Why Early Access?

“The basic game is playable: build routes, supply the fronts and bring the wounded back to a hospital. We want to see how people use those routes, where the controls are unclear and which operations need difficulty adjustments. Early Access gives us a way to make those changes with feedback from players.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Early Access to last around 12 to 18 months. This may change as development progresses and we learn from player feedback.”

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

“We plan to keep the same route-building and fleet-management gameplay in the full release. During Early Access, we intend to make the controls and attack warnings clearer, adjust the pacing and difficulty, and fix bugs.

We will announce any additional operations or supported platforms once they are built and tested.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The launch build is planned to include seven playable operations: Introduction, Survival, Tokyo, Berlin, Rio, London and Cairo. Meet an operation's objective to unlock the next one. Later operations are map previews only and are not yet playable. Their release dates have not been set.

The current build includes route extension, shortening and endpoint changes, vehicle assignments, automatic transport and combat, and the ability to save and resume a run. It is a Windows single-player game with English and Japanese support. Gameplay works offline; leaderboards and achievements are available when connected to Steam.

You can try Introduction, Survival and Tokyo in the free demo.”

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

“We plan to launch Early Access at a lower price than the full release, then raise the price to reflect the content added and improved during development.

Regional prices and any launch discount will be finalized before release. If this policy changes, we will announce it on the store page in advance.”

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

“You can share feedback and report bugs through Steam Discussions or the support contact on the store page. Comments such as "I wasn't sure what this button did" or "this operation felt too difficult" are useful too.

For bugs, a description of what you were doing and a screenshot can help us investigate. We will prioritize bugs we can reproduce, while also using feedback from playtests and surveys to decide what needs work.

This is a solo project, so we cannot take on every suggestion or promise a fixed update schedule. We will weigh how a change affects the game against the work involved, and explain which suggestions we are taking forward or setting aside where we can.”
