Why Early Access?

“We've always valued player feedback in shaping our games. The Travelling Land introduces unique gameplay mechanics that blend strategic navigation, city-building, terraforming, and dynamic water management. Early Access allows us to involve the community directly and refine the game around your insights, making sure it grows into the experience players truly want.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Early Access to last approximately one year. However, depending on community feedback and development needs, this duration might be adjusted to ensure the game reaches its full potential.”

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

“We plan to include in the full version significantly more content and features such as additional biomes, new buildings, more species to rescue, expanded terraforming options, and advanced water-management systems. We also expect the game benefiting from extensive player feedback, ensuring improved balance, polish, and gameplay depth. Community input will heavily influence new mechanics, potential game modes, and quality-of-life improvements.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current prototype contains core gameplay loops: strategic sailing, island management, ecosystem building, basic terraforming, and early-stage water physics. While enjoyable, these mechanics are in an early stage, offering a taste of what's to come. Expect a limited number of biomes, species, and structures, with gameplay mechanics still undergoing significant iteration.”

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

“Yes, the price is expected to moderately increase when leaving Early Access, reflecting the additional content and features added. Early adopters will benefit from a lower price as a thank-you for their early support.”

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

“We plan to engage closely with our community through regular communication channels, including a dedicated Discord server, Steam forums, social media (Twitter, Bluesky, Reddit), and direct in-game feedback tools. Players can share their thoughts, report issues, and suggest improvements through discussion threads on Steam, community polls, and structured surveys.
Early testers will have opportunities to shape the game through playtests, feature discussions, and Q&A sessions with the developers. We're committed to transparency, frequent updates, and active listening, ensuring The Travelling Land evolves in close collaboration with its players.”
