Wat de ontwikkelaars zeggen:

“Hello and thank you so much for deciding to check our game out!

While we initially had no intention of releasing the title on early access we have decided to due to the absolutely overwhelming amount of petitions to do so both in our e-mails and on Reddit.

It is thanks to you that we made it this far, thanks to you that we were voted into Green-light in under 13 days, and thanks to you we will finally realize our dream of producing a game that appeals to almost everyone who plays!

We are VERY hard at work on the game, with constant content patches and updates on a weekly basis, and feel that Early Access will only help speed things up. With the possibility of receiving your feedback in real-time , releasing to a broad spectrum of players from all over the world, and the prospect of having you enjoy it, we will be working our fingers to the bone!

As with every alpha project available, one doesn't want know what to expect. To make sure you actually enjoy the game before buying it feel free to use the available version of the game we have on our website www.piracysim.com for free! We aren't trying to cash in a quick buck here, so please, by all means play the game and make sure it's enjoyable to you prior to putting your hard earned money down!

The game is coming along in leaps and bounds, and we have a tentative final launch date of March or April, but that doesn't mean we will stop work on it. Once the game is at 1.0 we will spend two years updating it consistently, with new content being added every patch! Expect a VERY broad scope, an incredible amount of objects and loot, and a game life-span of around 40 hours by the time we are done.

We will be adding a factional warfare system, end-game systems and sub-systems that will let you run a pirate cove, trading, MANY quests, MANY unique abilities, traits, captains, and crew members, and fleshing out current systems so that they provide the best user experience possible.

During Early Access we will be launching with a 15 % discount as thanks for your continued support, and afterwards will always try to maintain a good pricing relationship. We feel around 15 $ is a sweet spot we would like to work with as a final price.

The steam community will be absolutely critical to the project's completion. We will rely on you to give feedback, support, advice, and even ideas to us. Remember, we have gotten this far with four hands, imagine how far thousands upon thousands more will do!

Once again we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. When we began we had no idea how much our choices would sway people, or how a single decision would deem us worthy of such overwhelming support. You are the heart of this project, and ultimately, whom we want to present it to.
