What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re excited to launch Coffee Bonds in Early Access to start building our community from the ground up. As an independent developer, we believe that the best way to create a truly immersive and cozy life simulation is by collaborating with our players. Your feedback and suggestions will be invaluable as we refine the cafe management, relationship-building, and narrative elements of the game. By involving you early, we aim to shape Coffee Bonds into a warm and welcoming experience that resonates with everyone.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We anticipate that Coffee Bonds will remain in Early Access for approximately 9 to 12 months. This timeline will allow us to implement all the features we have planned, refine the gameplay mechanics, and fully integrate community feedback. Our goal is to ensure that the final version offers a rich and polished experience, with the depth and warmth that make Coffee Bonds truly special.”

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

“While the Early Access version of Coffee Bonds will offer a rich and engaging experience, we plan to introduce additional content and features in the full version to further enhance your connection with Hearthstone Bay, incorporating your valuable feedback and suggestions. We’re considering adding new relationship dynamics with the townspeople, expanding the business in exciting new directions, introducing additional quests, more coffee recipes, and expanded customization options for your cafe. We’re committed to refining the game based on your feedback, ensuring a polished and bug-free experience. Our goal is to make Coffee Bonds a game that continues to surprise and delight you long after the full release.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of *Coffee Bonds* provides a cozy and engaging cafe and life simulation experience. Success in Hearthstone Bay depends on building meaningful relationships with the townspeople. Your Reliability and Cafe Popularity scores, influenced by your interactions, directly impact your cafe’s growth and personal progress.

Manage, customize, and expand your cafe, unlock upgrades, be social and build good relationships, hire staff, and take on side quests that reflect the unique needs of the community. The trust you build with locals determines the tasks you receive, customer quality, and supplier prices.

The core gameplay is complete, offering a full experience where cafe management and community relationships intertwine. Future updates will bring additional content and features based on player feedback.”

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

“The price of Coffee Bonds will likely increase once the full version is released. We want to show our appreciation to early supporters by offering a lower price during Early Access. As we add new content and features based on your feedback, the final game will reflect its expanded value. Your early support means the world to us, and we’re grateful to have you on this journey with us.”

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

“We’re excited to build a strong community around Coffee Bonds and involve players in the development process. While our Discord server is launching soon, we’re currently gathering insights by studying reviews and feedback from similar games to understand what players value most. We look forward to engaging directly with you through discussions and feedback. As we progress through Early Access, your input will be crucial in refining Coffee Bonds, adding new features, and addressing any issues that arise.”
