Alphas and Betas
9 years ago

Hello,

I currently speedrun A Hat in Time, and it is currently in Alpha. How would I go about requesting the game, since it is not released yet?

If the game gets a listing, how will times (and categories, leaderboards, and everything else) from the Alpha build, Beta build, and final release be separated? Thanks!

Well, presumably after the game is released, there will be no need for alpha and beta times because the full version will be released.

A lot of PC games have associated version number that changes over time. I'd probably just put it all under the same game for now, but start categorizing it under "Alpha" even though nothing else exists yet. I foresee most of the new stuff obsoleting running the old stuff, so the alpha could be phased out eventually.
