为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“We want to launch our 2D beekeeping simulator in Early Access on Steam because the game is still a work in progress, and we believe player feedback is essential to shaping it into the best game possible. Early Access will allow us to collaborate with our community, refine mechanics, add features, and ensure the final game meets players expectations.

We've chosen Early Access for a few reasons:

* Community Support: Your involvement is really important. By participating in Early Access, you can directly influence the development of Grandpa's Bee Haven, helping us to better the game. We guarantee that your suggestions and feedback will be taken into account.

* Continuous Improvement: We aim to create the most wholesome experience, and your feedback will help us achieve that. Whether it's bug fixing, adding new game maps, mechanics, animations - your input will guide our development.


Join us in Early Access to help Grandpa's Bee haven to be the most wholesome stress-relieving beekeeping idle game out there!””

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“We plan to keep the game in Early Access from few months to a year depending on the feedback and progression.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“We plan to have the full version featuring a more polished gameplay without major bugs. Also we plan to have more maps available for the players to play.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“It's in development stage, but can be already be played and gather resources and remove obstacles. Quite a lot from menu does not work yet and sometimes the game can have errors or get stuck.
Menu: Main functions work, but needs more descriptions and content.
Maps: Only 1 map available at this point.
Animations: Main character has most of the animations, but definitely has room for improvement. Also need to add animations to helper characters of the game.
Upgrades: At this point not working yet correctly. This is one of the top thing we are working to fix asap.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“Since the full release will be with way more features, mechanics and 3 more maps so it is expected to be also more expensive.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“We are excited to ask feedback from local gaming community, the beekeepers community and people who like 2D pixelart games.

For example we have already involved real beekeepers in our game development by asking them in real life and also through their social media channels how the game could be more real life accurate and what else to involve in our game. For example the idea to add sugar syrup for bees and also the solar beeswax melter ideas are taken from this feedback.

We plan to regularly release updates and fixes, and we are open to all constructive suggestions and criticisms from gamers and beekeepers.

All community members are invited to share their feedback, comments, and suggestions on the social media channels. At this moment main channels can be found in Facebook, Twitter and Bluesky.”
