Hvorfor tidlig adgang?

“Potion Tycoon is conceived as a deep and fairly complex fantasy shop management game with plenty of elaborate elements and moving parts, artfully bound together under the hood to create an easily grabbing, yet enjoyably detailed and long-lasting playing experience like no other.

It’s an ambitious goal that is indeed hard to achieve. And we’ve already laid down a solid groundwork for Potion Tycoon to become an excellent game one day. But now, looking at the core we’ve built, we can see multiple routes that can lead to that destination. We believe that the choices to be made at the next stages of development, however minor they might seem, can eventually make a significant difference and shape Potion Tycoon into a remarkably different dish to relish. Therefore, we feel that involving the gamers’ community into paving Potion Tycoon’s unique path to completion (and ultimate glory) is one truly right step to take next.

We would thus like to launch Potion Tycoon on Early Access and use it as a springboard to reach out to a larger gamer audience and, in particular, to the fans of the tycoon game genre. Do you think you are one of them? Brilliant! Let us invite you to join us on this exciting journey!”

Those will be added to Potion Tycoon during the Early Access phase based on our EA development roadmap and, importantly, the input we’ll receive from the players.”
