Kenapa Akses Awal?

“MARCO is built around the unpredictable things that happen when friends try to stay quiet together. As a solo developer, I want feedback from more groups of players to help shape that experience.

Early Access gives me an opportunity to refine the balance between Noisemakers and Noisechasers, improve how the maps play, and explore which interactive props and noisy distractions are the most fun.”

Berapa lama permainan ini dijangka akan berada dalam Akses Awal?

“I currently expect MARCO to remain in Early Access for approximately one to two months. This is an estimate, and the timing may change depending on player feedback and any issues discovered during development.

My priorities are reliable multiplayer, consistent tagging, and a fun balance between hiding, hunting, and making trouble.”

Apakah perbezaan yang dirancang antara versi penuh dan versi Akses Awal?

“I plan to improve multiplayer reliability, performance, animations, sound balance, and the consistency of tagging and movement.

I also intend to refine the existing maps and explore additional interactive props, voice effects, and environmental distractions. Community feedback will help determine which ideas fit MARCO best and where development effort should go.”

Bagaimanakah keadaan semasa versi Akses Awal?

“MARCO’s core multiplayer hide-and-seek experience is playable. Players can host and join Steam lobbies, hide as Noisemakers, and hunt as blindfolded Noisechasers who track sound through colored splashes.

The game includes proximity voice chat, MARCO/POLO calls, breath-holding, close-range tags, diving tags, and infection-style rounds where caught players join the hunt. Playable environments include the Marco Rec Center and MARCO Market, with interactive props, throwable objects, and voice-changing distractions.

The game is still being refined. Players may encounter bugs, collision issues, and uneven balance while multiplayer behavior, movement, tagging, and presentation receive further work.”

Adakah harga permainan ini berbeza semasa dan selepas Akses Awal?

“MARCO will have a lower price during Early Access. I currently plan to increase the price when the game reaches its full release, reflecting the improvements and content added during development.”

Bagaimana anda merancang untuk melibatkan Komuniti dalam proses pembangunan anda?

“I plan to use Steam Discussions and playtest feedback to gather bug reports, balance suggestions, and ideas for props and map interactions.

I’m especially interested in hearing where players get stuck, when a tag feels unfair, which sounds are difficult to judge, and what creates the funniest moments with friends. I plan to share development updates and patch notes so players can see what has changed and how their feedback is influencing the game.”
