Varför Early Access?

“We believe Couch Cup has the potential to be the ultimate party game, but its success depends on feedback and ideas from the community. Early Access allows us to refine gameplay, add exciting features, and ensure the experience is as fun, inclusive, and polished as possible. By involving players early, we can make Couch Cup better for everyone, with your help shaping its evolution. Early access also gives us the opportunity to test and scale our servers, so that we can deliver the best networking possible.”

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

“We estimate Couch Cup will remain in Early Access for 6 to 12 months, depending on the feedback we receive and the scope of features added during development. This timeframe will allow us to address community input, fix network bugs, add new mini-games, and improve the overall experience.”

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

“The full version of Couch Cup is planned to include:

More mini-games: Expanding the lineup with new, creative gameplay ideas.
Enhanced AI host features: Adding more personalized quips and interactions.
Additional customization options: Unlockable avatar items and accessories.
Improved accessibility: Expanded language support and user-friendly settings.
Polished UI and animations: Smoother, more engaging visuals.
Better connectivity and stability: Optimized online play for larger groups.

While we aim to achieve these goals, community input will shape our priorities and determine the final scope.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The Early Access version of Couch Cup is fully playable with:

A functional game loop featuring 12+ mini-games.
Core features like avatar customization and the AI host.
Local and online multiplayer for 3 to 12 players.
A basic progression system with earnable doubloons.

However, some features (like additional mini-games, enhanced visuals, and broader customization options) are still in progress. Players may encounter occasional bugs or areas that need improvement, and your feedback will help us address these.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?
