Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« Luxmithar is being released in Early Access so development can be shaped alongside its players. The core gameplay loop, wave-based survival, grid expansion, and defensive construction, is already playable, but many systems are still evolving.

Early Access allows me to gather feedback on balance, pacing, progression, and usability while actively continuing development. As a solo developer working on a first commercial release, community input is especially valuable in identifying what works well, what needs refinement, and which areas deserve deeper focus.

The goal of Early Access is to iteratively improve Luxmithar through regular updates, player feedback, and ongoing experimentation, while maintaining a playable and enjoyable experience throughout development. »

Pendant combien de temps environ ce jeu sera-t-il en accès anticipé ?

« The current estimate for Early Access is between 1 and 3 years. Development length may vary depending on feedback, scope adjustments, and iteration needs as the game evolves. »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« During Early Access, development will focus on expanding and refining existing systems rather than delivering a fixed roadmap. Areas currently planned for further development include narrative depth, progression systems, enemy variety, construction and crafting options, user interface clarity, and overall presentation.

The full version is intended to feel more complete in terms of content breadth, balance, polish, and cohesion. Features present in Early Access may be expanded, reworked, or adjusted based on testing and player feedback, and some ideas may change or be replaced as development continues. »

Quel est l'état actuel de la version en accès anticipé ?

« The Early Access version represents an early but playable state of Luxmithar. It includes the core survival loop: wave-based enemy attacks, grid-based world expansion, construction of defenses, resource harvesting, and roguelite-style progression across runs.

While the foundation of the game is in place, many systems are still in an initial form and may lack depth, balance, or polish. Content variety, progression tuning, narrative elements, and audiovisual presentation are actively being iterated on. Players should expect an evolving experience as development continues. »

Le prix du jeu sera-t-il différent pendant et après l'accès anticipé ?

« The game is planned to be available at a lower price during Early Access. As development progresses and the scope and polish of the game increase, the price may be adjusted accordingly. Early Access players will receive the game at the price they purchased it. »

Comment comptez-vous impliquer la communauté dans le processus de développement ?

« Community feedback will play an important role throughout Early Access. Player suggestions, discussions, and shared gameplay experiences will help guide balancing decisions, usability improvements, and feature priorities.

Feedback will be gathered primarily through Steam community discussions, player messages, and direct contact via the support email. Observing how players interact with the game and where friction or confusion occurs will help inform future updates and adjustments. »
