The Demo is LIVE!
Hello miners,
The demo is live. Right now, for everybody. No access request, no waiting for the next wave, no queue. You download it, and you go to work.
(The state has approved expanded access to the mine. Productivity is expected to rise.)
What's in it
The core of the game. You go down, you work, you try to hit quota and you come back up. What it is not is the whole thing, so here is exactly where the demo stops.
- Six trips into the mine per run, which is enough to cover two quotas.
- Some of what lives down there. There are more creatures waiting in Early Access and we would rather you met them later.
- Fewer items and less variety in the mine chambers than the full version.
- No escape machine and no endings. Those are Early Access.
(Shift allocation has been capped at six descents. The state considers this generous.)
We are reading all of it
More than 5,000 of you asked for playtest access and a huge number of you wrote to us afterwards. This build is the shape it is because of that, from difficulty balancing all the way down to the snow that was appearing under a table.
So do it again. Play it, break it, tell us what happened.
The fastest way to reach us is Discord. We are in there every day, we read the bug reports and it is where we ask you things before we decide them. If you want a say in what this game becomes, that is where it happens. Join the Union
One more thing
We have news about when you can play the whole thing. Not today. Soon.
See you down there.
