What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

Please read carefully !

Boot : Game Dev Sim is in active development, a lot of features are currently missing or unfinished.

The early access is a good way to have feedback, suggestions and constructive criticism from the players in order to finish and improve the game.

It should be noted that the game in its current state does not currently offer an ideal gaming experience.

If you want to enjoy the game, it is strongly recommended to wait until the end of the development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Development could take around 12-18 months, maybe longer. The goal is to make Boot Game Dev Sim the best possible experience, that's why the final release date is flexible.”

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

“Here is a non-exhaustive list of things planned:

Developer Hiring system
Studio Creation Tool
Console Creation Tool
Game story
Talent Tree
More Mini Games
More variety in gameplay to avoid redundancy
More outfits and haircuts
Selection of Skin Color, Eyes, Hair and Clothes

but also improvements and bug fixes”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Boot : Game Dev Sim is in active development, a lot of features are currently missing or unfinished. You may experience bugs.

You can currently create your character, create games and resell them.”

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

“Yes, at the final release the price will be slightly increased.”

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

“The community can help improve the game by reporting bugs but also by leaving constructive criticism and interesting suggestions on the Steam forum.

The translation system has been designed to allow translation via text file, so the community can take care of translating of an unavailable language themselves.”
