Varför Early Access?

“Batak is a game shaped by its players. We want the community involved early to help us tune AI balance, improve the online experience, and decide which features matter most. Early Access lets us develop Batak together with the players who love it.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“We plan to be in Early Access for up to one year.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“We plan to add:
- Steam leaderboards
- Player trinkets and table decorations
- Additional visual themes (steampunk, garden, space, and more)
- Card and table cosmetics (custom card designs, table themes, card effects)
- Continued AI balancing and improvements
- UI and visual polish based on player feedback”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The core game is fully playable. Both Classic Batak and Partnership Batak are complete with full rules, bidding, trump selection, and scoring. Single player works with 3 AI difficulty levels. Online multiplayer supports 1-4 players via Steam with public and friend-only lobbies and AI backfill. The game includes couple of achievements, localization, and a polished interface.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“No. Batak is free to play and we plan to keep it that way.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“We actively monitor Steam Discussions and our Discord server. Player feedback directly influences our development priorities from AI difficulty tuning to new features. Bug reports, feature requests, and balance suggestions are all welcome and taken seriously.”
