Why Early Access?

“I'm a solo indie developer, and I have a lot of ideas for this game.
I've been working on it for 8 years already, and if I keep trying to implement everything on my own, it could take just as many more.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“If everything goes well and I build a team to bring all the ideas to life, I’m aiming for 1–2 years. Updates with new content and mechanics will be released every few months.”

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

“In the final version of the game, the following features are planned:
- New ship types will be added, new maps
- Island structures, fortifications, and the ability to capture and defend islands
- The ability to trade ships and buildings with other players
- A storyline will be introduced for the single-player campaign
- A player character and a notoriety system will be implemented”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Everything you see in the main description, videos, and screenshots — you can already play! Build ships, engage in battles or compete in regattas with other players.”

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

“To be honest, I don’t know. But I’ll announce all changes in advance.”

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

“There will be statistics and feedback from players.
