Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Apocalypse Factory is already a complete and fully playable experience, but I believe the best factory and automation games are built together with the community.
Early Access gives me the opportunity to gather real player feedback, fine-tune balance, improve usability, and add small quality-of-life features that make the game even more enjoyable and replayable.
The core gameplay, systems, and progression are already finished — Early Access is mainly about polish, optimization, and community-driven improvements, not missing content.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Around 6 to 12 months, depending on community feedback and the scope of improvements suggested by players.
The plan is to keep updates steady but focused — polishing the experience, improving automation flow, and adding small content expansions where it makes sense.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The full release will include:
Improved performance and visual polish
Additional late-game automation options
More small decorative and survival elements
Balancing refinements based on community input
No major reworks or redesigns are planned — the goal is to make the game feel as smooth and satisfying as possible while keeping its identity intact.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'All main gameplay systems are already implemented and stable:
You can build factories, automate production chains, manage resources, and survive in a post-apocalyptic world filled with zombies and chaos.
Early Access players will experience the full core loop from start to end — with room for improvement in balance, UX polish, and late-game optimization.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'Yes. The Early Access version will launch at a lower price to reward early supporters.
When the game reaches full release, the price will increase to reflect its finalized state and added content.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'I read every bit of feedback players share — whether it’s on the Steam forums or Discord.
During Early Access, I’ll focus on gathering feedback about balance, automation flow, usability, and performance, then prioritize the most common or helpful ideas.
Players’ suggestions will directly influence small feature additions, interface improvements, and quality-of-life changes.
Every major update will be shared with detailed patch notes so the community can see how their feedback shapes the game.
Apocalypse Factory already has its main systems in place, but with the community’s help, I aim to make it smoother, smarter, and more rewarding to play.'
