Почему ранний доступ?

«Game development is always better when the feedback is directly related to the players. We have reached a point in development where the game is complete enough to be playable. We want Boat Builder:Andy's Story to be a great game about building and sailing boats and yachts. To do this, we put the game in early access so that a community can appear that will help us implement new ideas in the game.»

«Now you can build 1 boat (3 meters), 2 boats (5 meters and 7 meters) and 2 yachts (9 meters and 11 meters). You can buy materials from which you will build boats. The construction process is now simplified, you only need to have the materials needed for construction. In the process of passing the story, you have to complete tasks in order to open new boats.
