Why Early Access?

“Development is extremely slow because it is produced only by the Shiodome sisters. Although we have created the basic version, we have made it an early access version because changes in quality and other factors may vary greatly when adding functions, as the case may be, according to customer needs. We are currently planning to include data for four lines in this game, and will move up from early access to the official version once all four lines are open. At least until the contents of the main line, Naruhama line, Ishikan line, and Airport line are completed, we plan to keep the early access status. When all are completed, the total length will be close to 100 km. The longest route is a little over 80 km from Naruhama Jingu to Shiodome Airport. We plan to make more detailed updates and improve the quality of the system as we receive feedback from our users.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Roughly, our goal is to complete the project by around 2024. However, the date may vary.”

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

“

The Early Access version allows you to.

Running on partially completed sections of the schedule. Only some types of trains, such as local, semi-expresses, and commuter semi-expresses.　　　　　　Tutorials (Japanese and English planned).

In the official version

The operating sections and routes that were restricted in the early access will be eliminated, and you will be able to run on more schedules. However, some routes may be available on DLC.
*The timetable has already been set up from morning to night. We plan to increase it gradually by adjusting route data and detailed timetables.
We also hope to be able to reproduce changes in scenery due to weather conditions and, if possible, rolling.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Approximately 70 km of the main line between Shiodome-Chuo and Nagamori has been completed. This section can be operated.
Train scenarios such as rapid, semi-express, commuter semi-express, and local trains can be operated. *Not all trains can run on the above section for all types.
Early morning, morning rush, and evening schedules are included. There are more than 10 diagrams in total for all the train schedules.
You can play with 6 types of commuter trains: SR1500,2000,3000,3500,4000,4500 series. *The format is designated according to the diamonds.

• Examples

Rapid train Nagamori first departure to Shiodome-Chuo: Daytime
Local train Nagamori bound for Shinden: Nagamori station early morning first train
Semi-express train from Tatehama depot to Nijisaka SA: morning inbound train

Many other operations can be played.”

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

“The price will be increased as the game content increases with additional routes, etc. However, the DLC may not change the price of the main unit. In any case, if you want to play the full version of the game, the price is expected to be higher than when the game was first released.”
