왜 앞서 해보기를 하나요?

“We intend to make a niche product which caters to weirdos like us. We want to actually know our players and enter into an open dialog with them. The plan is to start small and grow, using the first episode as the foundation to build a larger, more complex experience. We have a skeleton in place, but many of the details in our design are subject to change based on what plays well. Early Access will allow us to collect feedback from a limited pool of users, and cultivate a community of people who are invested in this game and its universe. By the time this game leaves Early Access we want our players to take as much pride in their involvement with the final product as we do.”

이 게임의 앞서 해보기 기간은 얼마인가요?

“Best guess: two years. One spent finishing and releasing two more episodes, one spent fleshing out existing content and polishing. The rate of development will depend in part on the success of our initial offering, and/or ongoing crowd-funding endeavors. Whatever the case we'll be open about our rate of progress and the factors involved.”

정식 버전은 앞서 해보기 버전과 어떻게 달라지나요?

“The full version of the game will include several episodes, as well as all auxiliary content. Anything that "makes the cut" in the eyes of the developers and our Early Access community will be bundled up and sold in the finished package. Early Access customers will instead receive this content piecemeal and have an opportunity to engage the developers in shaping the eventual product and the Ectolibrium universe.”

지금 앞서 해보기 버전은 어떤 상태인가요?

“Episode One is playable. Two more episodes are already in their second pass of development, and will be released once quality parity is achieved with the first episode. All three episodes will be updated over the course of development, and there is the possibility of additional episodes, based on what our players respond to.”

앞서 해보기 동안과 앞서 해보기 이후의 게임 가격이 다르게 매겨지나요?

“Yes, the price of the game will increase with each episode added to the product, so customers who buy in early get the best deal.”

개발 과정에 어떻게 커뮤니티를 참여시킬 계획이신가요?

“Monthly feature votes, continuous feedback collection, and per-episode roundups covering lessons learned over the last episode, and affording the community an opportunity for "town hall" style discourse on our Discord server. We intend to build a community which allows for both formal and informal involvement. We'll structure the formal stuff -- but don't hesitate to shoot us an email if you have an idea!”
