为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“Rise of the Dark Tower is a systems-driven roguelite where balance, replayability, and player skill are key. We aim to use Early Access as a way to fine-tune the game based on real player experiences. By involving the community early, we plan to iterate on mechanics, improve progression, and introduce new content in a way that reflects what players actually want. Our goal is for Rise of the Dark Tower to be more than just challenging—it should feel fair, deep, and rewarding. Early Access is the best path to achieving that vision.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“We plan to remain in Early Access until October 2025. This timeline gives us room to expand content, polish mechanics, and integrate player feedback into all aspects of the experience. Our goal is to release version 1.0 as a well-rounded, content-rich roguelite that has been meaningfully shaped by the community.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“The full version of Rise of the Dark Tower is planned to include significantly more content, deeper systems, and a fully fleshed-out endgame. While Early Access focuses on establishing the core loop—combat, progression, and early Tower levels—we aim to expand on that with additional bosses, enemies, floors, abilities, and more. The complete version is intended to build on a solid foundation and deliver a richer, more complete experience.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“The Early Access version includes the first few floors of the Tower, featuring a variety of enemies, traps, and randomized loot. Players can explore different room types, experiment with the core mechanics, and develop distinct combat styles using the initial selection of relics and skills.

We’ve also introduced the game’s first major boss fight, designed to serve as both a milestone and a glimpse into the difficulty curve ahead. While the core systems—combat, exploration, loot, and progression—are in place, content remains limited, and we plan to continue adjusting balance based on player feedback.

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“Yes. We aim to keep Early Access free so that as many players as possible can try Rise of the Dark Tower, share feedback, and contribute to its growth. Once the game reaches version 1.0 and is fully developed, we plan to release it as a paid title. This model allows players to experience the core game risk-free during development, while supporting the final, polished version upon release.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“Community involvement is central to how we plan to shape Rise of the Dark Tower during Early Access. As a roguelite, the game benefits greatly from iteration—balancing mechanics, refining progression, and evolving content. To do this effectively, we aim to center development around direct player feedback.

We plan to engage actively with the community through Steam discussions and social media, gathering input on everything from combat feel and item balance to enemy design and meta-progression. Devlogs and experimental branches are also in the works, so players can test upcoming features and help steer their direction.

Ultimately, we aim to build a roguelite that evolves alongside its community—one that’s not just fun to play, but also rewarding to grow with.”
