Wozu Early Access?

„We are offering Early Access to share the game from an early stage and see how the community receives it. We want to observe how players interact with its core mechanics, gather real feedback, and use that input to improve the overall experience as we continue development. We believe that involving the community from the beginning will help us make better decisions throughout the development process.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„We expect the game to remain in Early Access for approximately 4 to 6 months, depending on development progress and community feedback. During this time, we will expand content, improve game balance, and optimize performance before the full release.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„The Early Access version includes the playable core of the game and its main mechanics.
We plan for the full version to feature visual improvements, adjustments and expansions to the mechanics, additional content, and a more polished overall experience. The scope of the game will progressively grow as new ideas are implemented and existing ones are optimized, always taking community feedback into account.“
