Why Early Access?

“We believe Market Simulation: Rush Hour has the potential to grow into a unique and engaging market management experience.
To reach that goal, player feedback plays a key role in shaping the game’s systems, balance, and future features.

Early Access gives players the chance to be part of the development process, influence upcoming updates, and experience frequent improvements as the game evolves.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Market Simulation: Rush Hour to stay in Early Access for approximately 12–18 months.
During this time, we plan to expand core gameplay systems, improve balance, and add new content based on player feedback.
The timeline may change as development continues, but our goal is a polished and complete full release.”

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

“The full version is planned to build upon the existing gameplay available in the Early Access version.
During development, we aim to improve progression depth, gameplay balance, and overall user experience, as well as explore additional gameplay systems and content.
Some features, mechanics, or content may be adjusted, expanded, or reworked based on community feedback.
These plans may change throughout development, and no specific features or content are guaranteed for the final release.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is playable and provides the core gameplay experience of the game.
Players can currently manage their store, interact with customers, and engage with the main gameplay loop. The essential systems required to play the game are already implemented.
However, content variety, progression depth, balancing, and overall polish are still in development.
The game may include bugs, incomplete features, or temporary mechanics that are subject to change during development.
For a detailed list of currently implemented features, please refer to the “About This Game” section.”

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

“We plan to offer Market Simulation: Rush Hour at a lower price during Early Access.
As new content, features, and improvements are added over time, we expect the price to increase gradually toward the full release.
Players who join during Early Access will receive all future updates at no additional cost.”

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

“Community feedback is considered an important part of the Early Access development process.
We plan to gather feedback through Steam Community discussions, user reviews, and player comments.
Bug reports, balance suggestions, and general feedback from players may help guide development priorities and future adjustments.
Development decisions and priorities may change over time based on player feedback and overall experience.”
