Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Quiet Soul is built on atmosphere, mystery, and the satisfaction of solving a puzzle. To create the most compelling and immersive experience possible, we need your help. Together with the community, we want to test and refine the game world, the intrigue of the environment, and, most importantly, the logic and difficulty of the puzzles. Your feedback is crucial to help us ensure that the riddles are clever yet fair, that the mansion's environment breathes an authentic atmosphere, and that every discovered detail contributes to the feeling of tension and revelation.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Our current plan is to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 9 months. However, this is an estimate. The final duration will depend heavily on the feedback from the community. The more input we receive, the more thoroughly we can polish the puzzles and the explorable environment, which may affect the development timeline.'

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

'The current Early Access version represents a solid foundation of the game's core concept – an abandoned mansion full of puzzles to solve. Depending on community feedback and the success of Early Access, our hope is to significantly expand the game with more content. This may include things like:

Expanding the mansion itself with new wings and floors to deepen the feeling of scale and discovery.

Adding additional layers of puzzles and environmental challenges to vary the gameplay loop.

More story layers and collectible items to deepen the mysterious atmosphere.

Further refinement and expansion of the non-intrusive environmental storytelling.

Exploring the potential for a cooperative multiplayer mode, allowing players to solve the mansion's secrets together.

Considering the implementation of a system to allow for puzzle difficulty customization.'

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

'The current version of Quiet Soul is playable from start to finish and offers a complete, multi-hour experience that accurately captures the core of its intent. The game includes all key mechanics:

A Complete Mansion to Explore: Players can traverse the entire, extensive mansion ready for discovery.

A Core Set of Puzzles: The game features a fully functional and polished set of interconnected puzzles that must be solved to escape.

Immersive Atmosphere: The visuals and audio design are fully implemented to create a tense and eerie atmosphere.

Important Note: While the game is stable and provides a quality experience, it is an actively developed Early Access title. You may encounter occasional bugs or areas that require fine-tuning – this is exactly where you can help us.'

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

'Yes, we currently plan to increase the price after the full official release to reflect the added content and improvements made during Early Access. Therefore, purchasing the game now secures the best possible price and directly supports its development.'

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

'The community is our most important partner in creating a perfectly immersive and logical puzzle experience. We plan to involve them by:

Establishing dedicated channels (such as Discord and Steam forums) for sharing ideas and feedback on puzzles and the atmosphere.

Running polls and questionnaires focused specifically on puzzle difficulty and the feeling of discovery.

Publishing transparent development blogs to showcase how community feedback is shaping the future content and refinements of the mansion.'
