Someone in this thread wrote that everyone gets Alpha & Beta access to this game, which seems odd to me, if they list it as a Kickstarter reward for some tiers. So, I was surprised to see an announcement that "Early Access" was coming next month, when no mention of Alpha or Beta access has been delivered to my email address (that I know of).
Can we get some kind of clarification on the topic of Alpha & Beta access? When will it begin, and who is allowed to Alpha & Beta test this game? What is the difference between "Early Access", and Alpha/Beta testing?
