Kenapa Akses Awal?

“Thug Arena is in Early Access because the game is at a playable state, but there are many things we still want to add. We can make no promises that these things will ever arrive in the game, but we are working on making all of the below features:

Additional weapons: explosives such as rocket launchers, grenades and Molotov cocktails, melee weapons such as katanas and chainsaws.
Additional game modes: team deathmatch, capture the flag, king of the hill, zombies, oddball.
Singleplayer challenge modes.

We are two brothers making the game in our pastime. Our goal has always been to release the game in early access as soon as it's genuinely fun to play. With a complete, working game loop in place, that moment is now.

Early Access means we can build the game alongside the people playing it. Ongoing community feedback will guide what we add, change, and improve as development continues.”

Berapa lama permainan ini dijangka akan berada dalam Akses Awal?

“We expect Thug Arena to be in Early Access for approximately one year. This is not a promise, but it is our feeling that the above features are probably implemented around 2027 July.
It took us one year to make Thug Arena to the point of a playable and fun Early Access game through evening and weekend development. We plan to keep working on the game to bring all our ideas into the game.”

Apakah perbezaan yang dirancang antara versi penuh dan versi Akses Awal?

“Currently the game features a deathmatch game mode, 4 different weapons, and 3 different cars. We hope to add more of all.

Different game modes:
Right now, Thug Arena has a Deathmatch mode, where players kill each other to reach a certain kill score to determine the winner.
We additionally want Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, King of the Hill, Oddball, Zombies, and singleplayer challenge game modes. When and if these game modes arrive, we can't say, other than that we hope to have them as soon as possible ourselves!

Additional weapons:
We would love for the game to have explosives, melee weapons, and more unique weapons such as rocket launchers, grenades, grenade launchers, katanas, chainsaws, flamethrowers, potentially ray guns, blink daggers, energy swords etc. We can make no promises on what the final version of the game will contain, as that depends on development time as well as gamefeel or need.

Additional visuals in the game for vehicles, buildings and other terrain.”

Bagaimanakah keadaan semasa versi Akses Awal?

“The game is at a playable state on LAN and self-hosted servers. We are working on setting up a public server.

The game has a deathmatch game mode where players compete to be the first one to reach a certain number of kills. More game modes are planned.

The game features 4 weapons: pistol, shotgun, sniper, machine gun. More weapons are planned.

The game has a map editor for players to make new maps. This map editor is fully ready and functioning.”

Adakah harga permainan ini berbeza semasa dan selepas Akses Awal?

“We plan to keep the game at its current price after Early Access.

We have priced the game currently in its Early Access stage at a value where we feel the game and its potential is worth it. However, the final price of the game may be lower, higher or the same as it currently is. We will determine the final price based on player interest and success during our Early Access stage.”

We currently have a hundred things we want to add ourselves, and we can make no promises on what will arrive in the game, but any great ideas that inspire us will be prioritised!”
