What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The philosophy behind our development process is rooted in the collection of feedback from our users, and the rapid introduction of ideas that serve to make the gaming experience better. Early access allows us to deeply engage with consumers, while supporting the staffing required to get the job done right.

Given that we are empowering users with UGC tools, the early access program also allows us to identify potentially disruptive behaviors and unintended outcomes that could jeopardize the health of our community. Catching potential problems early and redeeming gamers that may choose engage in damaging behaviors in an early access setting will give us a strong standing, and a strongly united and healthy community, come launch.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We're looking to release in November, 2018.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version will allow for more creation tools, game types, and a robust system of community-curated UGC submissions. This means more creative freedom for our community, but with a commitment to egalitarian principles governed by an engaged and active community made up of people who love to build games, love to play games, and those who love participating in both.

This is taken from the about us page:

Prior to launch, future updates will allow you to build, share, and play new Q.U.I.R.K. game types like:

King of the Hill
Sports Ball Arena
Capture The Flag
Tower Defense
And the many, many game types that will be suggested and created by our community.

While Q.U.I.R.K. master builders can currently share their levels directly with friends, we are on our way to building a full-featured UGC system using the Steam Workshop. For now, we'll be accepting new UGC submissions for death match arenas directly from the community.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“

Players can choose from an ever-growing, uGen curated list of UGC games to play solo, or with friends
Players can play all of our games cross platform on the PC or in VR using the HTC Vive
Players can build, share, and play their origninal death-match arenas with their friends
Players can submit levels to uGen for inclusion in future updates
Players can choose basic gender customization options
Players can level all the way up to level 14, unlocking new building assets at each level

”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We'll be exploring the appropriate pricing options as we solidify our content updates, customization options, and most importantly the opportunities and expectations defined by the feedback we gather from our community.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community involvement is the corner stone of our development process. The 8 members of our team worked together to create core studio values that are referenced daily as posters on our wall. While we cover topics like Product Development, Working Together, Our studio values on community take center stage, and are as follows:

We're developing with the community as a partner, not simply as a consumer
We're not afraid to listen, capture, and enact community feedback
We are all responsible for contributing to growing a healthy community.
We're welcoming, inclusive, and fun
We always explain the reasoning behind our choices and design intentions
We aren't afraid to publicly admit when we've made a mistake, and will work swiftly to fix it.
We are honorable in our dealings and honest in our communications with our community
