No Early Access, no roadmap

In the release-date announcement the team wrote that the game "will go straight into a full release, no Early Access, no feature addition roadmaps." On launch day the publisher repeated that the game releases "as a complete product" and that the team will watch feedback and fix bugs, but is not promising future feature or content additions.

What changed between the demo and release

According to the publisher's launch article, the full game added cross country competitions, desensitization training, beach and mountain trail rides, more horse patterns, horse personality traits, more quests, achievements, staff members and walks with mares and foals. The demo stopped after 25 in-game days; the full game has no day limit.
