RELEASE FAQ
A window,
not a countdown.
Keep an eye on announcements directly from the developer.
Does Family Time have an exact release date?
The current Steam release window is January–March 2027. An exact day is not officially confirmed.
Does Q1 mean a January launch?
No. Q1 covers January, February and March. A release window does not promise a particular month or day, and development plans can change.
Will there be a free public demo before release?
There is currently no official free public download available. A future free demo date is not officially confirmed in the sources reviewed.
Does itch.io’s ‘Released’ label mean the full game is out?
The itch.io project label is not a Steam launch announcement. The same page describes active development and directs demo access to Patreon. Refer to the current Steam release window for the full Steam release.
