Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'I need time to see what issues come up and fix them on different devices. I plan to add features to the game, especially if it gets interest. This is the first game I have published, so getting feedback early will help to avoid taking it in the wrong direction.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Two years or less. I would most likely be looking to move away from early access in October or November of 2027. If the game gets a lot of interest, I will update it more frequently. I will more than likely add content and features even after I take it out of early access. '

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Here are the concepts I am currently focused on and exploring for potential future updates:

-Electricity: I am exploring the possibility of adding wood and coal generators. I may consider implementing powerful, late-game sources, such as nuclear power tiles.

-Automation: I am investigating the addition of automated construction and repair machines to help manage your base remotely.

-Defense: I am exploring designs for new defenses, such as automatic anti-missile turrets and a novel shield generator mechanic.

-AI Opponents: I aim to develop AI opponents for single-player play.

-Player Guidance: I plan to create additional structured content, such as a focused tutorial or a small campaign to guide new players.

The highest priority is stability and performance, and potentially allowing the game to run on mobile devices.

-World Expansion: I expect to add more types of tiles and new map layouts as development progresses.

-Performance Scaling: I am actively investigating ways to improve performance for massive worlds significantly. This involves a technical effort to reduce the number of game objects by consolidating map geometry and textures. These changes may allow for much larger, more expansive maps in the future.

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The game is already a fun, playable experience, even in its current Early Access state. Everything described in the game's product description is fully playable and implemented at this time. The core loop is fully functional, offering an engaging game as is. Lots of small quality-of-life features are not in the game that you would expect in a finished game. (Missing options menu buttons, animations, and other similar stuff that do not affect the gameplay)'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'The price will likely not change.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'Community feedback is the central focus of our Early Access period. I plan to actively involve players through the official Discord server.

Bug Reporting: I strongly encourage players to report any technical issues or bugs they encounter directly on the Discord. If it is broken, give me a chance to fix it.

Feature Ideas: I welcome all suggestions for new content, mechanics, and quality-of-life improvements.

I will try to read all submissions and, if the ideas are useful and align with the game's long-term vision, I will implement them as my time allows. This direct communication loop is essential for guiding the game's direction.'
