De ce acces timpuriu?

„I'm a solo developer working on an ambitious kingdom‑builder that merges city‑building, resource management, RTS battles and story‑driven campaigns. I want players to be able to construct walls brick‑by‑brick, build geared machinery, modify terrain elevation and create their own politics and religions.
Early Access allows me to involve the community early so I can balance these systems, tune the AI and improve the interface based on real feedback. Playtesters are already helping me find bugs and refine mechanics and I want to continue that open dialogue so the final game reflects what players enjoy most.”

Aproximativ cât timp se va afla acest joc în acces timpuriu?

„When I think about the timeline, I prefer to keep things flexible.
I'm not interested in rushing a complex project just to meet a date. Instead, I intend to keep the game in Early Access for as long as it takes to make it stable and enjoyable. If those features need more time, I'll happily extend the process, and I'll use the community's feedback to guide when it feels ready to graduate to a full release.”

Cum se va diferenția versiunea completă de cea disponibilă în acces timpuriu?

„In the Early Access build I'm giving players a vertical slice of the game to try out the core mechanics. The finished version will expand on every front:

Game modes: Early Access offers a random mission mode and a basic creative mode for experimenting with building and combat. For 1.0 I plan to add full campaigns with branching stories and more robust creative tools so you can tweak world parameters, generate unique maps and jump between "god‑mode" building and play

Content: I'm starting with one civilization and a limited set of missions and props. The full release will add more civilizations, new buildings, props, behaviours and scripted missions, along with additional biomes and architectural styles.
I want players to have a wide palette of materials and decorative pieces to craft unique towns and castles.

Systems and mechanics: Early Access includes the foundations of the economy, construction and combat systems, but some mechanics like law, tax and religion are still missing. By 1.0 I aim to layer in these deeper systems, expand unit types and AI behaviours and flesh out technology and production chains.

The overarching goal for the final version is to offer complete gameplay loops from founding a settlement to defending it and steering its culture with enough content and replayability to keep players engaged for plenty of hours.”

Care este starea actuală a versiunii aflate în acces timpuriu?

„You can play missions with the first civilization. The mission mode lets you pick a scenario and seed to unlock more challenges. The building tools have been overhauled: you can drag out roads and walls, use a mini grid for fine placement and reshape terrain with a landscaping tool. Resource management is functional. You handle production chains, craft goods, set up road and trade.
Citizens and props have auras that influence their surrounding.
There's a dashboard that displays lists and charts about your kingdom.
Combat features is working with infantry and archers.

Jocul va avea prețuri diferite pe durata accesului timpuriu și după părăsirea acestuia?

„When 1.0 launches the price might be adjusted to reflect the new campaign and additional systems. Anyone who buys during Early Access will get all updates and the final game at no extra cost.”

Cum intenționezi să implici comunitatea în procesul tău de dezvoltare?

„Community feedback drives my roadmap. Backers have been beta testing since January 2024 and can submit bug reports through an in‑game tool. I post detailed dev logs on the Steam page listing what's changed and what I’m working on.
I invite players to join the official Discord where they can discuss the game, vote in polls and chat directly with me.
I also share progress videos on YouTube and quick previews on X/Twitter, Instagram and TikTok.
Early feedback has already led to major UI and gameplay improvements.
I plan to keep iterating on features like missions, civ balance and localisation based on player input.”
