Why Early Access?

“The game is playable, but I need to hear how it feels to different players. Early Access will help me improve activities such as marbles, how friends respond to you, and the pace of a day in town.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Around 6–12 months from the Early Access launch is the current estimate. This may change with feedback and development progress. I’ll post any changes on the Steam Community.”

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

“I plan to improve activities such as marbles, make friends’ responses feel more natural, and refine guidance, day progression, and celebrations. Animation, visuals, voices, and performance also need more work. Feedback will help set priorities, and I’ll explain changes in community updates.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“You can choose a boy or girl, explore streets, home, school, villages, and travel locations, and play marbles, paper planes, and card games or share snacks. Playable scenes cover school days, Mid-Autumn, New Year, summer trips, and reunions as an adult. It supports Windows, keyboard and mouse, local saves, and Simplified Chinese and English interfaces, subtitles, and voices. It is still an early prototype; try the free demo to get a feel for its current state.”

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

“I plan to keep the current base price during Early Access, then raise it modestly for version 1.0. Any change will be announced in advance. If you already own the game, you won’t need to buy it again.”

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

“Tell me in Steam Discussions what you’d play again, what reminds you of childhood, and what was confusing or awkward to control. For bugs, please include the location, steps, hardware details, and screenshots if possible. Feedback will help shape updates, though I can’t promise to use every suggestion.”
