For context: The Land Beneath Us game was revealed in Dec 2023 during an exclusive Xbox Demo Fest, and we have continuously worked hard on improving the demo+game quite a lot after all the feedback and it is also why our demos are still up on all platforms. Especially on Steam, after the Steam Next Fest in Feb 2024 ended, so anyone can try it before they decide to play the full game, which is coming out in two weeks!
