Γιατί Πρόωρη πρόσβαση;

«As a solo developer, I've built Monkey Fruit Fight's multiplayer experience from scratch, including custom AWS server infrastructure that I've thoroughly tested with bots and controlled scenarios.
The game is stable and performs well, but I want to gather real player data to fine-tune gameplay balance with community feedback.
Early Access also allows me to finalize controller support and local couch multiplayer. I may also potentially develop advanced features like ranking systems in future updates. »

Για περίπου πόσο καιρό θα είναι αυτό το παιχνίδι σε Πρόωρη πρόσβαση;

«Approximately 1-2 months. My server infrastructure is proven and stable, but I need real player data to perfect gameplay balance and collect metrics that may inform future competitive features.
This focused period lets me analyze actual player behavior while completing the remaining core features.»

Σε τι θα διαφέρει η τελική έκδοση από την έκδοση Πρόωρης Πρόσβασης;

«-Provide better server coverage as the player base grows. For example: Asia and Latin America - or anywhere there is demand (and AWS has a region)!
-Steam Deck support and other handheld devices
-Enhanced gamepad/controller support
-LAN play
-Direct connection hosting (allowing friends to connect directly without using AWS servers)
-Gameplay balance refinements based on real player data
-Performance optimizations and quality-of-life improvements
-Potential future features like ranking systems may be considered based on community interest
-In the near future (probably not for full-release); more maps and potentially the possibility to use player maps»

Ποια είναι η τρέχουσα κατάσταση της έκδοσης Πρόωρης Πρόσβασης;

«Fully playable with complete online multiplayer (AWS servers). It features 6 maps (with a kickass synthwave soundtrack!), 6 fruit weapons, matchmaking, and DLC skins. The infrastructure has been extensively tested and performs reliably - now I want to refine gameplay balance based on actual player matches.
For the Early Access version I plan on launching with servers in US East, US West and EU Central. I have other regions prepared and can launch as quickly as a few button presses if players want a servers elsewhere.
8 languages localization: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (traditional).»

Το παιχνίδι θα έχει διαφορετική τιμή πριν και μετά την Πρόωρη πρόσβαση;

«Early Access price reflects the current polished core experience. Full release will be approximately 30-40% more expensive, so Early Access buyers will be rewarded for jumping into the Monkey Fruit Fight action early!»

Πώς σκοπεύετε να συμπεριλάβετε την Κοινότητα στην ανάπτυξη του παιχνιδιού σας;

«I will closely monitor Steam forums and engage with players. I have also set up a Discord where you can find players and leave feedback! Moreover, as a solo developer focused on technical implementation, I'm eager for community input to provide fresh perspectives on gameplay balance and usability.
Playing matches helps me gather valuable data for balancing weapons and maps, while also ensuring my networking infrastructure performs flawlessly under real-world conditions.
Feedback on controller compatibility across different devices, including Steam Deck support, will be invaluable as I work to optimize the experience. Input on local multiplayer implementation and any suggestions for quality-of-life improvements will help me perfect the final release.

This is my first game and it has been a passion project for me for the last number of years so I am really excited about the game's release and continued development!»
