Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Early Access allows me to develop the game for longer, resulting in more content in the full version. It will also allow me to replace some of the 2D art placeholders with actual handmade art pieces.

The Feedback from Early Access Players also allows for a greater variety in the game. Early alpha tests had already shown that different player vastly differ in their weapon preferences. So the more players test the game and give feedback on their favourite weapons, songs and enemies, the more tastes the game can cater to.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'I am currently planning to release the full version of the game in early to mid 2027. This estimation get's more precise the further along we are in development.'

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

'During the Early Access phase I am planning to implement more content in all aspects of the game. So by the time the full version is released I would like to have added more:
- songs
- weapons
- enemies
- artefacts
- items
- scenarios
- environments
than the current Early Access version contains.'

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

'At this point the game is in the first stage of Early Access. That means it is in a bare bones, yet sellable and enjoyable state. Current features include:
- 3 Enviroments
- (not quite) endless procedural dungeon dive
- Defend the Tavern mode
- a few scenarios
- The Songsmithy to import your own songs and beatmaps
- 9 enemies
- 5 weapons
- 16 artifacts
- 6 usable Items'

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

'I am not planning to change the price during and after leaving Early Access. An occasional promotional discount notwithstanding.'

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

'I am very much looking forward to feedback from and discussions with players on the RiffHammer Discord Server.'
