早期アクセスにした理由

“Sumo is a passion project made by a pair of former big-studio developers with a desire to make something of their own. We set out to make something we would be interested in, which for us usually means games of a smaller scale you enjoy with your friends. Early Access gives us the opportunity to get real player feedback and help scope out what further changes are needed and which direction to focus on for new content. Do you think the game needs more characters? More Arenas? Alternate game modes? Polish specific aspects of the current game? Try it out and let us know!”

このゲームは大体どのくらいの期間早期アクセスですか？

“6-12 Months. We are not looking to be a long-term Early Access title.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“The full version will differ based on player feedback! We feel our Early Access build presents a complete (though small in scope) game, and we want to expand what we have. Our players will help shape what type of content we deliver based on feedback, whether that be in the form of new characters, new levels, new game modes, or focusing on polishing the existing offerings.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“The game is currently feature and content complete with 8 characters and 4 arenas to play in, each with unique mechanics. The Skirmish game mode (free for all against all players) is the only mode available and can be played with any number of AI-controlled Bot opponents. The number of characters, levels, and game modes is planned to grow over time.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“At this time, our plans are not to change the price between Early Access and launch (temporary discounts aside).”

どうやって開発プロセスにコミュニティを参加させる予定ですか？

“As we did in our former roles as public designers on a live big-studio game, we plan to listen and respond to community feedback from the Steam forums to help shape the direction of content creation for future updates.
