为何要采用抢先体验这种模式？

“The initial release of Frustration Factory contains a full "month" of playable levels that are already highly addictive and introduce an enjoyable set of level mechanics. I intend to create about 3 "month"s of levels before releasing a full version. Rather than wait to complete all of these, I would prefer to get early feedback from early adopters so I can take their feedback into account while developing the future components and levels. I expect the game to be dynamically improved based on the received feedback.”

这款游戏的抢先体验状态大约持续多久？

“I am a one-person indie developer who is highly motivated to bring this project to a V1.0 release, but I do expect it will be mid-to-late 2025 by the time it is finished.”

计划中的完整版本和抢先体验版本到底有多少不同？

“I plan to develop many new features, levels and game mechanics for the full version. Development time will be spent also improving the user interface, tutorials, the graphical components and general playability. What gets the most attention the fastest will likely be based on received feedback from early adopters as to what is critical before releasing the final version. Besides just reporting bugs, I would love to hear what people think about the game in general. Knowing what levels people find the best or must frustrating will directly impact the future development of the game.”

抢先体验版本的现状如何？

“Frustration Factory contains a very playable set of 28 levels already and some beta-testers have actively played for hours unable to walk away, so I know it is already a very viable game. The early-access version already contains the ability to play under multiple profiles, an extra set of achievements to earn, and a set of tutorials that introduces each new game mechanic and level as the player progresses through the first 28 levels.”

在抢先体验期间和结束之后，游戏价格会有所不同吗？

“Final pricing has yet to be decided upon, but it will be higher than the early access releases. As more features and more levels are added the price will go up for all new purchases, but getting in early means you'll get them all as free updates.”

在开发过程中，你们是如何计划让玩家社区参与进来的？

“I would love comments and suggestions. My todo list is already very long but would love to hear other suggestions people have for the game. I really need to know what you like about it, what you don't like, and what do you think about after you walk away? What is grabbing your attention? What puzzles/difficulties have you thinking about solutions while out walking, cooking, etc? When do you quit, why? Late for School/Work? Boredom? Exhaustion? Need time to think? All of this feedback have a direct effect on the game development priorities. For example, getting feedback about everyone's favorite features and game mechanics will directly drive the types of future game mechanics and levels under development. Please leave comments directly in the steam reviews or find me on discord on the "frosted axe studios" web page.

I look forward to all your comments!”
