Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'As more and more players experience SHAKE, we want to add new content to encourage players to explore and experiment with the game's mechanics in different settings and contexts. SHAKE currently is not in a state where the developers feel the game is a full release, so we want to be transparent that the game is still currently in development.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'SHAKE will be in early access for as long as the game is unplayable without other players. To elaborate: the game is server-client and currently requires one player to host the game. In the game's infancy, there just is not enough players for a consistent experience unless you coordinate with people outside of the game. However, we still need players to play SHAKE to iterate and improve on the game.

We estimate by the end of the year (2025), through new features and content such as bots, dedicated servers, and the growth of our player base; the game will be in a state where we feel it no longer is in early access. We hope you will stay with us as we develop SHAKE and reach this goal!'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The early access version of SHAKE is minimal as we are focused on players being able to experience the game.

The full release plans on having many new features to encourage customization and replayability of the game.

Some of these potential features include:
- New maps
- Loadouts / new weapon combinations
- New game modes (KOTH, Capture the Flag, etc.)
- Bot support
- Singleplayer (1 v 100 bots)
- Cosmetics (player characters, hats, emotes, new voice lines)
- Classes (preset combinations of weapons and abilities)
- Console ports'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The current version of SHAKE has 3 weapons, 1 map, 1 game mode, customizable servers, and fully working multiplayer through public and private hosting or LAN.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'No. The developers of SHAKE do not want to use SHAKE as a means of profit. The cost of the game is used to cover the time spent developing it, but it will never increase. All future content updates will be free and update the current state of the game.'
