Why Early Access?

“We’re bringing this vision to life with your help! By launching in Early Access, we aim to refine gameplay mechanics, expand crafting possibilities, and ensure that every aspect of the world—from farming to monster taming—feels truly rewarding. Your feedback will shape the future of the game, helping us create the best artisan experience possible.

If you love the idea of crafting, farming, and raising dungeon monsters, join us on this journey! Be the first to experience new features, share your thoughts, and help us build something truly special.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We’re expecting to finish our Early Access in a year or less! We don't have the exact date to end our Early Access, but we won’t stop improving the game!”

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

“We expect the full version of Artisan Story to deliver a more polished and content-rich experience than Early Access, featuring expanded gameplay, refined mechanics, Steam Achievements, and the true ending to the story.

During Early Access, we plan to roll out major updates every two quarters (approximately every three months), introducing new features and content. These updates will be followed by patches to address any issues and improve the overall experience. Additionally, our roadmap will offer insight into our development progress and key priorities, keeping players informed about what’s coming next!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Artisan Story in Early Access starts with a single island that includes a unique environment, monsters, and characters. But it’s not complete, and more islands, stories, and other content are still to come. Various UIs are still being developed, along with other aspects of the game’s visuals.

Currently available features are:
1. Tutorial Sequence
2. Crafting Mechanics (Forging, Crafting, and Cooking)
3. Farming
4. Ranching (Specific diets not implemented yet)
5. Combat (All 3 weapon types: Sword, Spear, and Heavy Weapons)
6. Taming (Bait preference isn't implemented yet)
7. NPC Interaction (Dialogue and Gifting, gifting preference isn't implemented yet)
8. NPC schedule”

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

“Depends on the Early Access development and the content that we’re going to add in the future, and we hope that we can maintain the same price from Early Access to full release!”
