What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I believe that involving the community in the development process is the best way to make a successful game.

I am a solo indie dev working with the help and feedback of the community during live coding and art session on Twitch and in discord.

I m looking forward to getting even more player feedback so we can iterate and improve the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The Early Access phase will end as soon as possible. I aim to release the game to the public as soon as the beta starts in 2025. The beta will last until most bugs are discovered and fixed. I hope this will end during the end of 2025.”

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

“The Early Access version is fully playable but the AI players are still very passive.

All the features listed in the "About This" section are already implemented and working except for:
  • Declaring independence
  • Trading with neutral stations

I aim to include additional content in the full version. The content is driven by player feedback and may include:
  • Diplomacy
  • Challenging AI competitor
  • More lore and random in game events
  • Bug fixes and a lot of polish

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is fully playable but the AI players will not be actively competing against you.

All the features listed in the "About This" section are already implemented and working except for:
  • Declaring independence
  • Trading with neutral stations

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

“Price will not change when we leave early access”

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

“Every feedback is more than welcome. I do weekly live development stream on https://www.twitch.tv/tobugis where I speak with the community and take advices. I am also active on our discord server and easy to contact: https://discord.gg/eqxF58uqjC

The community is already a great part of Gate Builders as regular viewers have their idea and names integrated in the game”
