Miksi Early Access?

Unlike the previous journey, I've dedicated my time on The Seeker to make it as much as a community project as possible. I see games as a toy we can all enjoy, if done properly, and with the community, as it is the ENGINE of all games. Without your most valuable feedback, games wouldn't exist, and neither would The Seeker in its current state.

Game, made by the community. Lets make it even better

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

As long as it needs to. While new maps will always come, and the planned full release date is Q1 of 2017, the game is developed by the community, thus if the community is not happy with the product, or simply suggest even more features, the Early Access will stand.

It all goes down on how much you good people want to shape the game, and in which ways.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

The main concept base will always stand, a little drone lost in space in a simple quest to find his owner, however as this is a community game, so it could easily differ a good amount from where we will start.

This is why I added all my efforts into the biggest feature currently, custom skins. You can 101% change The Seeker, its model, colors, textures, flashlight cookies, you can even add addition models, particles, anything you want! Implanting Steamworkshop was the most difficult task for me in a long time and I did it in order for everyone to have a "signature" for themselves in the game.

As with skins I plan to add a level editor to the game, however knowing how difficult it would be its going to take a while, if not 3 months.

Current plans for The Seeker:

• New Upgrades
  
• New Enemies
  
• New Environments (For instance Ice, where you have to constantly find hot generators in order not to die)
  
• New Achievements
  
• New Offical skins
  
• Even more customization to the player
  
• And a lot more!

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Gameplay wise, everything is in order and working.
The game has 4 main upgrades, with 3 currently maps (Vallar, Departure and Mighty), a fully working workshop, in which you can change unlimited amount of skins, made by the community, even make your own skins, and if you know to model, change the skin entirely.

The Randomness works as it should and provides the player a unique gameplay each time, the PAS (Procedural Alarm System) is fully working and can make your game a living nightmare, as it adds new random enemies and turrets, and for the finale the point system is working amazingly well.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

Yes. The starting price is set low as there are only 3 maps, and as features and the community goes the pricing will go up as well, as the community and feedback warrants it.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

Every. Way. Possible. This is a community project and without it this game will fall into the abyss without it. Anything suggested will be taken in account, and the forum will provide a great place to gradually make the game the best experience for the player
