Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold is a standalone game 'experience' that introduces players to the DomSim World.

With "Dominatrix Simulator" we are trying to do something new and different with having players respond in real life to virtual commands. We are launching this 'experience' as Early Access on Steam so that we can engage with fans and find out which aspects they do and don't like. We see our process as collaborative and iterative; the game will evolve as a direct result of player input and only time will tell how that will shape the game.

Since it is our first title, and we are a small team of two devs working part-time, we are putting all of our energy into making this introductory experience a polished, high quality game play experience that excites fans.»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold will stay in Early Access until we are able to implement all of the features and content needed to make it a complete gameplay 'experience.'

We anticpate this may take more than two years from first launching as Early Access on Steam. This time may take longer or shorter depending on crowd funding support provided through Patreon, which will fund the commissioned pieces we cannot do ourselves: art, music, and some animation.

We will release updated builds as we make improvements.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«For the full version of Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold, we want to include:

Interactions with eight Mistress characters
Pose recognition, including single or dual poses
In game menu
Improved UI
Head/eye tracking
Enhanced lip sync
Higher res environmental assets
Improved animations for 3D Goddess and model performance
Gender fluid player options»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«This game is fully playable with a full tutorial, infinite gameplay loop, four Mistress NPCs, and complete environments. There is still a lot of placeholder content for future Mistresses beyond the original four, and additional content planned for the current four characters.

There are no bugs stopping play. There are some limitations to playing in small physical spaces.
It can be played with keyboard and mouse, as well as VR.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«The price of Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold will remain the same throughout Early Access. We may increase the price at Full Release if we believe there is sufficient content to justify the cost.

Fans have the option of supporting our content development through Patreon and will receive exclusive access to new content before we release it publicly, along with Patron only bonuses.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«We love to hear feedback about what works, what doesn't, and what we could do differently. We try to incorporate what makes sense, especially during playtesting. Our broader community of fans will have a chance to vote on future content or features. We use Discord and Patreon as our primary interfaces with players.»
