Proč předběžný přístup?

„I want to put my game in Early Access because I want to build the game together with my players. BarmanSimulator is a game that thrives on creativity, interaction, and emergent gameplay, and I believe that involving the community early will help shape the best possible experience.

Early Access allows me to gather valuable feedback on mechanics, balance, and features, ensuring that the game evolves in a way that truly resonates with the players. I want to refine the drink-making mechanics, customer interactions, and progression system based on real player input. Additionally, community involvement will help identify bugs, improve performance, and add content that players genuinely want to see.

By launching in Early Access, I can ensure that BarmanSimulator becomes a polished and engaging experience before its full release.“

Přibližně jak dlouho bude tato hra v předběžném přístupu?

„We plan to keep the game in Early Access for approximately 6 months, but this may change depending on player feedback and development progress.“

Jak se bude plná verze lišit od předběžného přístupu?

„I plan to expand BarmanSimulator with new activities and extended gameplay mechanics. Currently, the Early Access version includes darts, and I am considering adding other games, such as billiards and card games, to deepen the bar experience.

I am also exploring the possibility of integrating kitchen management, which would allow players to transform their establishment into a true bar-restaurant. Additionally, I would like to add an event system, including live concerts and themed nights, to enhance immersion.

Another area of development involves allowing players to create custom cocktails and add them to the menu, making each bar unique.

I am also considering a competition system between neighborhood bars, where players would have to manage their reputation and attract a loyal clientele while competing with other establishments.

The evolution of the game will depend on community feedback, and I will adjust priorities based on player expectations.“

V jaké fázi vývoje se hra nachází?

„Currently, the core bar management mechanics are in place. Players can serve customers, purchase stock, expand their bar, buy decorations, hire employees, and acquire all the necessary tables and glasses to run their business.

Maintaining the bar is also important—you can clean it to keep it in good condition. Players can also deal with troublesome customers, including those who try to steal from them.

The game already features a full economic system, allowing players to earn money, open and close their bar, and gradually unlock new cocktail recipes to offer more variety to their customers.

Clients are also leaving comments to help you upgrade your bar.“

Změní se cena hry po skončení předběžného přístupu?

„No, the same price will stay from the beginning to the end“

Jak plánujete zapojit komunitu do vývoje této hry?

„I have created a Discord server and a Reddit page. Come here to share feedbacks, report bugs, suggest new features, and discuss the game’s development.

I also plan to post regular updates about upcoming features on these media, gather player opinions on important decisions, and organize playtests to ensure that BarmanSimulator evolves based on community input. My goal is to build this game with the players and make it the best bartending experience possible.“
