Dlaczego wczesny dostęp?

„Deepstone Rift is built around strategic depth, tower synergy, and a growing campaign. Early Access allows us to involve players while the core systems are still expanding. We want to gather feedback on balance, difficulty, tower mechanics, enemy behaviors, and new features such as gates, patrol systems and hero abilities.
Community input will help shape how the combat flow feels, which content to prioritize, and what improvements will make the experience more enjoyable.”
