Why Early Access?

“We chose Early Access because Feria Fiera is a game that benefits greatly from community feedback. As a beat ‘em up, elements such as difficulty, character balance, and level design can be shaped and improved by the players themselves. Early Access allows us to:

Release a solid, playable foundation while continuing to add new content.

Gather valuable feedback to refine combat, enemy design, and overall gameplay.

Involve the community in decisions about future features and priorities.

This gives us the chance to grow the game together with the players, ensuring the final release is as fun and polished as possible.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Feria Fiera to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 months to 1 year. This timeframe will allow us to add more levels, bosses, and features, while also refining the gameplay based on community feedback. Of course, this schedule may shift slightly depending on development progress and the level of community support.”

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

“The full version of Feria Fiera will include more content and improvements compared to Early Access. Our plans include:

Additional levels and new bosses.

Expanded roster of playable characters. ((point to consider)

Gameplay balance adjustments and quality-of-life improvements.

Polishing of art, animations, and audio.

Depending on community support, we may also consider expansions or extra content after release.”

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

“The final version will also have a slightly higher price to reflect the additional content and improvements, but the increase will be modest.”

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

“The community will play a key role in the development of Feria Fiera. We plan to involve players in the following ways:

Direct feedback: players will be able to share suggestions on character balance, enemy difficulty, and new content ideas.

Polls and voting: we will hold periodic polls to decide which characters, modes, or features should be prioritized.

Communication channels: we will use Steam forums and [Discord/social media] as the main spaces to gather feedback and keep players updated about development progress.

In short, we want Early Access players to feel like an active part of the process, helping us shape the final experience.”
