為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「Texplore is in Early Access because it’s still being built and is not content-complete. The current build is playable and represents the core direction of the game (mining/drilling, combat, upgrades, and runs), but major parts are still being expanded and iterated on.

Early Access is how I want to develop Texplore with the community, so players can influence:

Combat feel and difficulty pacing

Progression balance (upgrade costs, resource pacing, run length)

What makes the Moon mechanically distinct from Earth

Which content and systems get prioritized next (bosses/enemies, Moon mechanics, onboarding, progression depth)

This is not a finished game looking for final testing. It’s a playable alpha/beta-style build that will evolve as new content and systems are added and refined.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「Current estimate: 8–14 months. That’s a target range, not a guarantee—development timelines can change as features are tested and iterated on. I’ll keep the store page and Community Hub updated as milestones shift.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「Current Roadmap:

🗺️ Texplore: Development Roadmap

🟢 Currently Live

Earth & Moon: Fully playable environments! Explore, mine, and battle enemies across both worlds, culminating in the Moon Boss encounter.

🟡 Phase 1: The Deep Earth Update (In Development)
Unlocked by defeating the Moon Boss.

Journey to the Core: Return to Earth to break through and mine the newly unlocked, deepest layer of the planet.

Fresh Environments: Brand new tile sets and immersive audio for the deep underground.

New Threats & Treasures: Encounter deadly new enemy types and harvest undiscovered ores.

Exclusive Gear: Forge a powerful, Deep Earth-exclusive weapon to aid your progression.

🟠 Phase 2: The Mars Expansion

A Whole New World: Blast off to the Red Planet! A completely new world built from the ground up.

Martian Challenges: Prepare for alien landscapes, new mechanics, and an epic encounter with the Mars Boss.

🔴 Phase 3: The Deep Moon Update
Unlocked by defeating the Mars Boss.

Lunar Depths: Journey into the core of the Moon. Think Deep Earth, but significantly harder.

Endgame Mining: Extreme challenges, tougher enemies, and the rarest materials for those brave enough to dig deep.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「The Early Access version of Texplore is playable, but it is not content-complete.

Currently included:

Mining/drilling, movement/jetpack, and combat

A working progression foundation (shop/skill upgrades)

Save/load

Earth and Moon are accessible

2 world boss encounters are included, with limited boss/enemy variety overall

Still in progress:

More enemy and boss variety, and better encounter pacing

Moon mechanics that clearly differentiate it from Earth

More guidance/onboarding and smoother UI/UX

Balance tuning across different playstyles

Additional accessibility and quality-of-life options over time

Because systems are still evolving, larger updates may include balance changes and occasional redesigns. I’ll document major changes in patch notes and dev updates.」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「I expect the price may increase over time as major updates add significant content and features and/or when Texplore leaves Early Access. I’m not committing to exact timing for price changes.」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「I plan to collect feedback primarily through Steam Discussions (and potentially Discord), and to share progress through patch notes and periodic dev updates. I also expect to run occasional polls or focused threads around major design decisions (combat feel, Moon mechanics, progression pacing, and what to prioritize next).

Community feedback and play patterns will influence what gets built next and how systems are tuned.」
