Hello, Bloodstained fans!
I backed this game for a total of three copies. I backed two copies for xbox one, and one for the pc. (two +100 tiers, and one +60 tier)
I ended up with one code. I was wondering if it was intended only to grant one code, or was it intended to grant for all three? (total of three steam codes?)
I didn't really think of this till the last moment, so, I'm stuck wondering how my brother can play the demo. ( I want to give my brother a code as I backed for him)

I think the demo was released only for Steam. It's a vcery very early demo though, so that's probably why. As they make more progress on the game I'm sure they'll release larger demos for all the platforms

The demo is ONLY for steam right now, and unless your brother also had an account on kickstarter, or backed it and had a separate email/order, then only you will get the demo. It's only one per customer, no matter how many copies you buy, unfortunately.

Seems kinda backwards..but I suppose there is a reason for this. Thanks again!

Steam is just an incredibly useful and easy to use/distribute platform for software distribution in terms of both sales and giveaways. This is by Steam's design as well as its incredibly expanding userbase, as well as promoting a lack of piracy.
As such things such as distributing the Bloodstained demo is like to happen through Steam, and isn't likely to change any time soon, especially when the appeal is to give favoritism to the backers of the kickstarter. Whenever the decision happens to make the demo available for everyone, then I imagine a separate download link will be given for everyone.
Edit: Seeing that you backed multiple times, you should have been given codes for every $60+ tier you backed.
If you paid for a $60 tier, and then made a separate backing for another $60 tier, you should have two codes. If you paid for a $250 tier, and made a separate backing for another $60 tier, you should still have two codes. If you only backed once intending to get a digital and physical version, then you should only get one code.
From the sound of it, you paid on three separate occasions of $60 or higher, so you should have three codes. The question remains, did you complete three surveys? One of the requirements for getting a demo code was to complete your survey(s) by June 13th. You should have a survey for every separate time you've backed.

I completed all questions well ahead of time. I only recently added the PC copy after hearing about getting into the beta.

You should contact Fangamer about this. Should've done that from the start I imagine, I sent a email to support just now. I'll let you guys know what the reply is.

Unless you used more than one email to purchase your tiers of the demo, you will only get one Steam key. "Do I get it? We're sending the demo to anyone who pledged at a $60 tier or higher on any platform and filled out their Fangamer survey by June 13. (But the demo itself is only playable on Windows.) You'll be receiving your key at the e-mail you used to back the Kickstarter. " /posts/1609242 (source)

I'm fairly positive that I used the same e-mail for both of my purchases. The difference in my case, is that I paid once through Kickstarter and once through Paypal, to minimize risk of things like this happening due to me confusing the rules.

That's odd, I'm fairly certain in the comments section of the kickstarter, one of the mods said that you would only be getting one steam key for the email that you used. I would find it and source it but...the demo is out and I would have to scroll through hundreds of comments soo.... screw that haha. Well if you got 2 steam keys then, maybe there's still hope for you! Just let us know what fangamer tells you parodiusdaryl

Just activate family sharing ;o) I'll let him play my demo at some point when he comes over (I'm sure he will!) From my understanding I had one order with two add-ons, I think that might explain why I only had one key. It's per order.

Don't want to hijack this thread but I have some questions regarding the tiers as well.
I am looking to upgrade to the Alchemist's treasure tier.
What's the deal with a Steam version of the Physical copy? Do we know how they will handle shipping? Basically how long would one need to wait to get the physical copy + code for steam. I assume you will get a regular disc with the game on it and a serial key that you will need to enter in Steam.
The 125 tier. I assume you get 2 copies of the game, physical and digital. So if I am really only interested in PC gaming, I would basically get 2 codes for steam.
The special backer content. Do we already know what this is? I haven't followed the development of the Kickstarter since it was funded, sorry if it is common knowledge by now. Recently got into it more actively because of the modding possibilities! =]

As far as the special backer content goes, I know that there will be a special boss that only backers will have access too. I'll see if I can't find this info and source it for you, fatihG Ok, source on the backer-exclusive Boss: /posts/1258115

LeoLeWolferoux That would be awesome thanks! Looking at the Images parodiusdaryl posted, what are the clans? I heard in a video of some guy playing the demo that there would be clan weapons, would this be related? (Special backer content?) Or do we all get access to the clan weapons?

I remember buying physical copies of Sins of a Solar Empire, and when I installed them on my computer they ran on Steam fine

Or do we all get access to the clan weapons? Yes, we all get access so long as we have the codes.
