Varför Early Access?

“This game is being made by a solo developer, so progress is not super-fast. As such, Early Access is important for MIS for a few reasons:

• Build Community! I want to make sure the community gets to play the game's progress as I work on it. Feedback, ideas, bug-reports, and anything else to help drive this game to be one we can all love!
  
• Raise Funds! I've been fortunate enough to receive some start-up funding, but it isn't enough to cover the project's full development. Getting additional funds along the way means I can properly dedicate time and effort into making this game as amazing as possible!

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

“About 2 years. I am hoping to release the first Early Access build by mid 2026, and I am planning to release the full game by late 2027.”

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

“I am planning for the initial Early Access build to feature the initial stages of gameplay and content, ideally a standard gameplay run with some introductory stories. My on-going plan is to use periodic updates to expand both the gameplay and story, as I hope to add new worlds and stories, as well as many more ways to navigate and interact with the game. My goal is to continue to expand and improve the universe of the game, providing players more ways to experiment and explore.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The current state of the project is an introductory experience; a smaller galaxy to explore with limited stories, mechanics and unlockables.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Very likely, yes. I respect that players will want to pay for what they get at the time of purchase. As such, the Early Access builds will be priced lower than what is the expected Full Release price.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Through feedback and community forums, I want to ensure that I am always working to make a game people will love. Don't get me wrong, I'm also making this game because I love it and want to play it, but this isn't just for me. It's for everyone who appreciates these genres and styles, and I want to ensure everyone who is keen gets a voice!

Even at the prototype phase, player feedback helped guide many ideas and quality of life tweaks. Everything from suggestions to bug-fixes will be taken into consideration. Through the game's development, I also hope to work to include modding capabilities, opening up Workshop and other free community content options.
