Почему ранний доступ?

«DiceBeasts is a pet-battler with distinctive mechanics and ideas, but finishing it for full release still takes real work: content, balance, polish, and system iteration. That needs time and resources. Early Access helps with both — players can experience the core loop now and give honest feedback, while we use that real play data (not just internal tests) to guide the game to 1.0.»

Сколько примерно эта игра будет в раннем доступе?

«We plan to stay in Early Access for approximately 3–5 months (targeting spring 2027). This may change if community feedback shows we need more time for balance and content.»

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

«Early Access includes the core loop: pet squads, runs, and elemental dice combat. For 1.0 we plan to expand content and deepen systems, including:

more locations, enemies, and pets;
richer progression and meta systems;
a simple story framework that ties the camp and runs together;
additional camp modes and activities;
balance, UX, and stability improvements.
Plans may change based on player feedback — that’s the point of Early Access.»

Каково текущее состояние версии в раннем доступе?

«At Early Access launch you can expect:

8 pets, each with 2 upgrade branches (more pets and progression options will be added during Early Access);
the Forest location with monsters and boss(es) (more locations, monsters, and bosses will be added during Early Access);
a shared meta progression tree;
a tutorial;
the core loop: build a squad → run → elemental dice combat → camp progression.
The game is still in active development: bugs, balance changes, and occasional save-breaking updates are possible. We’ll call those out in patch notes.»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«Yes. After leaving Early Access we plan to raise the base price by about 20–25%. Players who buy during Early Access will receive all updates through and after the full release at no extra cost.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«We’ll communicate through the Steam Community Hub, Discord, and social media, and possibly YouTube (updates, feedback roundups, patch videos). We’ll post regular news and patch notes, collect bug reports and balance/content suggestions, and highlight changes driven by player feedback.»
