What belongs to which version?
The Demo includes core systems, perks and an upgradable Haven. Its opening content should not be described as the full game or a complete-map walkthrough. An Alpha-only feature in the patch is not a Demo instruction.
What to do before the window.
The Demo announcement says the free Steam Demo is available to everyone. That does not, on its own, confirm every Alpha access requirement. The saved evidence does not contain a complete Alpha registration or eligibility procedure.
Demo progress is confirmed to carry into the Alpha Test. Full-release carry-over is a separate question: read the Legacy Points and launch boundary.
Open the official Steam DemoSteam Demo App 4488770. Check the official announcement for any newer test instructions.
