What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“National Transit is a living game that benefits from real player feedback.
We're launching Early Access to build the game together with our community —
your input will directly shape the transport systems, economic mechanics,
and features we develop next. The core gameplay is stable and enjoyable,
but there is much more we want to add.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to remain in Early Access for approximately 12 months.
However, we will only leave Early Access when we feel the game
is truly complete — not on a fixed schedule.”

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

“The Early Access version includes core gameplay: procedural map generation,
city placement, road and rail networks, and the foundational economic system.

The full release will add:
- Complete aviation and waterway systems
- Full company management and operating companies
- Auto-generated economic entities (logistics firms, conglomerates, global HQs)
- Expanded economic simulation and GDP growth mechanics”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current build includes:
- Procedural world map generation with terrain, rivers, and coastlines
- Country selection and basic nation setup
- City and settlement placement across five tiers
- Road and railway construction with terrain cost calculation
- Basic transport fund and revenue system
- Full pan and zoom map navigation”

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

“Yes. The price will increase when we leave Early Access.
Players who support us during Early Access will get the best price.”

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

“We actively monitor the Steam Discussion boards and respond to feedback.
Major decisions about new features and systems will be shared with the
community before development begins. We post development updates
regularly in the Steam News section.”

About This Game

National Transit puts you in charge of a nation's entire transport infrastructure —

from the first dirt road connecting two villages, to a rail network spanning your

country, to aviation hubs that draw corporations within the nation.

Your goal is simple: build connections, grow your economy, raise your people's

prosperity. The rest is up to you.

Every game begins with a unique procedurally generated world. Spin the virtual globe,

find a region that speaks to you — a mountain-locked inland nation, a coastal

archipelago, a river delta — select it as your country, name it, design its flag,

and start building. No two maps are ever the same.

Connect Your Cities

Place roads, railways (standard and high-speed), waterways, and air routes between

cities of all sizes — from remote hamlets to bustling capitals. Every connection you

build generates trade, moves people, and grows your economy.

Watch Your Economy Evolve

Transport infrastructure drives everything. As your network matures, logistics

companies emerge, industrial clusters form, financial institutions establish themselves,

and — if you build well enough — global corporations choose your nation as their

headquarters.

Your Nation, Your Identity

Name your country. Design your flag. Choose your domain suffix. Every nation you build

is uniquely yours, from its geography to its economy to the companies that bear your

chosen name.

Key Features

  • Claim your territory — every map is procedurally generated and unique

  • Realistic terrain, rivers, and coastlines shape every strategic decision

  • Four transport modes: road, rail, waterway, and aviation

  • Organic economic growth driven entirely by your infrastructure decisions

  • Auto-generated economic entities — from logistics firms to global conglomerates

  • Nation customization: name, flag, capital, domain suffix

  • Sandbox gameplay with no forced objectives — your only ambition is prosperity

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

World maps in National Transit are created with procedural (algorithmic) generation — not AI. Terrain, rivers, coastlines, and city placement are generated algorithmically at the start of each playthrough.

Generative AI is used in the following place(s):
• Some of the in-game icons/2D art — a portion are AI-generated; the rest are hand-drawn.

In-game text is written by hand; localisation into other languages was produced with the help of machine/AI translation.
