Getting Started
In order to be eligible to play BitCraft's Closed Alpha, you have to have access to a key. As of April 2nd, 2024, Closed Alpha has officially started.
Creating an account
If you haven't yet, you must create an account on the Alpha Hub. Once you have, you will receive an email with a "Secure Login" button that you have to press. This link must be clicked on the device that you want to use to access the Alpha Hub, otherwise you'll have to sign in again.
Sometimes the emails do end up in spam/junk folders, so make sure to check those.
Getting a key
In order to get a key for BitCraft, there are events within the Discord server where they give away Closed Alpha keys. There is also a random chance for you to receive one through the Alpha Hub, so make sure to keep an eye on your email.
Once you have a key, you can enter it in within the game's client.
