Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Fabular is a true labor of love for us. Launching in Early Access allows us to continue development with the support of our community. Every copy sold directly supports the team, helping us cover costs and dedicate more time to finishing the game faster than we could on our own.
Also, the game is a complex action-roguelike with a unique blend of physics-based combat and RPG elements. Because we are a tiny team of three, balancing these mechanics requires extensive testing and feedback from a wider audience.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'We want to be completely transparent with our players: we don't have a set release date at this moment.
Originally, we partnered with a publisher, but we have since parted ways (the publisher no longer exists) and are now fully independent. Currently, the three of us are working on Fabular in our free time, alongside our day jobs. This means development is moving forward at a steady but slower pace. We are absolutely committed to finishing the game—it is very close to our hearts—but please expect updates to arrive when they are ready, rather than on a strict schedule.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Since the start of Early Access, we have already implemented major content updates, including a new ship class, realms, bosses, enemies, maps, items, events and game mechanics. The full version will feature the complete story experience and more content.
Specifically, we plan to add:
- The Final Chapter: The 5th and final Realm to face the Void Lords themselves
- 3rd player ship class: The Salamander
- More unlockable characters: new characters and vendors for the throneroom
- Endgame Content: A proper conclusion to the storyline
- More Variety: Additional random events, items, and weapons to keep runs fresh.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The game is currently stable, content-rich, and fully playable. Current content is polished. We have completed 4 out of the 5 planned Realms, meaning the vast majority of the game is already there to be enjoyed. You can fly multiple ship classes, like the Paladin and Manticore, while strategically exploring randomly generated starmaps. Fight dozens of unique enemy types, loot powerful weapons, gadgets, and consumables, and progress through a deep upgrade tree. The core loop is finished; we are mostly focusing on the final stretch of content.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'We don’t have any definitive plans at the moment, but we will clearly communicate any changes before they are made.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'Community feedback has been the backbone of our development. We store all player feedback and try to incorporate them into the game. For example, both the complete overhaul of the Starmap navigation system and the introduction of a customizable difficulty system were direct results of player feedback.
If you find a bug, have an idea for a new item, or just want to tell us what you think, you can join our Discord server or Steam forums. Your input helps shape the final version of Fabular.'
