Por que acesso antecipado?

"PROJECT AZRIEL offers a pioneering approach to improve cognitive skills: integrate the training with engaging FPS/TPS game play. We are a small team of developers and researchers that have put a lot of time into making sure that the brain training in PROJECT AZRIEL is rigorous and produces results while ensuring that the gameplay is exciting and fun. It’s a tough balance to get right but we are confident that with the immense feedback of the Steam Community we will be able to fine-tune that balance and make it extremely enjoyable to play a FPS/TPS brain training game."

Por quanto tempo aproximadamente este jogo estará em acesso antecipado?

"While release dates for any software can be hard to pin down, we think it is extremely important to manage the expectations of those that put their trust in us. We have laid out a detailed road map with attainable targets defined. We have most of the currently defined functionality implemented and will be doing iterative content-driven releases with bug fixes during the next few months that are in line within our completion targets. As we get feedback from the Steam Community on game enhancements, we may need to shift priorities a bit to implement those enhancements. Our promise to Early Access partners is that we will be working full-time on development of this project and we will update our release targets as necessary as well as regularly post progress updates to make sure everyone is aware of our current state of development. All that being said, we hope to have the full game completed roughly by the end of April, 2018."

Como a versão completa será diferente da versão de acesso antecipado?

"The full version will have additional content and functionality, some of which will be defined by the Early Access players of PROJECT AZRIEL. Additional content that is planned is new types of adversaries and dozens of new missions in new scenes which have already been designed but may be adapted based on the feedback we receive. The final stage of our development will include in-game cinematic sequences and fine-tuning the atmosphere of the game. Our design approach has been to ensure brain training and gameplay functionality first and foremost and then to deepen the gameplay experience through cinematics and more detailed design elements. The feedback we receive will be critical to helping us complete this game and we will be asking specific questions of our Early Access partners to enable us to make this the most enjoyable game possible."

Qual é o estado atual da versão de acesso antecipado?

"We have several hours of gameplay content developed with the ability to re-do missions, scenes, or the entire campaign and keep your earned experience points and difficultly levels. This ensures a player can play the game indefinitely and continue rigorous brain training while doing so. All of the planned cognitive training activities have been developed and implemented into the gameplay. We are in the final stages of the Early Access release working on optimization with an internal quality assurance pass and bug fixes already in process."

O preço do jogo será alterado após o fim do acesso antecipado?

"The price will increase after Early Access. There will be a lot of additional content and some new functionalities that may be defined in the Early Access development cycle. We want to reward those who are with us from the beginning and investing their time, creative ideas, and money in PROJECT AZRIEL by offering the game to them at a lower price."

Como vocês planejam envolver a comunidade durante o processo de desenvolvimento?

"We believe we have created an exciting, one-of-a-kind game that provides rigorous brain training. We know that to get that balance fine-tuned we will need regular, detailed, and constructive feedback. This means we will be looking for feedback on gameplay dynamics as well as new feature and content requests. We will be actively engaging and asking questions of our Early Access partners in the Steam forums, on social media, and through email and surveys."
