早期アクセスにした理由

“Right now, we have 1/3 of the content we want to release to the players. But we believe that what we have right now provides a fun experience for the players. The Early access will help us to reach the gaming community and receive feedback and suggestions that will allow us to improve the game mechanics to release the most engaging, fun and balanced game experience for the full version.”

このゲームは大体どのくらいの期間早期アクセスですか？

“We think that we will require a year to finish the rest of the content we want to deliver in the final released version. We will add the remaining content gradually during the Early Access. But all depends on the community feedback, we will release the game once we feel that the game has reached the point when the community feels it stable, balanced and fun.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“The full version will have more content (cards, game modes, quests and achievements) and will have the game balance tested by the gaming community. Also, it will have a ranking system for the multiplayer matches. It's important to know that users may lose cards, points or achievements obtained during the Early Access version. We intend to port every asset of the player from Early Access to full release version, but that may not be possible if breaking changes are suggested by the community feedback. In any case, any in-game purchases during Early Access will be honored on the full release version.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“We have a playable game with 1 realm, 1 Soul Caster, 2 single player modes and 1 multiplayer mode ("challenge a friend"). Since it's a strategic game it has a lot of replay value... each match it's different from the one before. We believe that this is a game that will be enjoyable for the people that play few matches or the people that play several hours. We foresee that, in average, a user can obtain all the cards, complete all the quests and experience all the features of the game in around 20 to 40 hours, but continue having fun honing her/his skills against other players.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“No, the game is free to play and, our current plan, is to keep it that way for the full release. In any case, all the items purchased by the player during Early Access will be honored once the game is released.”

どうやって開発プロセスにコミュニティを参加させる予定ですか？

“We are planning to use Steam Forums to gather community feedback and allow the players to report the bugs encountered when playing the game. Also, we want to schedule multiplayer and single player events that will be communicated both on the forums and through in-game announcements, so we can play the game together with the gaming community and receive feedback.

We want to reach the community, so the gamers can help us fine-tune the game mechanics and balance, so when we release an experience that is stable, competitive and fun. We want to produce a great game together!”
