The Demo Drops TOMORROW — Friday June 12, 10 AM PST

GRAIN ROT · published 11 Jun 2026, 19:00 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

IT'S IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS.

📅 Friday, June 12 🕙 10 AM PST / 1 PM EST / 6 PM GMT

Mark it. Set an alarm. Tell your friends. The Outpost needs rebuilding and the Deep Layers aren't going to survive themselves.


⚠️ IMPORTANT — PLAYTEST KEY NOTICE

All existing playtest keys will be deactivated one hour before the demo drops on Friday. If you have a playtest key, your access ends at that point. The demo is right around the corner. Stay tuned and jump in the moment it goes live.


TO EVERY SCRAPPIE WHO'S BEEN HERE FROM THE START:

This is the moment we've been building toward. The demo is your chance to bring new people into the world we've been growing together. Every person who plays it, wishlists it, and tells a friend is a wandering Spark finding their way to the Outpost. Help us get the word out!

If you enjoy the demo, feel free to leave a review. It makes a bigger difference than you might think.

Have feedback after playing? We want to hear it. Join our Discord and post in the #suggestions-feedback forum channel. Every piece of feedback goes directly to the team.

🏆 DEMO WEEK CONTESTS

Four contests. Four chances to win Secondary Playtest Access and a limited edition pre-launch GRAIN ROT merch pack. Clip of the Day, Most Viewed Clip, Best Build, and the Sticker/Meme Contest, running June 12 through 19.
