A Merchants Promise Build 17999580 - early access

A Merchant’s Promise is a physics-driven trading simulator in Early Access where you handle every item yourself—from the moment you lift it until you set it down or toss it away. There’s no traditional inventory system; the weight, balance and momentum of each object are completely in your hands.

As you rise from a humble merchant to a prestigious King’s Merchant, you’ll navigate dynamic challenges that include:
• Item loss when you drop or mishandle goods
• Changing weather conditions that affect travel and trading
• Light survival elements such as hunger, thirst, health and stamina

Your merchant rank influences how flexibly you can set prices and maximize profits. If you crave higher stakes, you can even enable a permanent-death option for your character.

The interface is intentionally minimal—there are no pop‑up objectives or task lists telling you exactly what to do. Instead, you learn the world by exploring, talking to characters, reading notes and interacting with your surroundings. A thorough in‑game tutorial is highly recommended, even if you’ve already tried the demo, since it will teach you critical differences and mechanics.

Development is ongoing full time, with regular updates driven by these priorities:
• Enriching the game world with more life, depth and immersive details
• Improving NPC behaviors and interactions
• Ensuring consistent, reliable physics-based gameplay
• Optimizing performance so the experience runs smoothly
• Rapidly addressing bugs via a Discord‑based ticket system

Thank you for your interest in A Merchant’s Promise. We’re committed to delivering a polished, engaging trading experience that rewards creativity, skill and a keen eye for opportunity.
