's become interested in BEARZERKERS since our Kickstarter a chance to play and help mold the game in its final stages.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“We've been in Early Access since late 2015, and after a lot of work we'll be reaching our final goals soon.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“We're looking to build in a lot of variation to both modes of the game through our modifier system, add more playable critters, deadly bears and additional abilities and challenges for Gauntlet. Gauntlet mode especially is at an early state with a lot of ideas we hope to expand it with.

We'll also be looking into adding Steam features such as Achievements, Trading Cards, Steamplay, Leaderboards(for Gauntlet) etc.

On top of the things we'll be adding, the full version will potentially have more polished visuals and audio, less bugs and technical issues. We're looking to tweak for balance, fun and any technical issues players might be having. We've been doing testing ourselves on all the PC's and Mac devices we have, but the best way to know that everything will work as intended is to open it up to everyone who would like to play early.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“All the major building blocks of the game are in place and have been fun for a while now. As it stands we have 6 maps to play in the competitive mode Hunt, 4 of which have final or near final art, and 2 which are still in "greyboxing" stages in order to lock down the fun of their layouts before moving onto making them pretty. Our cooperative Gauntlet mode currently has one basic level with limited art. Gauntlet will be expanded to have more map variations, ending 'boss' challenges and we're looking into a procedurally generated variation.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“BEARZERKERS will be the same base price during Early Access and after the full release, this does not include promotional discounts.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“First off we'd love to hear from you all in the community hub about all the abilities and maps you love or hate and we'll be doing our best to respond to that stuff through the forum posts and the game itself. Beyond that we'll be collecting data about how you all play, so that we can use that kind of information to make the game better for everyone.”
