Kenapa Akses Awal?

“To achieve the scope and final vision of our game, it will be necessary to deeply understand the type of player who enjoys and seeks more experiences that simulate the idea of being a librarian.

We believe we already have a fun and functional version of this experience and have many ideas on how to evolve it further. Early access is an option for us because it will allow us to focus our resources and help validate our current vision while providing valuable insights on where to go next.

But beyond that, it is currently the healthiest and most objective way to get to know and interact with our audience. Through a participatory process between developers and players, we can gather feedback about the game and accurately discover which ideas work, which don’t, and what our players’ greatest desires are for the future of our game.”

Berapa lama permainan ini dijangka akan berada dalam Akses Awal?

“Approximately one year and a half to two years, with constant updates during this time.”

Apakah perbezaan yang dirancang antara versi penuh dan versi Akses Awal?

“For the full version, we plan on including more features that enhance the librarian simulation fantasy.

One of our focuses will be on diversifying organizational possibilities and providing new ways to acquire books and customize the library's interactive environment, potentially resulting in increasingly customizable options that reflect the unique ways different groups express themselves as librarians.

In addition, we plan on improving how customers interact with the library, which would, in turn, generate more tasks that simulate a librarian's daily life and gradually test players on how they choose to organize and manage their day-to-day activities.

Finally, we plan to explore alternative game modes and introduce support for mods (if possible) and the active participation of players and partners in customizing the book content within their libraries. This will include possibilities involving a social environment where players can interact not only as librarians but also as visitors to other players' libraries, consuming books and engaging with each other in various ways. We can't promise those features, but they are surely interesting additions we will be working hard to test and check how they could be implemented to the final game.”

Bagaimanakah keadaan semasa versi Akses Awal?

“Currently, the game offers a single-player or co-op experience that explores a diverse, challenging daily simulation of a librarian's life. Among the basic features available to players since day 1 is the ability to organize books on shelves as they wish, acquire new books, attend to customers, manage the library, and expand and customize the environment.

The game is now much deeper than it was during its original launch, having since then received frequent updates that added features like furniture removal, book storage, avatar customization, NPC registration and damaged books, as well as new game modes and new languages.

LIBRITOPIA will still receive even more updates, features and languages until its final release.”

Adakah harga permainan ini berbeza semasa dan selepas Akses Awal?

“Yes, the game will have its price incrised for the full release.”

Bagaimana anda merancang untuk melibatkan Komuniti dalam proses pembangunan anda?

“The game already has a Discord community where players can stay updated on the development team's plans, provide direct feedback, report issues, and find groups of players to play with and share their experiences with us and other players.

Additionally, in-game mechanisms for content suggestions are still planned for the Early Access period, especially the ability to suggest the addition of public domain books that are of interest to our players.

Updates are also always shared on the game's Steam page through the "announcements" section.”
