Porquê Acesso Antecipado?

"To be transparent and to the point: right now, I am a one man team and there is A LOT of work that goes on behind the scenes to put together a polished game. I don't want to drag this out for too long by getting into the details... but I can only go so fast, and do so much, as a solo developer. Currently, I have completed 4 of the 11 chapters I have written out and if I hope to finish Transcend within the next year, I will need some help. This is why I am here; like any other solo game developer, I am just looking to grow and put together a team that can help me get work done quicker, and at a higher quality.

So what's the difference between you and any other developer?

I can't speak for any other solo-developer, but I can tell you a bit about myself: I started working on Transcend over two years ago with little to no game-development or artistic knowledge; so as you may imagine, this project has largely been a "learn-as-you-go" experience for me--

When I came up with the idea for Transcend, there were some key features I wanted: Firstly, I wanted a game that was going to be different; I wanted every step of the way to feel new, refreshing and most importantly, unpredictable. Secondly, I wanted the game to be a pleasant visual experience, filled with lots of details, and a whole array of contrasting, original colors. And thirdly, I wanted Transcend to have a simple, yet raw and immersive game-play-- easy to pick up, but complex enough to keep an avid gamer challenged.

I know in some of your eyes, I did not succeed with all (or any) of this... but I hope that some of you will enjoy a game that is refreshingly different, challenging, visually appealing, and will always keep you wondering what's next.

So please support by not only purchasing this copy, but by giving the game a sincere try. After all the work and love I've put into making this game, I'd really like to know what you genuinely think.

Aproximadamente durante quanto tempo vai este produto estar em Acesso Antecipado?

"I have 4 out of 11 chapters finished. It took me 2 years to finish 4 chapters alone (while learning as I go and laying the framework). If the work is split between one or two experienced team members, we can have the rest finished by this time next year. With that said, I estimate the game will remain in early access for at least 6 months."

Qual vai ser a diferença entre a versão final e a versão de Acesso Antecipado?

"Transcend in a few words: is about a warrior (you), who is on a journey to prove himself against the greatest warriors to ever exist. To do this, he will transcend time, worlds, and dimensions to challenge and learn from these powerful warriors. To put it simply, the player will be hopping from world to world, each with its own story-line and set of characters.

Future additions: Currently, the layout for the Spartan world is finished and I am working on implementing the story. But this is only the first of many unique worlds. I have 6 total worlds/timelines planned out and sketched. The Spartan, Viking, Samurai, Ninja, Aboriginal, and a world of only beasts and animals. How many of these will actually be completed and finished on release, will depend on your help."

Qual é o estado atual da versão de Acesso Antecipado?

"Currently in Early Access: players will have access to the first 4 Chapters of Transcend. Which include the "Prologue" up to and past the combat tutorial. This is a demo to let players know about the story, game-play, and direction of the game."

O jogo vai ter preços diferentes durante e depois do Acesso Antecipado?

"I still haven't decided this. But I am considering several options:

One- is everyone who purchased the Early Access version, will receive a FREE copy of the final release.

Another idea is- to somehow let the players choose the amount they'd like to purchase the game for. This idea makes the most sense to me, as you would pay whatever you think the game is worth.

Another is to gather some sort of consensus on what the price should be, and decide then.

There are many ways to go about this and I am not confident in making a decision at the present time."

Como estão a planear incluir a comunidade durante o processo de desenvolvimento?

"Transcend has many different worlds/timelines planned and there are many different options the community can help me choose to implement.

For example: a Viking world where the player will walk the halls of Valhalla and challenge all the ancient Nordic gods in combat. Or an Asian/Oriental world, where you train and learn from the wise and honorable Samurais. There is also a Ninja world, where you learn the art of using the shadows and surroundings to your advantage. An Aboriginal/Survival world, where you unlock the powers of your "Spirit Beast". I have many great worlds and ideas planned and there are many ways we could take this game together. I am open to hearing ideas and perhaps even implementing an entirely new world if there is enough support and it makes sense."
