Почему ранний доступ?

«Inside Job is a game about a prison that has to feel like a real, working system - guards on schedules, routines that repeat, and gaps you are supposed to find on your own. How well that holds up is something we can only learn from watching people actually play it, especially in co-op, where four players will break a plan in ways we would never think of. We would rather build the rest of this game with those players than guess at it for another year in private.»

Сколько примерно эта игра будет в раннем доступе?

«We are planning for roughly twelve months. That is an estimate, not a promise - if the game needs longer to be worth its full release, it gets longer. We would rather move the date than ship something half-finished.»

Чем планируемая полная версия будет отличаться от версии в раннем доступе?

«We are working towards more prison's to break out of - additional areas and more than one way through them - so that a second run does not repeat the first. We also want to deepen what happens between players: better tools for coordinating, and more ways for a plan to fall apart because of the people in it rather than the guards. Beyond that, the roadmap is deliberately open, because a good part of it should come from what Early Access players tell us.»

Каково текущее состояние версии в раннем доступе?

«The prison is fully playable solo and in co-op for up to four players. A day runs on a real schedule - cell time, block, chow hall, yard and headcount - and the guards run on it too, with patrol routes, sightlines and a suspicion system that reacts to where you are and what you look like. You can pick up and craft what you find, hide it, work doors and keypads, and you will be caught and dealt with if you get it wrong. What is not in yet: no controller support, no voice chat, and the prison is one location rather than several.»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«Yes. The Early Access price is lower, and we expect to raise it when the game leaves Early Access. Everyone who buys during Early Access keeps the game and gets every update at no extra cost.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«We read the Steam discussions and our Discord, and we would rather hear about a broken plan than a polite one. Co-op bugs in particular are close to impossible to find without players - if you can tell us what four people were doing when it went wrong, that is worth more to us than any bug report form. We post what we are working on as we go, including the parts that are not working.»
