What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Circadian City is a life simulation game that is intended to be played hundreds of hours. It is not easy to test every condition and how the design executes itself in specific cases.

Player feedback is the most important input for our design decisions. We want to start our closed alpha with selected players first and then open the game to early access on Steam later on.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“A rough estimate would be one year of early access period. If there is interest, we will add more features and stay longer.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We are planning to add new content to the game. New NPC, new playable characters, new quests, events, inventory items and zones.

We might as well plan to add new features and we are willing to hear cool ideas from Early Access players.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version has all the features listed in "About this game" section.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Maybe. If we can add a lot of content as we intend to during Early Access, we might increase the base price of the game after the Early Access.”

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

“We plan on communication using the community hub and other social media such as Discord, Twitter and Reddit.

The game offers fertile ground for improvements. We want the community to come with new feature ideas and we want to implement them if possible.

The content of the game is extremely scalable. It is quite easy to add new zones, new buildings, new appartments/floors, new characters, inventory items, collectible media and so on... We want to add the favorite content of early access community to the game whenever they are inline with games' tone and rules.

There are thousands of possibilities in the game that are impossible to test one by one. We would ask the players to report the bugs and imbalanced situations.

Also difficulty of the game would require fine tuning and we will tweak the difficulty with feedback from the community.”

About This Game

Circadian City is a life simulation game in Early Access. The game holds a unique premise of playing both in the Realworld and the Dreamworld while they both affect each other.

THE DAYLIFE

You play daylife as a sim/management/adventure game where you try to make money and friends. But you can only become friends with people who share the same interests with you. Friendships you make during the day, unlock items in your Dreamworld.

Take care of your basic needs (hunger, energy, motivation, happiness)
Earn your life
Develop your interests
Make friends
Maintain a healthy lifestyle
Control your stress

THE DREAMWORLD

Dreamworld is full of crafting / building / farming. Every night, when you sleep, you find yourself in a weird place. The things you do in your daylife shape your dreams. Unlike the Realworld, you have somewhat of a playground here to take a breath. You can dream of being a farmer, rancher, miner or an ambitious gamer. Only in your dreams.

Build inside your mind
Craft dreamlike items
Discover mysterious characters
Find random encounters
Make decisions about your personality upgrades
Find your life goal

What about your love life? Well, it’s complicated.

THE EARLY ACCESS AND THE DEVELOPMENT

Join the Crowd!

We intend to keep Circadian City a long time in Early Access and we have crazy ideas for the game. But we know that you have even more crazy ideas and we want you to bring them in. We believe we created a fun playground and the architecture of the game is very scalable, therefore it allows tons of new content and features.

We are together in this adventure. Welcome aboard! Let's make this the game of your dreams. If you want to mod, you can tailor the game to your needs (no violence in any form) and we will support you. If you want us to add a new feature, let's talk about it and see if it fits.

If you want to wait for a game that's finished and polished that's understandable. But we will miss your ideas and feedback if you wait. The game needs your guidance now!

A LITTLE WARNING

Currently the game does not support mouse control. You can only play the game with a keyboard or a gamepad. This creates a little discomfort for keyboard+mouse players and we are working on this feature. If this is a must have feature for you, you can wait a bit more to purchase the game.

Thank you for your understanding.
