What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access? “We at Aerolab Studios are a dedicated three man team working hard to provide the best game we possibly can. With no funding and a seven month development cycle it has been a challenging but rewarding en devour. As a part of our early access community you will be the first to enjoy new key features and will have a direct impact on future expansions. We believe that this is a communal effort and want to involve early access players as much as possible. As a part of of our early access community you will be able to enjoy free Dead President tokens (our in game currency) on us as a token of our gratitude.” Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access? “We are aiming to be in early access for no more than six months. This will provide us with enough time to gather valuable data and community feedback to better the playing experience for all.” How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version? “Upon full release all aspects of the game will be running smoothly and any issues that may occur will be resolved. All downloadable content will be available to all players upon full release. New prison maps and characters will be added during and after early access along side new game modes and weapons. We hope to branch out and extend our reach to different console platforms.” What is the current state of the Early Access version? “At this stage, the game is fully functional with our base map completed. (Summer Heights correctional facility). The game runs smoothly graphically and otherwise. We believe the game is in a 'Finished state' and we look forward to the communities feedback.” Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access? “We do not plan to chance the price of our game when it is released from early access.” How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process? “Involving the community is a vital aspect of The Prison Experiment. We at Aerolabs are passionate gamer's at heart and understand how important the communities involvement is. We will have a dedicated community manager who will interact with fans via all popular social media platforms. We take the communities feedback very seriously at Aerolabs and strive to build a loyal and dedicated fan base.”
