Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«We're launching Mystic Melee in Early Access because we're continuing to add spells, characters, and levels. The game is both a single-player platformer and a multiplayer platform-fighter, built on a system of unique magic abilities in a physics-based world. As we expand and fine-tune these mechanics, we want to hear from the players.

From balance suggestions and campaign feedback to fresh ideas for abilities and characters, we want your help to make Mystic Melee perfect!»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«The full release is planned to be ready in about 6 months.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«We're working on the following for the full version:

• Additional single-player campaign levels and bosses
  
• More spells and characters
  
• Custom map editor and Steam workshop integration
  
• Improvements to mechanics and abilities based on your input!

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«The Early Access release has four-person multiplayer with both online and local play, plus half of the planned single-player campaign. Specifically, you'll find:

• 4 multiplayer modes: Deathmatch, Hypersphere (basketball with spells!), Obelisks (king of the hill), Blitz (tournament mode)
  
• 30 single-player challenge levels across three worlds
  
• Single-player Leaderboards with ghosts to watch and compete with yourself and others
  
• 30 multiplayer maps
  
• 12 powerful spells and four characters with their own abilities
  
• Bots to play against solo in the multiplayer modes or to fill out games with friends

We feel the game is stable and polished in single-player/local play. We want to note that online play is still in beta and won't be a perfect experience yet especially if there is high latency between players. Still, we think it's a blast to play and want to collect feedback on how to keep improving it.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«No, we do not plan to price the game differently after Early Access.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«We'll post frequent updates in response to discussion here on the Steam community forums. We want to work with you on:

• Balancing the spells and characters
  
• Suggestions for new abilities and levels
  
• Improving the online experience
  
• Fixing rare bugs or hardware related issues

We've shown Mystic Melee at lots of events and found the mechanics and spells have really inspired players to get invested in the game and provide feedback. We look forward to working with the Steam community to make the game better than ever!»
