Wozu Early Access?

„We chose Early Access because Beltix is driven by player-built systems, and the most valuable insights come from seeing how real players use those systems in practice.

While the core sandbox is already playable, Early Access allows us to observe how players build, optimize, and push the logic tools in ways that cannot be fully anticipated during internal development. This feedback helps us refine usability, clarity, balance, and performance based on real usage rather than assumptions.

Early Access gives us the opportunity to iterate together with the community while the foundation of the game is already stable and enjoyable in its current form.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„We estimate the game will remain in Early Access for approximately 6-8 months.
This window accommodates:
- incremental expansion of systemic gameplay modules
- iterative performance optimization across scales
- structured community testing cycles with measurable feedback loops

The timeline is adaptive and will be adjusted based on both technical readiness and community-driven milestone achievements.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„The Early Access version focuses on a fully playable core sandbox that allows players to build and experiment with logic-driven systems.

The full version is intended to represent a more refined and mature version of this same foundation. Differences are expected to primarily come from improvements to usability, clarity, balance, and overall stability, informed by player feedback gathered during Early Access.

The overall design philosophy of the game remains focused on logic-driven sandbox gameplay.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The current build represents a fully playable core simulation platform.
Present capabilities include:
- placement and interaction of modular components across a continuous grid
- runtime execution of combinators, logic, counters, and routing systems
- emergent behaviors from user-authored constructs
- reliable core loop with deterministic state updates and save persistence.“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„Yes. We plan to launch the game in Early Access at a lower price and increase the price when the game will be fully released.

The Early Access price reflects the current sandbox-focused feature set and ongoing development state. As additional systems, content, polish, and long-term improvements are added throughout development, we plan to raise the price for the full release to reflect the expanded scope and maturity of the game.

Players who join during Early Access will receive all future updates at no additional cost.“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„Community participation will be integrated into the development pipeline as a real data source and systems validation channel:

Structured feedback channels (discord, surveys) to gather reproducible reports.

Public development logs and technical metrics to communicate iteration progress.

User-driven balancing experiments—we will analyze how players leverage systems and optimize features accordingly.“
