Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'UmbraNet in Early Access represents a playable but incomplete experience. Core gameplay systems and atmosphere are in place, while additional mechanics, story elements, and refinements are planned for future updates.

If you enjoy psychological horror, experimental gameplay, and being involved in the development process, Early Access offers a chance to experience UmbraNet as it evolves. If you prefer a fully polished and complete experience, you may wish to wait until development is further along.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'UmbraNet is planned to remain in Early Access until approximately early 2027. Development will continue throughout this period, with regular updates, feature expansions, and refinements based on player feedback.

The exact duration may change depending on development progress and community input, but the goal is to reach a full 1.0 release when the core experience is complete and polished.'

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

'The full version of UmbraNet is planned to expand significantly on the Early Access experience. Version 1.0 will feature a more complete narrative, additional gameplay systems, and expanded environments that deepen the psychological horror and immersion.

The full release is intended to include refined mechanics, improved pacing, enhanced audio and visual presentation, and overall polish based on feedback gathered during Early Access. Performance optimizations, accessibility improvements, and quality-of-life features are also planned.

Early Access focuses on establishing the core systems and atmosphere, while the full version aims to deliver a cohesive, fully realized experience.'

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

'The Early Access version of UmbraNet is currently in an active development state. The core gameplay foundation is in place, including basic interaction systems, environmental mechanics, and the overall psychological horror atmosphere.

Players can experience the central themes, tone, and direction of the game, but content and features are still limited compared to the planned full release. Some systems are incomplete or subject to change, and additional gameplay mechanics, narrative elements, and polish are planned for future updates.

As development continues, the Early Access version may receive frequent adjustments, improvements, and experimental features. Bugs, missing content, and balance changes should be expected as part of the ongoing development process.'

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

'UmbraNet is planned to be offered at a lower price during Early Access. As development progresses and new content, features, and polish are added, the price may increase by the time of the full 1.0 release.

Early Access pricing is intended to reflect the current state of the game and to reward early supporters who choose to participate in the development process.'

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

'Community feedback plays an important role in the development of UmbraNet. During Early Access, player feedback will be gathered through Steam forums, community discussions, and direct reports from players.

Feedback will be used to help guide improvements to gameplay systems, balance, usability, and overall pacing. Community suggestions may influence future features, quality-of-life improvements, and refinements to existing mechanics.

While not all feedback can be implemented, the development process aims to remain open and responsive, with regular updates and communication to keep players informed about ongoing changes and future plans.'
