Почему ранний доступ?

«Early Access allows us to refine Vessyl with direct player feedback, ensuring its combat, progression, and world evolve into the best possible experience. By engaging the community early, we can fine-tune mechanics, expand content, and polish the game ahead of its full release.»

Сколько примерно эта игра будет в раннем доступе?

«We expect Vessyl to remain in Early Access for approximately one year. However, this timeline may adjust based on community feedback and development needs to ensure a fully realized experience.»

Чем планируемая полная версия будет отличаться от версии в раннем доступе?

«We plan to expand on the Early Access foundation by pursuing the following ideas:

Additional Room Types
We plan to add at least three additional room types, each designed to bring new challenges and expand gameplay variety. We also hope to refine our existing seven room types, moving them beyond blockout status and working on improved layouts and visuals.

Enhanced Combat
We’re looking into at least three new unlockable combos to deepen the combat experience. These combos may open up new ways to chain normal attacks, stun attacks, and existing abilities, giving players more control and strategic options.

Progression Clarity
We plan to improve how players transition back to the HUB level, hoping to clarify roguelite elements and overall progression between runs.

UI Refinements & Player Customization
We’d like to continue refining the game’s UI, potentially adding new settings such as:
-A camera-behavior toggle for adjusting movement tracking
-Separate volume sliders for SFX, voice, and main audio
-A HUD toggle for players seeking a more immersive interface

These plans may evolve during development as we gather feedback and refine Vessyl. We appreciate everyone’s support in Early Access and will continue to iterate toward the best experience possible based on what we learn.»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«While final pricing has not been determined, Vessyl will change in price. As an indie developer, we feel that the vision we have should hold a price, and we aim to create a game that is worthy of player investment.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«We welcome the community into every part of Vessyl's structure. From pacing, aesthetics, feel, design, and even audio. It is incredibly important that we as developers understand the voice of you, the player.

As a player, the level of investment we ask for is:
- Feedback via discord or Forms.
- Asking questions and offering up ideas within the discord
- Expressing your ideas and feelings with our other social accounts.

We want Vessyl to be the best it can be, and we cant do it without you.»
