Why Early Access?

“Since it is being made by one developer and partial collaborators, it is expected that it will take some time to create routes, vehicles, scenarios, etc. and implement features.
I believe that we can improve the quality and efficiency of the project by finalizing the specifications and extending them based on your feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Over the next few years, the route will be gradually extended to Oji with functional enhancements.”

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

“I am planning to add rolling stocks and extend the route, etc.
The route will be gradually extended from Daidoji to Oji to eventually allow a total of 44.1 km of operation.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game features over 50 scenarios, spanning early morning, morning, afternoon, and nighttime.
Note: The section between Daidoji and Oji is currently incomplete.

Key features implemented since the start of early access:
-Conductor mode
-Passenger boarding and alighting
-Extension between Hamazono and Daidoji
-Morning rush hour scenario
-Preliminary VR implementation
-Weather changes”

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

“Price increases are planned as progress is made, including route extensions.”
