Why Early Access?

“Pub Sim has reached a pinnacle point where it has created the foundation to how the rest of the game will play, from this we have a planned vision of how Pub Sim should look, however we like to work from player feedback. This way we can get to completion in a much greater state and we feel that Early Access is the perfect way to get there.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Once all our planned features are in-place plus the most immediate community suggestions we'll be happy to consider this as 'fully released'. We're very conscious of feature creep and therefore the more ambitious ideas will be worked on afterwards to prevent a long EA cycle.

Based on this and the development time we've so far accumulated on Pub Sim, we can expect this will be achievable within 6 months.”

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

“We plan to make regular updates to the following areas:

• Increased Customization options
  
• Improvements to early, mid and late games
  
• Extra realism in all possible areas
  
• General quality of life + bug fixing

”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Pub Sim is in a stable state that gives the player our core gameplay:

• Cleaning
  
• Drinks serving
  
• Staff Management
  
• Stock Management
  
• Economy 1.0 - Our first iteration to how money is earned and spent

”

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

“No, we don't agree with FOMO practices, therefore the EA and full release will share the same price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We're strong believers that involving the community on all levels of development is a recipe for success, we like to remain super transparent about our plans and we heavily encourage our fans to air their opinions, the good and the bad.
