เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“Juicicora is a game about sharing a world with other people, and that is not something we
can finish on our own. We can test the jumping, the dashing and the fruit powerups all day,
but we cannot predict what five friends will do with them at once, which corners of the
world they will fall in love with, or which ones they will ignore. Early Access lets us put
the game in front of real players and let their feedback shape what we build next, while
the game is still soft enough to change.”

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“We are planning on roughly a year in Early Access, though we would rather leave when the
game is ready than leave on a date. We will keep the roadmap and our progress against it
public as we go, so it is always clear where things stand.”

เวอร์ชันเต็มได้ถูกวางแผนไว้ให้แตกต่างจากเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาอย่างไร?

“We plan to grow Juicicora outward in every direction. More of the world to explore, including
larger open regions beyond the starting area. More dungeons and bosses beyond the Dimensional
Rift and the sky temple. More fruit powerups and alchemy recipes to combine them. More
villagers to befriend, with more quests and minigames tied to them. More cosmetics for your
Soul. Alongside the new content we plan to keep deepening what is already there, and to spend
real time on polish, performance and online stability based on what players run into.”

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“Juicicora is playable from start to finish today. You create a Soul, learn the movement in a
short tutorial, and head into a hand-built world with villagers to talk to, gems and
ingredients to gather, an alchemy table for mixing fruit powerups, and cosmetics to dress up
in. The full movement kit is in: jumping, hovering, swimming, wall jumps, dashes, charged
ground slams, homing attacks and projectile fruits. There are dungeons to run, including a
sky temple with a boss at the end, and a day and night cycle over all of it.

Online co-op for up to five Souls per world is in and playable. It is also the newest part of
the game and the part most likely to show rough edges, so expect us to be working on it
throughout Early Access. The world will keep growing too -- what is here now is a solid slice
of what we want Juicicora to become, not the whole of it.”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“We plan to raise the price as the game grows and we ship new regions, dungeons and features.
Players who join us in Early Access get it at its lowest price, and never pay again for the
content we add.”

คุณกำลังวางแผนให้ชุมชนมีส่วนร่วมในขั้นตอนการพัฒนาของคุณอย่างไร?

“The Steam discussion boards are the main place to reach us -- bug reports, ideas and
complaints all land there and we read them. We plan to post the roadmap publicly and update
it as priorities shift, and to be open about why something moved. When a change comes
directly from a player's suggestion, we will say so in the patch notes. Above all we want to
hear how your worlds actually play out, because that is the part we cannot test ourselves.”
