Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« My main goal is to create a well simulated, living open world and NPCs that react to player actions, with hackable computers and objects, as well as 3d open world city, that will bring additional layers of depth of presented world.
The Early Access current version does not contain free-roam 3D world, and the simulation is limited. It's going to be changed in next versions.
While the simulated virtual world is implemented in some parts, it lacks the expected depth, it lacks dynamics and consequences for player and surrounding NPCs.
As I gradually ship the improvements, your feedback will play important role to tailor the game to be both fun and challenging.

The goal is that NPCs will address player actions based on their personality and statistics, which may change over time based on the events they face.
That means, that different NPCs might react differently against the same player action.
Current Early Access has foundations to that system, but more content is required to make it feel natural and immersive.

Lastly, while improving the gameplay and implementing new tools, it is better to implement a story at the end of that process.
That means, the Early Access version is a generated, sandbox mode of the game, where Story mode is a target for the Full Release. »

Pendant combien de temps environ ce jeu sera-t-il en accès anticipé ?

« Current estimation is that it will exit Early Access in 2027. »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« My current plan is that full version will additionally consist of 3d open city, with additional tools in gameplay outside of "virtual environment".
I have plans for more tools, programs, and missions, as well as a full story mode with player choices that affect the outcome.
I plan to add Steam Achievements, multi-language support, and Steam Deck compatibility while working towards full release.
I'm also considering mod support for future updates.
As of now, I have no plans for multiplayer support.

Remember, that the final full version may differ from current plans and priorities are subject to change based on your feedback during Early Access phase. »

Quel est l'état actuel de la version en accès anticipé ?

« The core gameplay, interface, and a limited pool of mission templates are in place.
However, the range of tools and their complexity are currently limited.
Key features like terminal commands, network connections, and hardware resource management (RAM, CPU) are implemented.
The stock market is implemented.
But some features like a full-featured banking system or virtual cryptocurrency are still in progress.
The dynamic economy is not completed yet.

Some updates during Early Access may require new game start due to save incompatibility. »

Le prix du jeu sera-t-il différent pendant et après l'accès anticipé ?

« Yes, I plan to gradually raise the price as new content and features are implemented. »

Comment comptez-vous impliquer la communauté dans le processus de développement ?

« There is a Discord channel to give feedback, ideas and raise issues, and the Steam discussions panel can be used for it as well.
I read all input from the players. I have my vision for the game, but I consider your ideas and how it can fit into the game.
As for the lone developer, player input is invaluable to the game's development, and I'm excited to see how I can incorporate your suggestions to shape the game's unique experience.
Based on the feedback, I will further improve the mechanics of the game to balance the complexity and fun. »
