เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“Previously when I was developing FINAL PROFIT, I waited until release to make the game available to the public. That ended up harming the reach and visibility, so this time with OIL TOWN I am trying a different method by going Early Access. I also develop best by seeing how players play, so putting it in your hands earlier will allow me to make a better game.”

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“I'm aiming to complete the game within the year.”

เวอร์ชันเต็มได้ถูกวางแผนไว้ให้แตกต่างจากเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาอย่างไร?

“After the opening phase of the game where we are working to save enough to buy the land we need, I plan to expand into another phase where we will have to operate our own well from scratch without the infrastructure available in the opening phase, eventually growing our base area to the point where a lot of the tasks are handled by worker NPCs and machines. There is also an end goal for the story that I am working towards.”

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“The first phase is completable, but there are still subsystems that I need to finish implementing to flesh out the experience and make it richer. Refer to the "About This" section below for details on the current state.”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“My plan is to increase the price when leaving early access.”

คุณกำลังวางแผนให้ชุมชนมีส่วนร่วมในขั้นตอนการพัฒนาของคุณอย่างไร?

“I would love for feedback, either through the Steam forums here or over on Discord (there is an Oil Town channel in the Final Profit Discord. I also post a live development log there for those interested).

If you plan to stream the game, do let me know and I'll try to catch it, that is one of the best ways for me to see how players are interacting with the game.”
