Aloft Has a New Demo Page!

Greetings, Sky Sailors!

Our team has been soaring with joy ever since we announced the release date for Aloft’s Early Access last week. We are finally launching on January 15th, and we hope you’ll love what we’re cooking.



In case you missed it, alongside our announcement, we also launched a dedicated Steam page for Aloft’s demo. You can help us by doing two things here. Well, three.

  • If you haven’t tried the Aloft demo yet, please be our guest and give it a shot. It’s fun! And what’s even better is that you can try the multiplayer feature and play with a group of up to 8 people. Build a cosy base, craft some tools, glide to different islands, restore ecosystems; just play to your heart’s content.
  • If you did play the demo, please take a moment to leave a review on the demo page so we can get your feedback, AND to let other players know what you thought of it. That way we can encourage more people to try it out!
  • Lastly, make sure to wishlist Aloft to help us spread the word and get more eyes on our game. We are working hard to make Aloft something special, and we need your help!

Aloft Sets Sail on January 15! 🌀

Hello Sky Sailors!

We’re excited to announce that Aloft will enter Early Access on January 15th!

This marks the start of an exciting new journey, one where Aloft will continually grow and improve. With the fun and solid foundation we've built, the wonderful feedback from our community, and the popularity of our latest demo at Steam Next Fest, we are incredibly excited for the future of Aloft.

Early Access Coming in January 💨⛵

Ahoy, Sky Sailors!

A couple months ago, we announced that Aloft would be entering Early Access in the Fall of 2024. Following many discussions and much consideration, we have decided to move the game’s Early Access release to January 2025.

We realize this may be disappointing news to many of you, and that’s why we want to assure you that this decision was not made lightly.

We’re very happy with the game’s progress at this stage, but there is a certain amount of extra polish, detail, and fine-tuning that we would love to complete before truly raising the anchor. While we are launching in Early Access, we're committed to delivering a level of quality that surpasses all our previous updates. We want you to be blown away by your very first leap into the skies of Aloft – so this extra time will be of utmost importance for the betterment of the game, and ultimately, the player experience.

The community’s response to our demo updates has been incredibly positive and motivating for the entire dev team. We cannot thank you enough for your patience and continued support throughout this journey.

As always, you can follow Aloft’s development progress on our Community Discord, where we share important announcements, updates, behind the scene content, and more.

We’re looking forward to announcing the exact Early Access release date as soon as possible!
