Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Trading Kingdom is a single-developer project that aims to deliver a rich trade and strategy experience. The core gameplay mechanics are in place, and the game is currently playable. However, due to its sandbox nature, unexpected issues may arise in different playthroughs. Early Access allows us to identify and fix these issues faster with help from player feedback. That’s why this phase is very important for shaping the game together with the community.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'The length of the Early Access period may vary depending on player feedback and the development progress. According to our plans, this phase is expected to last around 7-8 months, with the full release targeted between Q4 2025 and Q1 2026. We will soon share a detailed development roadmap that will provide more information about this timeline. However, at this stage, it is not possible to give a definite release date.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The full release will feature a more advanced trading system, an improved AI system for rival traders, and additional regions with new trade routes such as the Silk Road. Players will also be able to establish trade guilds and freely choose locations for village construction. Furthermore, pet ownership—such as dogs and cats—and companion recruitment, among many other features, will be included in the full version.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Trading Kingdom is currently in a demo state with the core gameplay loop implemented. Players can develop their villages, engage in trade, compete with rival traders, and manage various resources. The map system, character progression, basic economic mechanics, and some cinematic scenes are complete. However, the game is still under development and will be expanded with new content.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'During Early Access, we want players to have access to the game at a more affordable price. There will be no price increase during Early Access; the price will only increase slightly when the full release launches with new content and features. This way, players who join early will benefit from a better price.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'Player feedback is very important to us. We aim to maintain active communication with players through our Steam Community page, Discord server, and social media channels. The most requested features and improvement suggestions will be prioritized in our development roadmap. Additionally, when suggestions are posted in the community, players can receive clear responses from the developer about whether those requests can be implemented.'
