¿Por qué Acceso anticipado?

“Decks was born out of a hobby project, initially published as a YouTube video on how to create strategy games in Unity. Since then, the game was has a closed series of tests and steady updates. I see the game as an ongoing project, a platform that can grow reflecting the community suggestions.”

¿Cuánto tiempo va a estar este juego en Acceso anticipado aproximadamente?

“The core game is scheduled to launch in 2024. Since this is a strategy game with card components, it will continue to evolve beyond the initial release date, with regular additions to maps, cards and gameplay modes.”

¿Qué tan diferente será la versión completa de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“The planned launch features include:

• A library of diverse cards, allowing players to construct unique decks.
  
• Challenging and replayable solo, group and raid content.
  
• A PvP ladder with meaningful progression.

”

¿Cuál es el estado actual de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“The core gameplay loop is functional. The game currently includes a tutorial, 2 expedition maps (1 or 2 players) and a dragon raid (4 players). It also features a PvP mode, currently using one map. There are 22 unique cards implemented.

Given the early stages of development, there are bugs that I am constantly working on fixing. Some of these can be critical and I am grateful for the testers submitting logs and reports, helping me remove 120+ bugs in the past 2 weeks. The balancing is a work in progress, with some units clearly stronger than others.

Overall, the current state is a functional base prototype, which will be improved on - both in terms of polish and new content.”

¿El precio del juego será diferente durante y después del Acceso anticipado?

“Decks will be a Buy-to-Play game with a comfortable in-game progression. The game is expected to have micro-transactions post-launch and in the later stages of Early Access. The initial price of the base game allows us to focus on getting the gameplay and balance right, leaving the micro-transaction store an optional area. As we ship new content, the prices are not expected to increase; instead, players will have more options in the micro-transaction store.”

¿Cómo tienes planeado involucrar a la comunidad en tu proceso de desarrollo?

“Community is the key pillar of Decks. The current state of the game is a reflection of a closed alpha test - directly taking onboard player feedback. Looking ahead, I hope to involve the community with regular development updates, space for feedback, and community events. You can provide feedback via our e-mail (support@decksgame.com) or in our Discord (accessed through the in-game menu).”
