Why Early Access?

“We want to build a strong connection with our player community early in development. While the core framework of Starsand Island is in place, we believe player involvement can truly shape the game's future. Early Access allows us to refine mechanics, add new content, and ensure the final version reflects what players actually want. Think of it as your chance to help us grow this game together!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to stay in Early Access while we gather feedback and roll out updates, until the game feels complete. This will likely last at least 4 months, but the exact timeline depends on community input and our development pace. We'll keep everyone posted on our store page and through update logs.”

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

“Based on your feedback during Early Access, we'll keep expanding the game. Expect a longer main story, more quests, and new features. We're also exploring the possibility of multiplayer and looking to add more creatures and building options. Our goal is to make Starsand Island a richer, more diverse life sim—though the specifics will evolve with your suggestions and our development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Starsand Island already offers a solid single-player experience. You can explore, farm, raise animals, craft, fish, and build your home. We're still fine-tuning balance and squashing bugs based on testing, and we plan to add more content and adjustments as the community guides us.”

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

“We do not plan to change the price after Early Access.”
