Почему ранний доступ?

«I was only going to publish at first when my game was to my complete stage. But after talking with my wife about it one night I changed my perspective on it because over the past couple years since collecting marketing data I have come to understand that early access can create a strong bond between the creator and their target audience. Designers see it as an opportunity to let their fan base behind the scenes and players can purchase the content much cheaper than it will be later. This also presents the opportunity to get real world feedback right away and in time to make any necessary changes before too much progress is made on top of them. »

Сколько примерно эта игра будет в раннем доступе?

«4-8 months depending on artist acquisition and contracted time of their works expected completion.»

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

«When early access is finished and taken off market for the final game polish I plan to have completed the roster, a variety of different battle fields to choose from and enhanced in game and match settings such as a choice of win conditions.»

Каково текущее состояние версии в раннем доступе?

«The current status of the game allows the player to fully experience all of the controls featured in the game that will be shared with all other characters in the roster as well as how each character has features unique to them such transforming between forms and controlling a fired guided rocket as a special ability. Also represented is the level and skill unlock system as well as npcs with multiple behavior systems, some patrol until an enemy is spotted and attack, some attempt to flee to signal an alarm, some will only chase until they follow you around a corner and don't see you and some will stop following as soon as they lose line of sight. Experience gaining, leveling up, stat modification, flying, swimming, diving, climbing, and enemy encounters in each are already available for the players as well, including selecting between each form of the first playable character to do so in the menu and in game transformation in the free demo. Experience, leveling up, spending stat points, and they functionality of increasing each stat has now been fully implemented as well.»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«Yes the title will start out at its current price and increase with progress up to its polish stage. It will stay at that state and price while I collaborate with my acquired artist on final art and polish, and then be published as a full release for its full price. If early release profits exceed expected margins then everyone who owned a copy up to its polish stage will receive a copy of the official release free of charge in thanks for their part in supporting its growth.»
