“This Early Access release of Cozy Caravan lets players check out the game’s sprawling first region and meet many of its characters, solve their problems, set up shops, customize their caravan, and travel to their heart’s desire,” said Dean Ferguson, Creative Lead on Cozy Caravan and Co-Founder of 5 Lives Studios.
“As we progress throughout development we’ll be adding further regions, characters, and story, but we wanted to give players a massive chunk of the full game to both whet their appetites as well as offer us feedback while we work on the endgame. It’s exciting to be able to develop a game in community with our players, so please let us know what you think!”
