Why Early Access?

“When I originally had the plans to make this game, back in 2017, I thought Early Access would be a good choice. I am passionate about this game. However, back then I didn't realize I didn't know everything I needed to know to make my dream game come true. In addition some nasty things happened in my personal life which prevented me from working on this game for several years. I was also homeless for part of that time. At one of my lowest points I met some great people including my mentor, a retired president of a department of Boeing Engineering, who helped me and gave me job opportunities. In 2021 I was hired to work for a game company as a coder. Fast forward to 2025 and I've learned what I needed to learn and understand so much more about game development and software programming in general. Now I wish I never went the Early Access route. If I could do it over again I would have a Steam game website setup with the release date "To Be Announced" with videos of the game's progress as I develop it. Then when it's finished I would release it as version 1.0. I apologize to those who were excited for this game and have been disappointed for many years. I am determined to finish this game and maintain it while continuing my indie dev journey.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“August 7, 2025
The goal is release a major update on August 29, 2025. This game will still be in Early Access after the update but will be playable. It will be several more months before this game is out of Early Access.”

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

“The full version will be a 3D space simulation game where players can design their own star systems and their own ships. Players will start in one system in the galaxy/sector and be able to explore, build, fight, trade their way to glory! ”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“No space sim game play yet. Current version has an unfinished standalone tool for creating Star Systems for the game.”

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

“Price planned to change as product develops.”

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