Wozu Early Access?

„We chose Early Access to involve players directly in the development of Mall Control. By joining early, you can help us refine gameplay, test core mechanics, and make sure the experience is both fun and balanced. Early Access also allows us to gather valuable feedback on shop types, management strategies, and multiplayer dynamics. This helps us improve the game continuously and shape new content with the community’s input.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„We expect Mall Control to remain in Early Access for around 6 to 12 months. During this period, we plan to introduce new types of shops, expand the city with new zones, and add extra gameplay mechanics. Our goal is to gradually build a richer and more varied experience, while actively listening to community feedback to improve existing features.“

Expanded multiplayer content: We’re exploring the addition of new cooperative missions and competitive gameplay elements to encourage both collaboration and rivalry among players.

Improved AI and interactions: We plan to enhance customer behaviors, rival shopkeeper interactions, and add more dynamic nighttime gameplay for added tension and challenge.

Live events and community challenges: We’re considering online events and community-based challenges where players could test their management skills and potentially compete on global leaderboards.“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„The price is currently set for Early Access and may change as we introduce new content and features. We plan to increase the price as we add more updates and enhancements to the game. However, Early Access purchasers will receive all future updates free of charge, and the final price will reflect the full version of the game once it's officially released.“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„The community will play a central role in the development of Mall Control. We plan to rely on player feedback to:

Improve gameplay: Feedback on shop balance, sabotage systems, and online interactions will help us fine-tune the core mechanics.

Add content based on community interest: Whether it's new types of shops, customization features, or AI improvements, we’ll prioritize popular requests to shape future updates.

Host public tests: We intend to run regular public playtests to experiment with new features before integrating them into the main game. Players will be invited to take part and help us shape the final experience.“
