Miksi Early Access?

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.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

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.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

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.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

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

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

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

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

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