为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“The Aurora Chronicles is an episodic visual novel with plans for 24 episodes across 4 acts. Early Access allows me to release completed episodes progressively while gathering player feedback on story pacing, character development, and gameplay features. As a solo developer, this approach lets me refine later episodes based on community response to earlier ones, aiming to create a better overall experience. I want players who are excited about episodic sci-fi storytelling to experience the series as it unfolds and provide feedback on pacing, presentation, and quality-of-life features.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“I anticipate Early Access lasting approximately 2-3 years as I release episodes progressively. Each act contains 6 episodes, and I plan to release new episodes regularly throughout the Early Access period as I work toward completing all 24 episodes.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“Early Access begins with the first episodes of the story. I plan to expand the game to include all 24 episodes across 4 complete story acts, along with additional polish based on player feedback and quality-of-life improvements suggested by the community. I also aim to add features like enhanced cross-platform save functionality and localization as development continues.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“The initial Early Access release includes the first two fully playable episodes with complete voice acting, original music, and all artwork. Core gameplay systems including the visual novel interface, save/load functionality, and cloud saves are fully implemented. Players can experience approximately 2-3 hours of story content.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“I plan to gradually raise the price as I add new content. My intention is for players who purchase early to receive all future episodes at no additional cost. I expect to increase the price after each act (6 episodes) is completed, rewarding early supporters with the best value.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“I plan to maintain active communication through social media and community spaces, sharing development progress and updates regularly. Players can report issues, suggest quality-of-life improvements, and provide feedback on pacing and presentation. While the story is fully outlined, community input helps me refine the experience—things like interface preferences, accessibility options, and technical polish.”
