How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The core gameplay is available and fully functional. Our beloved early adopters can enjoy it right now. We plan to establish a strong relationship with them and offer the guarantee that their voice will be heard in order to propose/influence upcoming maps and features.”“At this stage we're simply not sure, but we continue to work on it and adding features until it we're happy with the result.”“The final version will provide more maps to play on, and additional features such as an exoskeletal suite, new traits/skills for humans and aliens, new items, new objectives and forms of interactions (more researches, more things to hack...)”“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.”“We want to involve our players in the development process as soon as possible, in an iterative way. Updates will be frequent in order to offer additional contents that will have been discussed with the community. We are very accessible to our fans, we love to discuss with them and add the features they would like to get. Don't hesitate to join the Hive and share your ideas with us!”
