Varför Early Access?

“Due to the excessively long development cycle and prolonged iterations, I believe it's time to release a relatively complete version for the players. On one hand, I want to hear the players' thoughts and feedback on the game to make positive adjustments. On the other hand, the reason is of course the financial constraints. Based on these two main reasons, I have decided to release an early access version to get feedback from the community players.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“I think it will take at least a year to fill and optimize the game's content.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“In my original design, the entire supply chain cycle of the game should include the farm, the back mountain, the seaside, and then the commercial street where the products are finally sold. Currently, all parts except the seaside have been completed.

My plan for the complete version of the seaside includes an aquarium, a seafood restaurant, a salt field, and other production and processing buildings, as well as a seaside villa that players can acquire in some way.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“Based on the current development progress, if we disregard the seaside system, the game is already quite complete. There is still plenty of room for enriching the content in many ways. For instance, more shops on the commercial street (Chinese restaurant, cake shop, even a massage spa), more supply chains (additional recipe systems for existing shops), more romanceable characters (travelers who only appear in specific seasons), and more animal pens and plants to grow.

However, even as it stands, the game can be considered relatively complete. The farm includes 11 unique production and processing buildings, the back mountain has 4 production buildings, the commercial street features 8 unique shops, and the town has 4 different levels of villagers' housing. There are 5 romanceable female characters, 4 romanceable male characters, hundreds of supply chains, and some mini-games scattered throughout. I will continue to add game content based on the current framework.”

“The price of the game will increase after the official release.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Players can discuss the game's content through various channels, including the Steam discussion community. I will collect everyone's feedback through various social platforms and adjust the game's roadmap and update direction in real-time based on player feedback.

Player feedback is crucial to me. During the development of the game, I often looked at the reviews and feedback of other similar games to adjust my development direction. In fact, the entire inspiration for the game's creation came from a single comment: "If I could open a shop in this game, even just a grocery store, it would be great."”
