What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows us to focus on the overall stability of the application, performance improvements, and bug fixing. It also helps us continue developing features and improving internal systems such as menus and interactions. The user interface and tutorials are not yet finalized and will be improved progressively during development.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“We estimate that Early Access will last roughly until the end of 2026, depending on development needs, particularly to improve overall stability and continue evolving the application's features.”

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

“We plan to improve the overall stability of the application and reduce bugs. We also aim to add more features and provide more refined and optimized menus and user interface.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version is functional and the main features are available. The application is still undergoing stabilization, and some features are still being developed or improved. The user interface and tutorials are not yet finalized and may evolve during Early Access.”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to gradually increase the price as new improvements, features, and optimizations are added and as the application continues to evolve.”

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

“Community feedback plays an important role in development. Players can share their feedback on the application's community page, report bugs, suggest new features, and share ideas to help guide development priorities.”
