Varför Early Access?

“Towerfolk offers a city-building experience that can grow stronger with player feedback. Core gameplay systems—such as resource gathering, construction, caravan management, and defending against thieves are already functional. However, we need community insights to make the game more balanced, smoother, and highly replayable.
Early Access allows us to expand content gradually and shape the game based on real player behavior.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“I don't want to give a precise timeframe, but I estimate that the development process may be completed within approximately 4–5 months. The pace of development will depend on community feedback, the scope of the systems we plan to add, and the balancing needs of the game. I plan to move Towerfolk to full release once it feels stable and complete.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“We plan to offer a broader range of content in the full release. Our goals include:

Expanding building variety and adding new production chains.

Bringing optimization to its highest level.

Adding new game modes.

Introducing more detailed mechanics affecting villagers’ behavior, population systems, and village development.

Making rival factions more complex, including sending assassins or scouts and acting more realistically and effectively.

The full release aims to be a deeper, more balanced, and more replayable version of Towerfolk.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The Early Access version includes:

A resource gathering system and core building mechanics,

Rival interactions and trading with other villages,

A fundamental economic loop that supports village progression,

Features such as theft, caravan interactions, and royal announcements,

A stable user interface, core control scheme, and overall optimization.

This version is fully playable and provides a complete experience on its own; however, as development continues, some systems will be expanded and improved over time.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“As I add new content and features over time, there is a chance that the price may increase slightly for the full release, but this is not certain.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Community feedback is extremely valuable to me and to the development of Towerfolk. For that reason:

I plan to actively read and consider suggestions on the Steam discussion forums,

I plan to release balance patches and small content updates based on player feedback,

I intend to prioritize suggested building types, difficulty options, and quality-of-life improvements according to community input.

My goal is to shape the game into a city-building experience that evolves together with the community’s wishes.”
