Neden Erken Erişim?

"Ashen Destiny is a turn based strategy game being built by me, a solo developer, and Early Access is the perfect way to involve the community in shaping its future. The core gameplay is already in place: randomized provinces, turn-based battles, deep general management, and full scale invasions with thousands of troops.

Releasing in Early Access, I can gather feedback, fix balance issues, system behavior, UI enhancements, and late game content all with the help of the players who love strategy as much as I do.

Bu oyun ne kadar süre için Erken Erişim'de olacak?

"I’m currently aiming for around 6 to 9 months in Early Access, though this may change depending on feedback and development progress. My goal is to work closely with the community to track down bugs and improve game balance. If major issues are resolved and the game feels ready, I’ll look at transitioning Ashen Destiny to full release but no timeline is guaranteed.

Erken Erişim versiyonunun tam versiyonundan ne kadar farklı olması planlanıyor?

"I am continuing to develop Ashen Destiny and exploring ideas for future content. While nothing is guaranteed, the following features are currently being considered and may be implemented later, depending on feasibility and community feedback. These are not promises, but possibilities we are excited to explore:

Diplomacy: I'm looking into the potential for alliances, negotiations with other warlords, and the possibility for joint invasions.

Devotion System: A more developed system might be explored to impact province stability and add more depth to events such as natural disasters.

As development continues, I'll be listening closely to player feedback to help guide what features are prioritized or adjusted.

Natural Disasters: Random events like floods or droughts that impact your strategy and resource management.

Tutorial System: A proper in game tutorial to guide new players through the core mechanics and strategic options.

Possible Full Controller Support: To make Ashen Destiny more accessible for players across different platforms, if there is a high demand.

These potential additions along with ongoing bug fixes, AI adjustments, and UI improvements are ideas I'm exploring as we continue development. Nothing is final, and any future changes will depend on time, resources, and community feedback."

Erken Erişim sürümünün şu anki durumu nedir?

"Ashen Destiny already features a fully playable and stable core game loop. Players can invade enemy provinces, conquer and defend their own territories, and expand their empire across the map. The systems for acquiring and managing generals are in place, allowing players to assign unit types and build custom armies within each province.

Resource management is a key pillar of the gameplay. Players can improve individual provinces, move generals and supplies between controlled regions, and strategically allocate resources to strengthen their position. A working trade system is available through a traveling merchant, where players can purchase supplies or sell valuable items they've discovered through mining operations.

Additionally, players have the option to delegate province control to AI, reducing micromanagement and letting them focus on larger scale strategies.

Ashen Destiny is fully playable and already offers hours of strategic depth and replayability."

Erken Erişim sırasında ve sonrasında oyunun fiyatı değişecek mi?

"No. Ashen Destiny will not increase in price after early access is completed. "

Topluluğu, geliştirme sürecine nasıl dahil etmeyi düşünüyorsunuz?

"I'm building Ashen Destiny as a solo developer, and I know that the best strategy games thrive on feedback, balance discussions, and strong communities. I’ve set up a dedicated Discord server where I’ll be actively listening to players, discussing ideas, and answering questions personally.

I’m hoping to connect with a few passionate players who love this genre as much as I do people who want to ask questions, suggest features, and eventually help shape the future of the game.
