왜 앞서 해보기를 하나요?

“Sumer is largely done, but ahead of us is the exciting task of adding online multiplayer. Since successfully funding Sumer on Kickstarter, we have had a large number of playtesters asking how they can continue to play Sumer. We want to open the game up to those eager players and welcome them into our community while we continue to balance, polish and develop the last bits of the game!”

이 게임의 앞서 해보기 기간은 얼마인가요?

“Sumer’s Early Access will end when we are confident in the online multiplayer feature. We estimate this to take about a year, but recognize that creating a quality online experience means addressing a lot of unknowns as they come up. Players will be kept up to date with release plans, so if online multiplayer takes longer than expected we’ll be transparent about it.”

정식 버전은 앞서 해보기 버전과 어떻게 달라지나요?

“The Early Access version of Sumer is the full local game. At first Early Access players will be able to play Sumer in its entirety locally with friends or versus AI. Once online is closing in on being finished, we’ll make it available for testing, and release the game soon after! As we develop online play we’ll also be making improvements to various aspects of Sumer including the onboarding experience, game balance and visual polish. Expect to see improvements to the base game during Early Access and further expansions after we release.”

지금 앞서 해보기 버전은 어떤 상태인가요?

“Currently Sumer is a fully playable digital board game! The foundations of the game are all in place and we’ll continue to improve upon them while in Early Access. The current version includes:

• Three competitive game lengths and several tested variants.

• Compatibility with keyboard, mouse and a variety of controllers.

• AI with adjustable difficulty for all games with less than 4 humans.

• Fully accessible interactive tutorials.

앞서 해보기 동안과 앞서 해보기 이후의 게임 가격이 다르게 매겨지나요?

“Yes, we plan to raise the price of Sumer when online play is added and we leave Early Access.”

개발 과정에 어떻게 커뮤니티를 참여시킬 계획이신가요?

“Early Access is our community’s chance to take a deep dive into Sumer and help us achieve our vision. We hope that you will engage with us in discussions of game balance, the onboarding experience and more. When online play becomes available we’ll allow you to opt in to the beta and test it out! As part of our Early Access community, you will be a critical force in helping us improve the online experience. Your gameplay will help us gather analytics of player behavior and game balance. We’ll continue showing Sumer at live playtest events and will host seasonal tournaments. We look forward to meeting you all at these events and on our streams and are excited to see how skilled you become at Sumer!”
