Wozu Early Access?

„D.F.R.: The Light is a challenging first-person survival horror game. You have twenty-minutes to accomplish a series of tasks in order, all while being hunted mercilessly by a ghostly light. I'm a lone developer, so it's important to me to get advice that'll help make this game the best game it can possibly be.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„This is an early beta of the game, however the core engine of the game is completed, including the unique behavioral A.I. and reward/punishment system. The early access beta is very, very playable, and is a complete game within its own right. All footage in the trailer (released at time of Early Access) is from actual gameplay. The world map is done, though there will be additions made to it over time to enhance re-playability and reliability. And eventually, if there's interest from the community, I'd like to make other levels, include multiple ghosts as an option, and make the difficulty changeable.“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„Yes, the price of the game will change according to the new content and features. Only the players who bought the Early Access version will get the game, and any future updates, at the current price.“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„I'm actively seeking feedback to make the game a more immersive experience. In the coming weeks, I hope to roll out a Facebook, YouTube and/or Twitter feed to gather insight. There's also the community hub, which I'm hoping will have spirited discussions.“
