Wozu Early Access?

„Early Access lets me shape Dignaut together with players. As a solo dev building a sci-fi excavation game where digging tools, efficiency, and terrain interactions matter, real feedback is essential. I want to refine how each tool feels, how materials behave, how upgrades shift your digging style, and how the progression unfolds. Community insights help ensure the excavation systems land exactly as intended — deeper, smarter, and more satisfying“

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

„The plan is 6 to 12 months. That gives room to expand the toolset, add new excavation mechanics, introduce fresh biomes and secrets, and iterate on efficiency-based progression. If community feedback shows more time is needed to get these systems right, I’m open to extending the timeline.“

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

„The foundation stays the same, but the full version will feature more biomes, more tools that meaningfully change how you excavate, more material types with unique behaviors, and deeper alien ruin structures. The sci-fi systems will expand as well — scanners, energy tools, and other tech designed with gameplay intention, not just visuals. The goal is refinement and depth, not content for content’s sake.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The game already has its complete loop: excavating terrain, uncovering relics, earning credits, upgrading your first tools, and exploring the initial biomes. The early sci-fi equipment works, the digging feels good, and the core is stable. Each update will build on this, expanding your options for how you excavate — not just how far you go.“

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

„Yes. Early Access will launch at a lower price for early adopters. The price will gradually increase as the game grows toward 1.0 and the excavation systems become more complex.“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„I’ll use Steam discussions, playtests, and roadmap updates to gather feedback. Input on tool feel, material behavior, pacing, and new sci-fi systems will directly shape Dignaut. Community insights will play a major role in evolving the game’s excavation depth and efficiency-focused progression.“
