What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Nautical Survival is already in an advanced stage of development, offering a complete and enjoyable core experience. Early Access allows me to collaborate directly with players — gathering your feedback and suggestions to help shape the game’s future. The goal is to make Nautical Survival the best it can be by refining it with your input.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I currently estimate around 6 months of Early Access. However, this may change depending on community feedback and the scope of features that evolve during development.”

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

“The goal for the full version is to add more content and improve overall gameplay. This may include new boats, crew members, weapons, outposts, enemies, and boss battles. The focus will be on refining gameplay and balance based on community feedback to provide a more polished experience at release. Plans and priorities may evolve as development progresses.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“On release, the Early Access version will feature: ~20 minute runs, procedural levels, 8 unlockable seacrafts, 12 crew members, 13 weapons, 5 upgradable buildings, 3 boss battles. The full core loop is playable, with lots of replayability and room to grow.”

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

“Yes, the price will increase at full release to reflect new content and improvements added during Early Access.”
