De ce Acces Timpuriu ?

„Crafting an experience from madness and darkness takes its toll on the crafter.

If the dose truly makes the poison then I am thoroughly poisoned.

Although a large majority of the experience is already in place and one can experience the madness from beginning to end there are a few features I wish to implement before I can call this project "complete."

This is my first commercial game and Early Access served the purpose of allowing me to learn as I craft and craft as I learn. It has been a test of my sanity developing this project. So many roadblocks came in so many forms. From having to learn from scratch with no experience coding to data corruption over a year into development and having to start completely over. It was almost as though this project was trying to uncreate itself as I was creating it.”

Aproximativ cât timp se va afla acest joc în Acces Timpuriu?

„This is a difficult question to answer. As stated before: madness takes its toll. And madness it certainly has been in the creation of this project. This game was alpha-worthy months ago but I kept adding and adding things to it and it never felt quite finished enough.

Update 2022-11-03:
This game is as good as complete but there are still a handful of things I wish to add before I finally call it finished. Until then the "Early Access" status is but a formality.”

Ce diferențe vor fi între versiunea completă, finală și cea aflată în Acces Timpuriu?

„This is also a difficult question to answer. As stated before a majority of the game is in place.

I plan to change a few things and add some others. This is a list of potential changes and additions that are in the works. Depending on many factors these changes may or may not be implemented - my sanity being one of them. If the madness does not take me then you can expect to see most if not all these implemented:
-Better particle effects
-More scares
-Difficulties -- for those of you who can't take the madness or those of you who wish an even greater challenge of your sanity

Update 2022-11-03:
Features added. It is doubtful that the final game will function or look any different. All that may be done now is adding lost content that I did not get a chance to reimplement and adding a few things I did not have time to add.”

Care este starea actuală a versiunii aflate în Acces Timpuriu?

„This project is nearing its completion. Nearly all the pieces are in place: puzzles, creatures, levels etc. There are some very minor issues that still need to be fixed but nothing game breaking.

If your wits are sharp and you can brave the darkness it is very possible to play from beginning to end - as my poor, unsuspecting play-testers discovered.

Update 2022-11-03:
As stated before, this project is as good as done but there are a handful of things I may want to add - leaving "Early Access" a formality and technicality.”

Va avea jocul aflat în Acces Timpuriu un preț diferit față de versiunea finală?

„Depending on the amount of extra content that is added to the game it may go up in price.

One thing is for certain though, those who purchase the game while in Early Access are guaranteed to pay less.

With how much I have kept adding and adding to this game it is very possible that the price may indeed increase if major updates are released.

I believe in transparency so if such big releases do end up coming to fruition updates will be communicated on the store page long before such release and subsequent price increase.

Update 2022-11-03:
I plan on increasing the price to $9.99 from $7.99. Years and years on and off of tireless work. This game has cost me far more than it has made but I did not want to change the price drastically.”

Cum dorești să implici comunitatea în procesul tău de dezvoltare?

„I will be watching the Steam forum for any bug reports and interesting ideas or suggested tweaks. Constructive feedback is welcome. I simply hope to create a memorable experience that will drive you mad! ...in a good way.

One thing to keep in mind though. This is a dark game... in both gameplay and story. I have added a way to adjust the brightness in-game as per many a request during Greenlight. For those of you who are too cowardly to face the darkness you may now adjust the brightness to higher levels - or lower levels if you live dangerously. No other boons will be granted in this regard.

Good luck, and may you keep the madness at bay as I have so far done.”
