Varför Early Access?

“Dire needs a bit more development time until it’s ready for full release and we want to open up the last bit of development to solitaire fans so that we can all ensure that Dire is the best solitaire game possible. We need feedback on balance, polish, and anything else you think is important based on playing.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“Current estimate is early 2021.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“Most of the content and features are already near a level of completion and will be made available over the Early Access timeline (we may obscure / blur unfinished work). Mainly the differences between the Early Access version and full version release will be better balance, less typos. Don’t expect major changes from what is presented (we have already spent much development time on iteration already), do expect many polish improvements toward the game coming completely.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The first version will have 8 chapters of the Adventure story mode available, but final character art is not included yet, and chapter backgrounds are blurred for the first build. Each chapter has 3 layouts - this is a pacing decision to make the story and gameplay happen closer together than before. Zero pets are available (you can collect some eggs but we are blocking off the pets screen for the very first build). 20 achievements are available. If you have played our other solitaire games you know what this means and you may have an idea of what to expect to come after. There are things obviously temporary assets and things obviously missing but we've still tried to make it as presentable as we could in time for the first public Early Access build.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“The price will increase by 50% at full release.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“There is room for feedback on content and features. For the most part the major strokes are already done and in Early Access we are mostly only looking for feedback on balance, typos, and areas where you may feel there is not enough polish yet. The best place to provide feedback is in the game's Steam community forum here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/556530/discussions/”
