¿Por qué ofreces acceso anticipado?

«I have been developing and improving Pocket Rogues for almost six years alone. A huge number of ideas have been brought life in that time, and even more content is in the works. Thus far, game development has focused on depth rather than length; new gameplay techniques were added, and old ones were polished, while the plot additions have waited in the wings. The game will not be considered complete until the final points, such as plot, have become part of its production history.»

• Special generated properties for gears and most enemies;
  
• Many additional activities, such as generated daily tasks, achievements, collection of gear recipes, the purchase of pets and mercenaries, as well as special locations, such as the Treasury, which can sometimes be found when moving between floors.

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

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

«For quite a long period of time, the game has a Russian-speaking and English-speaking groups in social networks, as well as topics on Reddit and 4pda forums. Polls are regularly carried out in the groups, and all news with regard to updates are published there. The community is actively involved in the development by offering their ideas and concepts, as well as reporting on emerging issues for their timely elimination. A development cycle consisting of a major update every 2-3 months and about 3-4 fixes with edits of stability and balance between them has already been well established.»
