Why Early Access?

“Body Sushi is entering Early Access so we can bring the game to players sooner and get your feedback while we continue adding content. Early Access allows us to improve the gameplay, fix bugs faster, and shape the game based on your suggestions. Your input will directly influence the final release!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“3-6 months”

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

“Early Access gives you a playable version of Body Sushi with:

• Core recipes and restaurant management mechanics

• A handful of characters to interact with

• Basic progression and unlockables

We plan to work on the following items after Early Access:

• Many more recipes, ingredients, and combinations

• Additional characters with unique behaviors

• Polished visuals, animations, and UI improvements

• Improvements suggested by the Early Access community

Early Access is your chance to shape the game, and the full version will be a complete, refined, content-rich experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access is fully playable with the core gameplay and several recipes, characters, and restaurant features. It’s a fun experience on its own, and we’ll continue adding more content, polish, and features based on your feedback until the full release.”

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

“We're not planning on changing the price when we leave early access.”

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

“We plan to involve the community throughout Early Access in several ways:

• Active feedback loops: Players can submit suggestions, balance ideas, bug reports, and feature requests through Steam discussions and our in-game feedback form. We’ll review this input regularly and share development notes about what’s coming next.

• Public milestone roadmaps: We will maintain an updated Early Access roadmap. Community feedback will directly influence feature priorities.

• Regular builds & patch notes: We’ll release frequent updates and provide detailed patch notes that highlight improvements inspired by player suggestions.

• Playtesting & polls: We will run playtests and community polls (on Steam and Discord) so players can vote on certain design decisions.

• Open communication: We’ll stay transparent about progress, delays, and design choices. We want players to feel like they’re part of the development process.

Discord is one channel for discussions, but it’s only one part of a broader community-involved development plan.”
