Release / GRAIN ROT
Demo vs full release
The demo was a Steam Next Fest build and the full game launched August 7, 2026. The current Steam app details do not expose a separate demo entry.
Can you still play the demo?
The demo ran during Steam Next Fest and passed 350,000 downloads according to the launch release. The current Steam store and app API no longer expose a separate demo entry, so availability remains time- and region-sensitive.
What the full release adds
The full release is the August 7, 2026 Steam launch. Only features explicitly described by the official release notes should be presented as launch additions; this guide avoids inventing a content checklist.
Progression and Outpost differences
The shared loop is an extraction run that feeds back into the Outpost builder. Compare the current store description and developer announcements for any version-specific progression details.
Which version should you play?
Use the demo if Steam currently offers it and you want to test comfort and co-op fit. Buy the full game when you want the supported launch build and the complete progression loop.
