Why Early Access?

“Gun Trader is a simulation game that focuses on player interaction and evolving gameplay systems. Early Access gives us the opportunity to gather valuable feedback, prioritize the right features, and shape the game alongside our community.
As an indie team developing this game with limited resources but tons of passion, we truly need your support. Your feedback, suggestions, and ideas will help us unlock the full potential of this project. Building this game with the players—not just for them—is at the heart of what we’re doing.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to keep Gun Trader in Early Access for approximately one year. During this period, we’ll be adding new content, improving core systems, and adjusting gameplay balance based on community feedback.

Our goal is to maintain a transparent and player-focused development process. While we have a clear roadmap, the timeline may shift depending on the feedback and support we receive from players. We want to shape the full release together with the community, step by step.”

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

“For the full release, our goal is to make the Gun Trader experience deeper, richer, and more dynamic. Building on the current foundation, we plan to add:

A wider variety of weapons and items

New customer types and improved AI behaviors

Upgrade and customization systems for your shop

Dynamic economy systems like price fluctuation and demand-value balance

Steam Achievements, cloud saving, and controller support

Expanded animations, sound design, and visual polish

The full version will reflect community feedback and offer a more refined, complete experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version of Gun Trader includes the core gameplay systems. Players can manage their gun shop, place weapons on shelves, sell to customers, and earn money to restock. Core mechanics like physical money handling, customer behavior, day-night cycle, and dynamic pricing are already implemented.”

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

“Yes, we plan to increase the price when Gun Trader reaches its full release. Early Access players will not only get the game at a lower price but also have the opportunity to actively contribute to its development.”

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

“We want the community to be at the heart of our development process. Player feedback, suggestions, and bug reports will be extremely valuable to us. We’ll stay actively engaged through the Steam Community Hub, our Discord server, and social media channels.

With polls, suggestion forms, and regular updates, we aim to listen directly to players and evolve the game accordingly. Our goal is to build a game not just for the players—but with them.”
