Why Early Access?

“I've chosen to put Really Fast Rat in early access so I can show off a playable version of the game to the community. Since I started developing this game, I have been testing it with people I know, so I can make the game the best it can be. Now I want to share it with the wider steam community, so we can all work together to make this game the best it can be. (And hopefully squash some bugs along the way). Feel free to give any feedback at all. Every word will be listened to!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Less than one year”

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

“I plan to have more levels and more cosmetic hats for the character, as well as more polish”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is playable. The first area is almost done.
In this version, there are 3 major levels. Each lasting around a minute, give or take 30 seconds. Then, each level has 2 minor levels attached, which focus on a part of the major level, and try to expand on it. There is also a tutorial level and a hub world level.
The game also includes 6 hats. Each major levels contains 2. One that is hidden in the level, and another that is gained when you beat the S Rank time.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will be cheaper during early access, I plan to raise the price when the game is close to being finished”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The community will be there to make sure whatever I put in this game is good. This can range from simple things, such as a rank time being too strict/not strict enough, to something more major like a level being terribly unfun, and needed to be reworked, or major features that you think I am missing out on. Any and all feedback, positive or negative (or neutral if you so wish) will be taken on board. I have a discord server, with some channels dedicated to this game, which you can find the link to on this very store page.”
