Perché l'accesso anticipato?

“Dear Player,
We have developed our game for more than two years: it is awesome. Now, we ask for your feedback to make it awesome with a cherry on top. Make that awesome with whipped cream and a cherry on top. And chocolate sprinkles.”

Per quanto tempo questo gioco rimarrà in accesso anticipato?

“We have a list of features we want your feedback about. And we assume that you have some amazing ideas, too. This will take some time, but we believe that we can get to a full release in under a year.”

Quali saranno le differenze fra la versione completa e quella in accesso anticipato?

“We have a list of features we would like to test before implementation into the full version. The full version could include, for example:

• New game modes,
  
• a universe editor,
  
• new GFX and SFX,
  
• polished online-functionality,
  
• more challenges & tutorials, and a
  
• human-like artificial intelligence.

Most of all, the release should be a polished experience of the overall game and include all those features which promise to be the most fun to you (and us).”

Qual è lo stato attuale della versione in accesso anticipato?

“The game is currently playable in single player as well as multiplayer modes and includes the following core features:
A single “free-for-all” playing mode against human or computer players.
For single player:

• 12 tutorials to get to know the game mechanics,
  
• 14 challenges to hone one's skills and unlock initially locked upgrades, and
  
• battles against up to four AI enemies.

For multiplayer:

• local multiplayer (shared screen, hot-seat) against up to four friends and AI players,
  
• online multiplayer against up to four friends and AI players
  
• matchmaking, extensive player statistics, and leaderboards.

Additionally, the game currently has

• 45 achievements,
  
• two sound settings, English and “German English”,
  
• nearly one hour of soundtrack,
  
• around 200 different planets, moons, and suns,
  
• several planet-, heart-, and balance-breaking events including epidemics, asteroid showers, or crashed alien ships,
  
• civilization bonuses, different rocket types, and nearly 30 crazy upgrades.

So far, we played thousands of games without crashes, the current game is stable. Which does not mean that there will be no bugs during further development. There will be.”

Il prezzo del gioco varierà durante e dopo l'accesso anticipato?

“To reward your trust and effort as an early adopter, the Early Access price is lower than the price for the full game.”

Come pensi di coinvolgere la Comunità durante il processo di sviluppo?

“You will be able to reach us via the SpaceWorms homepage (forum and e-mail), via Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.
Apart from your spontaneous feedback, we would like your opinion during our feature implementation phases: We publish a new feature (e.g., nude worms), ask for your feedback via the forum or polls, which decides if the feature is wanted, needs to be modified, or removed.
Getting your feedback is our main motivation to try Early Access.”
