What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access is an astoundingly terrible medium for distributing and selling
digital software. Imagine buying a ticket to the Zoo
only to find that they haven't put any animals in the empty habitats because
the entire staff only includes one zookeeper (played by Kevin James), a janitor
that only works for cheeseburgers, and a lost dog that roams the empty zoo;
with such a thin budget they can't afford the glass walls and fencing that
would keep the animals in their habitats, but thought "Hey, let's just sell the
tickets anyway and we can use that money to get some animals eventually..."
Think about this story the next time you buy your melted ice cream from the
"Early-Access" creamery that hasn't implemented freezers into their business model.

You wouldn't pay full-price to see a few scenes from a movie that hasn't been finished.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Shot In The Dark will be in early access for a very short amount of time. We plan on completing all remaining aspects of Shot In The Dark by mid July 2015.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?
