Dlaczego wczesny dostęp?

„I’m developing this game solo. Comprehensive testing at this scale takes a lot of time for one person, and I’m still actively building and tuning the mechanics across all chapters. I chose Early Access to help catch and fix issues faster, validate stability on a wide range of hardware, and iterate with community feedback. The core loop is playable, and I plan to refine pacing, difficulty, and station progression with real player data during Early Access.”

Mniej więcej jak długo gra będzie w fazie wczesnego dostępu?

„I plan to keep the game in Early Access for about 6–12 months. However, this timeline may change depending on player feedback, balancing, and the addition of new stations or systems. If needed to maintain quality, I may extend this period, and I plan to update the roadmap over time.”

Czym różni się zaplanowana pełna wersja od tej z wczesnego dostępu?

„For the full release, I plan to add more content, tighter balance, and broader quality-of-life and accessibility features. This includes additional station types, varied thief and pirate encounters, extra cards and recipe combos; finer tuning of the difficulty curve, station routing, order flow, and threat frequency based on player data; a larger card pool with light meta-progression to enhance reward loops; deeper control customization, UI options, readability, and feedback improvements; performance optimizations, bug fixes, and visual/audio polish; expanded Steam integrations like achievements and cloud saves; and gradually broader localization support. These are goals rather than promises, and priorities may shift based on community feedback.”

Jaki jest obecny stan wersji z wczesnego dostępu?

„In the current Early Access build, the core loop is fully playable: I prepare and drop orders from the right-side queue, expand the kitchen as new stations unlock each chapter, slap coin-snatching thieves after deliveries, and later repel pirate raids with ingredient launchers before jumping back on the line. The 8 chapters x 3 days structure is active; end-of-day card picks add a touch of luck, and players can spend earnings on gear or cover hospital bills. I’m actively refining balance, pacing, and accessibility, and I plan to roll out performance optimizations and bug fixes through regular updates. Additional content, visual/audio polish, and quality-of-life improvements will be added over time.”

Czy cena gry ulegnie zmianie podczas i po wczesnym dostępie?

„Yes. During Early Access, I will keep the price more accessible, and I plan to increase it gradually as I add content and features (new stations, event variants, balance and QoL improvements, etc.). The timing and scale of any adjustments will depend on scope growth and player feedback.”

Jak zamierzacie włączyć społeczność w wasz proces tworzenia?

„I plan to gather feedback through Steam Discussions, a short in-game form, and (if available) Discord. I will share regular patch notes and roadmap updates, and occasionally run surveys and public test branches to refine balance and quality-of-life improvements together with players.”
