Miksi Early Access?

WALLMATE is a desktop AI companion that allows real-time conversations with lifelike virtual characters.
While the core features — voice chat, character motion, and basic persona customization — are already implemented,
we are launching in Early Access to refine emotional responses, improve animation quality, and enhance conversation immersion based on user feedback.
Our goal is to evolve from a technical MVP into a deeply emotional, daily companion experience — together with our community.

Miten kauan Early Access -vaihe suunnilleen kestää?

We plan for the Early Access period to last around a few months, though the exact duration may vary.
During this phase, we aim to gather player feedback, enhance dialogue accuracy, and refine the UX/UI for better day-to-day usability.
The overall schedule may evolve based on development progress and community input.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

The full version is planned to include various improvements and additional features such as:
A more expressive emotional system — with facial expressions, tone, and gestures that we aim to make react naturally to conversation.
Expanded persona customization — allowing users to further define their companion’s personality, tone, and worldview.
Continued development of voice recognition and dialogue models — for smoother, more natural interactions.
Potential character-to-character interactions — where companions may respond dynamically to one another.
Broader language support — including Korean, English, Japanese, and others we plan to explore over time.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

The Early Access version currently includes:
Real-time voice conversations with AI characters
Always-on desktop companion mode
Two default avatars (male and female)
Basic persona settings
Token-based dialogue system (tokens consumed per conversation)
It’s fully playable, but ongoing improvements to character emotion and customization are planned.

Hinnoitellaanko sovellus toisin Early Accessin aikana ja sen jälkeen?

We plan a slight price increase upon the full release, reflecting the addition of new content such as voice packs and character DLCs.
Early Access players will keep full access to all core features and updates at no additional cost.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We plan to gather player feedback through an official Discord server and the Steam Community Hub.
We intend to share development updates and roadmap information periodically, depending on progress.
Players who contribute helpful feedback or testing reports may be recognized or rewarded in future builds as part of community engagement plans.
