Почему ранний доступ?

«AutoCritters is a systems-heavy auto battler with a large cozy overworld layer. While the core gameplay is playable and stable, the full vision includes many additional critters, items, foods, overworld encounters, and progression systems.

Early Access allows the game to grow alongside the community. Player feedback will help shape balance, critter design, item interactions, progression pacing, and new features. Because AutoCritters has many emergent systems interacting with each other, there are a lot of unrefined edges within the game, and observing how players experiment with teams and strategies will directly influence future updates.

The goal of Early Access is to expand the game together with the community while continuing to add new content, polish systems, and evolve the overall experience.»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«The game's price will remain the same throughout early access and release.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«Community feedback will play a major role during Early Access.

Players will be able to share balance feedback, bug reports, and feature ideas through the Steam community hub and the Nucko Games Central Discord. Strategy discussions and player discoveries will help inform balance changes, new critter designs, and additional content updates.

Because AutoCritters revolves around experimentation and team building, observing how players combine critters, items, and food systems will help guide future development and expansion of the game.»
