Почему ранний доступ?

«We have made some of the best game products when those playing them have been able to let their imaginations fill in blanks that only real users see first. Sometimes the valuable infor got relayed directly at meetups or at conferences, much of the time it occurred through group chat and persistent bulletin boards. When you play with and explore our ideas, and concepts we see what makes you happy sooner and hear what might make you want to stay and play. We tailor subsequent releases to make our most devoted players happy as often as we can. We have years of experience getting good feedback and ideas that resonate and make genre/world changing games. We develop our games and collect and connect on your feedback, to bring joy to our players.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«We want you, the player, to be deeply involved with the development and direction of the game.

We have deep backgrounds in Game Art, Animation, Design and Prototyping, making good experiences and challenging games. We continue to elevate the product so it reminds people of past best-in-class: SIMs, Adventures and RPGs. We also are making content that hopefully will remind users of things they watched obsessively on a paid streaming services if not surpass them in pathos.
