Wozu Early Access?

„The Chicken Siege is already a complete, stable game — the full wave-defense loop, dozens of defences and enemy types, daily/weekly/season events, cloud saves and 21 Steam achievements all work end-to-end today. We're choosing Early Access because the game is designed to keep growing, and we want players involved in that growth from the start. Early Access lets us ship the game now, tune balance with real player data, add content shaped by community feedback, and fund continued development while we build toward 1.0. We are committed to this path: the game has a live browser playtest community already, updates ship regularly, and we intend to keep updating the Steam version through Early Access and beyond until the full vision is complete.“

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

„3 months“

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

„During Early Access we plan to add:

New maps and biomes, with fresh terrain rules and layout twists

New chicken enemy types, each with its own behaviour and threat profile

New defences and synergy combos on top of the current 59

New game modes, including an endless mode and boss-rush variants

More relics, perks and meta progression systems

Additional cosmetics, themed farms and seasonal content

New achievements, medals and community-driven event types

Further performance and polish passes, plus quality-of-life changes from player feedback

Everything added during Early Access will be free to our early supporters. The full version's core vision is already in the current build; 1.0 represents the expanded content roadmap above, plus the refinements our players ask for.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The current Early Access build is feature-complete and playable start to finish. It includes the full wave-defense campaign with escalating 50+ wave runs, 59 defences, 25+ chicken enemy types, fusion and synergy systems, daily/weekly/season events, relics, difficulty options and mutators, an in-game encyclopedia, a map editor with a community map gallery, challenge codes, cosmetics and themed farms, run reports and share cards, cloud saves, and all 21 Steam achievements. . The build is stable — it is guarded by a 150+ test automated suite and has been running as a live browser playtest. Everything described in the "About This" section is implemented and playable today; Early Access is about expanding that content and polishing it further.“

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

„We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„The Steam Community forums and discord chat will be the main hub for feedback, bug reports and suggestions, and we read them actively. We plan to run community polls to decide what to add next — new maps, themes, modes and event types — and to invite players onto beta branches to test experimental builds before they go live. We'll post regular dev updates with patch notes so players can follow exactly what changed and why. The game already has player-created content in its DNA: a map editor with a community gallery and shareable challenge codes, so we'll feature standout community maps and challenges in seasonal events. The existing browser playtest community will feed into the same feedback pipeline. Player feedback directly shapes the roadmap, and we will keep the community informed as the game evolves toward 1.0.“
