Miksi Early Access?

I'm a solo developer an atmospheric game that blends multiple interconnected systems and a carefully crafted world.

It’s important for us to ensure that we’re moving in the right direction - in terms of gameplay feel, balance between exploration, survival, and storytelling.
Early Access allows us to gather live feedback, see what truly resonates with players, and understand what needs to be improved or expanded.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

I plan to release the full version of the game around early 2027, though this timeline may change depending on the pace of development and community feedback.
If players suggest ideas or features that require more time to implement, we’re ready to adapt - our main goal is to deliver the best possible version of the game.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

I plan to gradually expand the accessible part of the island as development progresses.
In the Early Access version, players will be able to explore roughly one third of the island. Over time, new regions will become available — each introducing fresh quests, activities, crafting options, mechanics, and unique enemies.

I also intend to improve core systems such as survival, progression, and world interaction, and to enrich the storyline with new events and side stories.
After the first major updates, we will publish a public roadmap so players can follow the development process and upcoming features.
