Чому дочасний доступ?

«As a small, two-man team we feel that the community's concerns and suggestions are among some of the most valuable input a game developer can receive. Early Access allows us the opportunity to use this input in prioritizing bug-fixes and determine which new features to add first.»

Як довго гра буде у дочасному доступі?

«We predict Caverns: Lost Sky to remain in early access for an additional 2-3 years.»

Чим повна версія гри буде відрізнятися від версії для дочасного доступу?

«The basic mechanics and a large number of core features are already implemented in Caverns: Lost Sky. Some of these include combat and leveling up, digging massive tunnels and caves, and crafting unique item recipes. The remaining tasks to be implemented for the first level, the Tellurian Sector, are:

• Questing system
  
• Skill upgrade menu
  
• Town and neutral AI
  
• Dungeons

In total we have an additional 5-6 levels/sectors planned. Each with their own town, dungeons, and enemies. The Tellurian sector is our testing ground to refine the core game loop, and receive feedback on core features. Once the community and ourselves are satisfied, development will shift to the story line, item balancing, and remaining levels.»

Чи буде відрізнятися ціна гри протягом дочасного доступу та після його завершення?

«At the moment Caverns: Lost Sky is incomplete and in an alpha stage of development. However, with tons of new content planned, the price is likely to rise over its life cycle. Price changes will coincide with new levels being completed.»

Як ви плануєте залучати спільноту до розробки гри?

«As gamers ourselves, we recognize the vital importance of community feedback in the Early Access process. Engagement with our community on Reddit, Social Media, and Official forums allows us to hear what matters most to you. This helps us locate and fix bugs, prioritize features, and above all keep development in check.

Caverns: Lost Sky runs on our lightweight, custom Numinous Engine which provides us the power and freedom to quickly adapt game mechanics in response to community feedback compared to rigid, traditional game engines.»
