Kenapa harus Akses Dini?

“The initial release of Frustration Factory contains a full "month" of playable levels that are already highly addictive and introduce an enjoyable set of level mechanics. I intend to create about 3 "month"s of levels before releasing a full version. Rather than wait to complete all of these, I would prefer to get early feedback from early adopters so I can take their feedback into account while developing the future components and levels. I expect the game to be dynamically improved based on the received feedback.”

Berapa lama game ini akan berada dalam Akses Dini?

“I am a one-person indie developer who is highly motivated to bring this project to a V1.0 release, but I do expect it will be mid-to-late 2025 by the time it is finished.”

Apa perbedaan antara versi penuh dan versi Akses Dini?

“I plan to develop many new features, levels and game mechanics for the full version. Development time will be spent also improving the user interface, tutorials, the graphical components and general playability. What gets the most attention the fastest will likely be based on received feedback from early adopters as to what is critical before releasing the final version. Besides just reporting bugs, I would love to hear what people think about the game in general. Knowing what levels people find the best or must frustrating will directly impact the future development of the game.”

Apa status saat ini dari versi Akses Dini ini?

“Frustration Factory contains a very playable set of 28 levels already and some beta-testers have actively played for hours unable to walk away, so I know it is already a very viable game. The early-access version already contains the ability to play under multiple profiles, an extra set of achievements to earn, and a set of tutorials that introduces each new game mechanic and level as the player progresses through the first 28 levels.”

Apakah harga game akan berbeda selama dan setelah Akses Dini?

“Final pricing has yet to be decided upon, but it will be higher than the early access releases. As more features and more levels are added the price will go up for all new purchases, but getting in early means you'll get them all as free updates.”

Seperti apakah rencana untuk melibatkan Komunitas dalam proses pengembangan?

“I would love comments and suggestions. My todo list is already very long but would love to hear other suggestions people have for the game. I really need to know what you like about it, what you don't like, and what do you think about after you walk away? What is grabbing your attention? What puzzles/difficulties have you thinking about solutions while out walking, cooking, etc? When do you quit, why? Late for School/Work? Boredom? Exhaustion? Need time to think? All of this feedback have a direct effect on the game development priorities. For example, getting feedback about everyone's favorite features and game mechanics will directly drive the types of future game mechanics and levels under development. Please leave comments directly in the steam reviews or find me on discord on the "frosted axe studios" web page.

I look forward to all your comments!”
