Why Early Access?

“E-Commerce Simulator is a systems-heavy game that mixes simulation and management. Early Access allows us to gather player feedback on balance, mechanics, and quality-of-life features while gradually expanding content such as new products, automation tools, and workshop upgrades.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate that Early Access may last around 8–12 months, but this timeframe may change depending on community feedback and development needs. This timeframe allows us to polish the core systems, add meaningful progression, and implement community-driven features before full release.”

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

“For the full release, we plan to include features such as:
– Expanded product catalog
– More automation options
– Additional workshop upgrades
– A deeper economy system
– General performance and polish
Please note these plans may evolve during development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version currently includes the core gameplay loop—ordering, production, packaging, and shipping—along with early implementations of 3D printing and vehicle mechanics. The player can purchase basic cars and use early driving functionality to move around the environment or transport items.

In addition, the player can manage a simple marketplace system, maintain inventory, and fulfill customer orders.”

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

“We expect the price to increase after Early Access, but the final pricing has not been decided yet.”

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

“We want to actively involve players throughout Early Access. Feedback channels will include:

Steam forums & discussions

Discord community polls

In-game feedback forms (planned)”
