“This game has been in fulltime development for over 4 years now. We feel like it's a very unique game that many people have waited for. The game is "Early Access" as in that not all features are in the game yet - it isbuggy though! We spend a lot of time making sure that, stability and being bug free is most important at any time during development. If a bug is reported, it will be fixed before any new feature is added. We want and need feedback from the players that will actually play and love the game.“If the community thinks the game is ready for final release, then it probably is. It's really the community that knows best when a game is done. The time frame absolutely depends on what features the community wants us to add.”“The current game is purely singleplayer, and one of the most requested features will no doubt be multiplayer. Unless the community surprises us with a different opinion, the full version will likely have many multiplayer features included. Of course you will still be able to play this in singleplayer, just like now.Also, the game is currently a sandbox game with no survival aspect. We expect that to be another major request from our community, and we look forward to adding that. It will stay optional though, so anyone who likes the current peaceful atmosphere of the game will be able to keep playing that way and focus on the creative aspect of the game.We plan to work on this game for a long time, so even after the game is out of early access, there will still be many new features added to the game.”“This game has been in development for a long time. Many games you see on Steam Early Access are put online after 1-3 months of development. We spent over 4 years on this game at this time.We focused on polishing the core features of the game a lot. So while the scope of the game is not yet what it will be later, we wanted to make sure that it does what it does really well, and later add more features. A lot of time was spent on optimizing performance, and we are very proud of what we have achieved regarding that, especially if you keep in mind that this game features fully dynamic lighting, dynamic weather and you can place an infinite amount of lightsources with almost no performance impact, due to our custom voxel lighting.”“The price of the game will gradually increase during the early access period. Most important for us is currently to build a solid community around the game, we know we can only succeed if we have a community that wants us to succeed.”“The community is the most important thing for us at the moment. We involve the community as much as possible. We are very active in the steam forums and at any other place where there's any community regarding this game. Most importantly, there is an official cyubeVR Discord server with over 950 members where we constantly discuss ideas and development of the game and also manage beta testing of new features before they are released for everyone else.We are creating this game for you, so we need your feedback and ideas. Please tell us what you like, what you don't like and what you want to see in the game in the future.We also try to write weekly (or not so weekly ;) ) reports on Steam about progress in the game and release updates regularly.”
