Why Early Access?

“Sandustry is an open-ended game that can be played in many different ways. The way I play it may not necessarily be how other people are playing it. Therefore it's key to develop it together with the community as early as possible and collect feedback. The goal is to focus on the core mechanics and iterate until the community approves of the final roadmap.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“One year.”

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

“I plan to add more content such as new biomes, equipment and buildings and a full story mode before the full version is released.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Everything that is currently in "About this game" is implemented.”

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

“I plan to raise the price once the full version is released.”

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

“I will closely listen to the community and discuss feedback on Discord and the Steam forums. I will also encourage players to send in gameplay footage to get a better understanding of how players actually play the game, which differs a lot due to the sandbox nature.”
