The answer first
Official Steam and Nixalon Studios pages control release, platform, developer, and product claims. Timestamped creator videos support only what is visibly shown in the pre-release demo. Two matching routes can support a demo walkthrough; single observations stay attributed and version-sensitive.

- Unverified launch-build facts are kept out of the confirmed section.
What needs more evidence
- Video channel names and upload dates that YouTube did not return during this run.
- Image reuse rights for creator thumbnails or gameplay frames.
- Any fact not connected to a listed source.
What should the player do first?
See exactly which sources support each guide and understand the evidence labels.
Sources action checklist
- Open the cited link.
- Jump to the noted timestamp.
- Check whether the footage says demo or Early Access.
- Send a correction with the page URL, claim, and better source.
Structured guide data
| Label | Use | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Official | Release, platform, developer, product facts | May still become outdated |
| Community video | Visible demo route or interface | Not final-build proof |
| Community | Leads and attributed developer comments | Not equal to a first-party store listing |
Official-source rule
Release status, planned dates, developer and publisher identity, supported platforms, and store availability come from official records whenever possible.
Gameplay-source rule
Creator videos are not copied or embedded as site-owned media. The guide links to them and records what is visible at specific times. A video placed under one keyword may support another page when the footage answers that player task.
Correction policy
A correction should identify the page, the disputed sentence, and a source that is newer or more authoritative. Demo-era routes will be replaced or versioned when live-build verification becomes available.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you copy YouTube videos?
No. The site links to creator videos and cites timestamps; it does not claim the media as its own.
Can one video support several pages?
Yes, when separate visible parts of the video answer different player tasks.
Why are some facts marked unconfirmed?
Because demo footage, community comments, and planned dates do not prove the live-build state.
How can I report an error?
Identify the page and sentence and provide a newer official or hands-on source.
