¿Por qué Acceso anticipado?

“"No army can withstand the strength of an idea whose time has come."

Area Zero fights to be itself at a time when fake and artificial are fashionable. Above all else, it seeks to be a gritty, back-to-basics fighting game, but not simply a throwback to what has already been done.

Feedback through early access will aid in the development of the 3 remaining characters and help refine the existing roster.

The software is primed for an implementation of roll back net code, keeping a strict separation between game simulation and rendering. Early access will allow for feedback as these systems are brought online.”

¿Cómo tienes planeado involucrar a la comunidad en tu proceso de desarrollo?

“I am a solo developer, and it is easy for me to overlook issues simply because I am intimately familiar with how the system is intended to work. I need constructive feedback to keep me in check and to expose issues.

Early adopters can provide feedback through the Contact page on the Ephemeral Technical Arts website. This feedback will aid in determining what tasks I focus on for upcoming releases.”
