What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access? “Battle Splash is my solo project from 2012, with the aim is to create a multiplayer game that is Fast, Intense and Exciting without any need of violence so that everyone, regardless of ages, can enjoy. The game is nearly completed, with almost every features intended. However, there are still many things that needed to be considered before the final version - from Game Balancing, Graphic Update, Content Update to Optimization and Bug Fixes. Since I want the game to be played in many different ways, and to be Fun, Epic and Friendly as possible, community input is very important. Therefore, Early Access is a perfect opportunity for me to get feedback from the community and to further polish/improve the game with better gameplay and cool new features.” Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access? “I intended to finish the game in approximately a year or less, as the game is designed to be as balanced and performance friendly as possible. There is also about Modding Supports, Content and Design Direction for this game, which will take a lot of time to develop/consider.” How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version? “The final release should be more stable and more enjoyable than the Early Access version. Furthermore, new features/content such as Maps and Modes will be featured in the Final Release. Also, modding support will be further improved, so that everyone can make use of as much Battle Splash's features as possible.” What is the current state of the Early Access version? “The Early Access version already contains all features in Battle Splash, including all gameplay features, 4 playable maps, 3 different playing modes, etc... The only thing missing is Full Modding supports (as only characters modding support at the moment), which will be released when the game is near completed. In short: it is considered as Stable release, although there might be unforeseen bugs/glitches during gameplay. However, I will make sure that players won't have many issues with every update.” Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access? “The price for the game might change during its development stage. However, I do want to make sure that the game price will be reasonable.” How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process? “Battle Splash is big for me, so every feedback counts. I'm always happy to listen to any constructive feedback since it provides valuable idea that helps me further improving the game. Please understand that not all feedback will be implemented since there are a lot of constraints for me, but at the very least, I'll read them, and I'd be very appreciated.”
