Wozu Early Access?

„Obtaining player feedback early on is really important for the growth of the game, enabling it to be driven in the direction the community wants. For me, releasing in early access is the best way to get that feedback.
The ultimate goal is to have a competitive multiplayer space in the game. This requires ensuring there's an audience for it which will enable funding of next stage of development. Early access is the best way to achieve this goal.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„There is no official release date for the game, I will be in a better position to estimate a date based on the results of post early access launch development.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„Implementing competitive multiplayer will be the greatest change and the game is not expected to come out of early access until it's in a stable working state.

Following player feedback I intend to expand on the current game modes further and create more story driven content.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The game currently has four different game types:

A brief introduction to how the episodic story might play out with Episode 1: "The Tutorial"

A wave based game mode which sees the player defending a power core and themselves against a never ending stream of bots.

A challenge map that has a set amount of targets and weapons that positions the player in a room scale space.

Finally, "The Trial" a challenging game mode in which the player must stock up on supplies first. Then at random modular maps are selected filled with turrets and obstacles for the player to traverse. This is very much an experimental game mode which will be updated and iterated upon very soon.

All game modes have local leader boards so you can challenge your friends at home. One of the first updates will be to bring these leader boards online so you can see how your score compares globally.“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„I expect the price to be higher after Early Access release, as the game will contain many more features and multiplayer along with a higher level of refinement.“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„There will be a developers blog every week on the progress of the game to show the community how development is progressing.

The community will be encouraged to share constructive feedback in the forums and every suggestion will be taken into consideration so that I can make the best version of the game as possible!“
