为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“Beastieball is already an expansive game with a lot to experience, but we want to continue improving and expanding the game with player feedback. We're continuously adding more high quality frame-by-frame animation for existing Beasties, which is time consuming, but can be worked on while we collect feedback on the game experience and story.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“We expect Beastieball to be in Early Access at least until the end of 2025. Beyond that, our plans are still flexible and we don't have a fixed end date planned.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“Our aim is to continue adding new Beasties, bosses, story events and characters to the game such that the full release is an even greater experience. We'll also be continuously working on new features and quality of life improvement throughout Early Access using community feedback as guidance. We also plan to add additional language support for the full release.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“In the Early Access version of Beastieball, it's already possible to beat the game and reach the end credits. Typical playtimes range from 15 to 25 hours depending on how thoroughly you explore, and there's a wealth of post-game content to explore and enjoy as well; many players have already poured 100+ hours into the game. There are 100+ Beasties to recruit, sidequests and optional story content, multiple game modes, and online networked PvP.

We are still adding and polishing Beastie animation, so you may find creatures in varying states of completion. Some areas of the game are still being expanded on and may be lacking in visual presentation. You may also find some characters whose friendship can't progress past a certain point yet.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“Depending on how long Beastieball is in Early Access and how much the game expands, we may raise the price at some point in the future.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“We'll be actively monitoring community activity and feedback to make sure Beastieball is the best game it can be, as we've already done in Playtests pre-release.

There is an in-game feedback form which allows any user to submit bug reports, issues or requests which we will be taking into account. We'll also be monitoring our Discord server (linked in the game client) and Steam forums for issues or feedback. We also collect analytics on game balance and Beastie popularity, which will help us find where we need to make adjustments or how to prioritize Beastie animation.

We'll also be actively adjusting game balance with the intention to make the game fun and fair for a diverse range of playstyles and Beasties even at the highest skill levels in the game.”
