Wozu Early Access?

„We believe that building Sproutmart alongside our community will result in a more enjoyable and well-balanced game. Early Access allows us to gather valuable feedback on core systems like shop management, farming, and customization while continuing to expand features, polish content, and improve quality. Player input will help us prioritise what is most fun and important, shaping Sproutmart into the cosy grocery shop simulator everyone wants to play.“

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

„We plan to stay in Early Access for at least 12-24 months, but this could change based on development progress and community feedback. Our priority is to ensure the game reaches a level of quality and completeness that meets our vision and players’ expectations.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„The full version is planned to include:

Expanded shop features: more products to stock, advanced pricing and marketing options, and additional customer types.

Deeper farming gameplay: more crops, trees, and farm upgrades for your backyard.

Shop and farm customization: more furniture, decorations, wall and floor options to design your perfect shop.

New mechanics and events: seasonal events, customer requests, and potential delivery or cooking systems.

Performance and visual improvements: overall polish, UI refinements, and quality-of-life additions based on community suggestions.

We will use Early Access to refine existing features, balance the game loop, and add meaningful new content without overpromising specific expansions or timelines.“
