Varför Early Access?

“Steam Early Access is great way for me to get feedback on the gameplay elements parallel to the performance capture for this game instead of in series. I have always intended to release the game in this way so I designed the systems to be easy to modify and highly modular to allow for fast iteration based upon feedback.”

“'A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad' Shigeru Miyamoto

The game will spend between three and six months in early access.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“The full version of the game will Include a full story mode which takes place over a set period of time (two hours) and is designed to be replayed over and over, much like Dead rising, Majora's Mask or a Hitman level. This mode will be fully voiced and performance captured.

In addition to this I will pick fifty of the best challenge scenarios of the hundred plus I will release during early access to make it in to the final game. As well as a few bonus ones that won't receive any public testing.

After this I aspire to add online leader boards for the challenge mode and an asymmetric Co-op mode in which the additional player runs intelligence for the main player. I would also like to add native 3D support and push the graphics as much as I can!”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The current build has a selection of challenge scenarios and a free roam mode. This is deliberately minimalist so as to facilitate testing of a small but complex group of components first; the User interface, the robustness of enemy AI and the efficacy of Level streaming.

After this in approximately two week intervals new challenge scenarios and features will be added.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“If the game takes three months more of development then it's price will raise about 35% if it takes six months it will raise between 70-100% in price.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Although specific playtesting goals will be released with each new patch the general intention is to get players to give me feedback on bugs, but also what they find compelling and what they would like to see more of in a game of this nature.

In Early Access build 1.1 I am looking for feedback primary on the any bugs n the AI, menu and streaming system and after these are proved to be solid I will bring in a host of more complex features and expand the scope of the feedback.”
