Why Early Access?

“My Café Manager Simulator was created out of a deep passion for simulation and management games - but we believe the best games are shaped alongside their communities. Early Access allows us to develop the game in an open way, listen to player feedback in real time, and shape the systems based on actual needs. With your support, we're building a polished, satisfying simulation of running your own café - step by step, update by update.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to remain in Early Access until the end of 2025. However, this may change depending on community feedback, the complexity of planned features, and overall interest. That said, this is our latest projected release window - and it’s entirely possible the game will be ready earlier.
We’re focused on quality, not speed - the game will leave Early Access only when we feel it's truly ready.
”

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

“The full version of My Café Manager Simulator will build on what’s available now, heavily shaped by feedback and suggestions from our community. We see Early Access as a shared space for experimenting with ideas, refining mechanics, and discovering the right direction for the game.
Our goal is to ensure the final version reflects what players truly want - which is why we’re always listening and adapting based on your input.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version includes a fully playable core gameplay loop:
Opening and managing your own café
Customizing your menu
Cleaning tasks
Ordering supplies (snacks and beverages)
Responding to customer feedback and meeting their needs
Dynamic customer reactions to service quality (reviews, messages, frustration meter)
Designing and decorating your café interior
Unlocking new beverages with upgradeable machines
Unlocking product licenses
Most systems are already functional and actively being expanded. We regularly release new content and features based on community input.”

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

“Yes. The price will gradually increase as we add new features and expand the game. Players who join during Early Access will receive all future updates at no additional cost.”

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

“Our community is at the core of everything we do. We have an active Discord server where players:
Share ideas and suggestions
Report bugs and help shape development priorities
Participate in polls and community votes
Get sneak peeks of upcoming updates
Chat directly with the developers
We publish devlogs every two weeks so you always know what we’re working on. You can find the Discord link on our Steam page and join the conversation anytime.”
