Kenapa harus Akses Dini?

“The world of S.O.T.A is very large and multifaceted by design. And our ambitions are even greater. It will take a lot of time and money to introduce everything that was conceived into the game.
But two people who are now working on the project will take a very long time to create their plans in the game. We understand that we need to expand. Attract new guys to our small team. Find the same ambitious developers like us. Then the work on the game will go faster. We do not want to look for investors, because by attracting investments, we will lose creative freedom. We already put everything we had on the line. Now we need your help. It is for this reason that we are forced to release the game to Early Access.
Our investors are YOU - fans of our game, those who help us create this game, this wonderful fictional world ...”
