Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'As an early adopter of virtual reality headsets I've had the pleasure to watch the variety of games available on the platform drastically increase over the last few years. During this time I've actively looked for a city and resource management game and never quite found the experience I was looking for. A few months ago I decided I would attempt to make my own game that filled the role I was after. I've finally reached a point in development where I consider Coloniam ready for Early Access. I made the decision to release Coloniam on Steam for others to enjoy and to shape the early stages of development from community feedback.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?
