Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« We’re launching Hotdog Hustler in Early Access to grow the game with the community. The core systems — making and selling hotdogs — are in place, but there’s plenty more planned. Early Access gives players the chance to shape new content, features, and the weird world we’re building.
