¿Por qué Acceso anticipado?

“In its current form, Theden is an enjoyable experience with hours of content. There are hundreds of items and dozens of locations, NPCs, and enemies to encounter. But a story isn't told with one chapter: as much as you can already do, there's a lot more to experience! The full story of Theden is five chapters long, culminating in the final battle against The Engineer.

As the game is developed, players are instrumental in making suggestions, reporting bugs, and voting on issues that impact everyone's gameplay. The developers are working closely with the community to make Theden fun and offer something for everyone, from streamers to solo players, children to adults, casual players to hardcore gamers.”

¿Cuánto tiempo va a estar este juego en Acceso anticipado aproximadamente?

“Theden is planned to be in Early Access for approximately 2 years. Currently, the development team intends to release one small patch every month and a new chapter every six months.”

¿Qué tan diferente será la versión completa de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“Chapters 2 through 5 are planned to be comparable in size and scope to Chapter 1. The hope is for each chapter to feature new enemies, equipment, items, pets, and NPCs that tell a bit more of the overall story of Theden. In addition, new features are planned for each chapter, including a Salon to change character name and appearance, Mining, Fishing, Cooking, an Adventure Guide, Libraries to transcribe and type lore entries, and player Dwellings.”

¿Cuál es el estado actual de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“Currently, Chapter 1 (Commencement) is in its final, complete form. Edits will only be made in the event of bugs, gameplay tuning, and community suggestions. Much of the artwork for Chapters 2-5 is already complete, and all of the equipment for Chapter 2 has already been created and implemented, though it is not yet accessible to players.”

¿El precio del juego será diferente durante y después del Acceso anticipado?

“At this time, there is no plan to change the price of the game at any point, but players can expect to see a Founders/Deluxe version of the game sold as a DLC after completion of Chapter 5. This optional DLC will give players extra consumables at the start of each game and grant access to a digital player's guide and the Theden OST.”

¿Cómo tienes planeado involucrar a la comunidad en tu proceso de desarrollo?

“Players can join the Theden Official Discord to make suggestions, vote on issues, share gameplay clips and images, gain advance access to information from the Adventure Guide, chat with other players, and see an updated roadmap of future changes and releases.”
