De ce Acces Timpuriu ?

„For years, players have had fun at their tabletop playing SQUIRMISH: The Card Game of Brawling Beasties, so we decided to bottle that fun in the form of a videogame we call SQUIRMISH: The Videogame of Brawling Beasties.

SQUIRMISH: The Videogame of Brawling Beasties is already playable, awfully fun, and completely plaid-pants-nuts... if you like the sorts of things we like, you will already like it. We're just having so much fun making it, we can't resist making it even better. We also want to get feedback from more players to see what they like and loathe about the game, so that input can help us make our game smile and shine like a brand new baby with gas.”

„Some additional features we plan be adding before the final release:

• Further evolution of PvP: Matchmaking to discover the best PvP formats and revise skill tracking.
  
• New cards beyond the standard 70! -- maybe as DLC card packs.
  
• Improved, harder-to-beat cyber-brain-smartses for single-player opponents.
  
• Further refinement of alternative play formats (possibly including a draft format).
  
• Squash any bugs that we have not found yet into slimy green paste.
  
• Grow the community to a large enough size to reliably support PVP.
  
• Additions and improvemeents to visual and audio effects. (Thankfully, we are not pursuing olefactory effects at this time.)
  
• Even more funny!

Care este starea actuală a versiunii aflate în Acces Timpuriu?

„The game is ready for rumbling, with solo matches and 2-player online PvP already fully-functional. All 70 cards featured in the original printed card game are included. You can currently play against 10 different ridiculous opponents with varying levels of brain. A variety of controls are supported to suit your particular preferences. An interactive tutorial gets you up-to-speed and ready-to-bleed quickly. The game plays nicely on SteamDeck.

The basics of the game are simple, but the wild variety of the card abilities keep the games fresh and interesting for many hundreds of hours... far longer than an unrefrigerated head of cabbage.”

Cum dorești să implici comunitatea în procesul tău de dezvoltare?

„We are really itching to hear what y'all think of our crazy game (at first we thought we had the hives). We want to hear what you think about what we've built and to get your input on where you would like to see us to take it, whether it be over the moon or for a long walk on a short pier. We have created a Discord Server for our users to share their experiences, thoughts, fan art, wit and thoughtful and moving (but also somewhat unsettling) poetry about their time spent as a stowaway aboard a clipper ship.”
