Miksi Early Access?

With a smaller development team and a lot of goals and ambitions for the project that revolves around user input, we are bringing the game into Early Access to give us the time and amount of user input and feedback needed to refine Surviving the Abyss into the best game that we can make as possible.
Feedback, as well as suggestions for future content from the community, is something we want to be able to incorporate into the game. Making Surviving the Abyss an experience shaped by the community is important to us.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Our current estimation is 6 to 12 months depending on how quickly we are able to reach our milestones and implement all of our planned features and content.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Throughout Early Access, we plan to release a number of updates that will add new content and features to the game. Smaller updates including balancing, more content (techs, story events...), and systems tweaks will also be released regularly.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

The Early Access build contains essentially the stable and fully playable core experience of the game as we envision it, with some content and external features missing.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

The price of the game might change during Early Access and/or after Early Access.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

Community feedback will play a role in choosing the roadmap and feature priorities. We want to build a game you will want to play, and we will listen to what you have to say!

You can (and should!) use the "Report a Bug" button to open an in-game feedback form, and report bugs and suggestions. This feedback system will send us a screenshot and your save along with any internal errors that may have occurred, so we can reproduce bugs easily and fix them within days. This feedback system is used extensively during closed alpha playtesting with major success.
