Hello, this is the Backroom Company development team.

First of all, thank you so much for your interest in and support for Backroom Company. We are an indie game studio based in Korea, and we are doing our best to provide a better gameplay experience by delivering quick hotfixes and updates.

As the game is currently in Early Access, some bugs and errors may still occur. We apologize for any inconvenience and promise to address any reported issues as quickly as possible.

We will continue to provide regular updates. Since this is an Early Access version, we highly value your feedback and aim to develop a more polished game together with our community. However, as every player has different preferences and playstyles, we kindly ask for your understanding that we may not be able to accommodate every request.

We will do our best to make Backroom Company an even better experience. Thank you again for your continued support!
