Why Early Access?

“The game has 10 planned Chapters, and not all of them have been completed yet.

I'm releasing in early access to receive player feedback and support development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Tides of Succession will be in early access until it's complete. Visual Novel development is quite time consuming and there can be a number of unforeseen setbacks which make it very difficult to predict exactly when it will be finished.

Based of the current development pace, I would estimate end of 2027.”

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

“I plan to include a full 10 Chapters with 10 unique endings.

Note: Players who purchase Tides of Succession in Early Access will receive all future updates for free.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the game is 1 Chapter.”

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

“Yes, the game will be cheaper during Early Access.”

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

“All comments and reviews will be read by me. I take feedback very seriously and it's an important part of my development process as I wish to produce one of the greatest AVNs out there. Furthermore, I'm willing to chat with any user regarding theories, feedback or my development process. I am very active on my official Discord server and will be able to respond to any concerns, questions or feedback quite quickly. I also release weekly development logs regarding the current process of development, informing users of what's happening and where the current progress is at.

Feedback will primarily be used to improve the pacing of the plot but will also be used to improve the dialogue and visuals in-game.”
