Proč předběžný přístup?

„ChillTank is a relaxing aquarium game that we want to develop together with its players. The core experience brings together collecting, feeding, growing and breeding fish, alongside decorating your own underwater environments.

Early Access gives us an opportunity to learn how people play over longer periods, improve progression and balancing, and refine performance and usability. Community feedback will help guide which improvements and additional content we prioritize.“

Přibližně jak dlouho bude tato hra v předběžném přístupu?

„We currently expect ChillTank to remain in Early Access for approximately 12 to 18 months. This is an estimate and may change depending on player feedback and the development of planned systems and content.“

Jak se bude plná verze lišit od předběžného přístupu?

„We aim to expand the variety of fish, habitats and decorations while improving progression, balancing, performance and the overall player experience.

We are also exploring larger additions, including tools for creating your own habitats, fishing for rare fish, and running a personal fish store where customers can buy your fish. These features are not currently included in the playable Early Access experience.

These are development goals rather than guaranteed features. Their scope and priority may change as development progresses and we learn from player feedback.“

Co v tuto chvíli nabízí předběžný přístup?

„ChillTank currently offers an offline singleplayer aquarium experience across three habitats: Great Barrier Reef, Bora Bora and Redwood Forest.

Players can purchase fish, feed them, raise their levels and explore their individual traits and values. A purchasable breeding licence unlocks fish breeding. Decorations can be purchased and placed to personalize your habitats, while activities, changing weather and a day-and-night cycle bring variety to the experience.

Progress is stored locally, with support for multiple save slots.

Additional habitats, creating your own habitats, fishing for rare fish and operating a personal fish store are not currently available. Players should expect bugs and ongoing adjustments to balancing, performance and the interface during Early Access.“

Změní se cena hry po skončení předběžného přístupu?

„We plan to gradually increase the price as substantial new content and features are added during Early Access. The final price at or near the full release is expected to be higher than the initial Early Access price. Any price changes will be communicated in advance through Steam announcements.“

Jak plánujete do vývoje zapojit komunitu?

„We plan to use the Steam Community discussions to collect feedback, bug reports and suggestions, and to share progress through announcements and changelogs.

We are particularly interested in feedback on long-term progression, fish breeding, habitat decoration, usability and performance across different hardware.

Community feedback will help us identify problems and set priorities. While we cannot implement every suggestion, we want players to have a meaningful voice in how ChillTank develops.“
