Is the demo no longer available?
Everything seems to indicate you download the demo from the store page but there is no demo available

yes, demo ended, you'll have to be patient and wait, was fun while it lasted though

Yep, time to uninstall. Taking the demo away for no reason made the decision easy to not buy the game. They could at least have the demo remain functional and they chose not to for no good reason so. Bye and back to Transport Fever 2.

If you have it installed you can still launch it manually

it was a demo for a reason to demonstrate the game, it wasn't the full game, bit of an overreaction to just abandon it just because the demo ended

7 hours of frustration. Roads "not connected". Then when you think you are starting to be able to manage this fubar interface, the trains just get stuck with spinny timers that constantly rest. Demo ending was a blessing. He's not uninstalling because the demo ended. On my last try - my 1st train simply would not leave the depot (no path to station).

Such a bizarre way to roll out a game. Never saw a company pull a demo before. My guess is they got such a bad reaction about bugs and odd "features", they decided to pull it and, hopefully, work out the issues demo users were having before release.

It was planned to be pulled from the start, as part of a special Steam-demo-week sort of thing that a bunch of upcoming games were part of.

No. Clikcing the Sweet Transit start button leads to the Steam page of the game.

And another game to ignore from now on!
The only reasons, from a dev's perspective, to remove the demo is if it's totally broken, or if it would lower your sales by showing how bad or empty the game is.

well wanted to play but was getting confused on tutorial so did not get far was going to return. I do think you should have a demo of the game after release at least to learn about it thank for working on it.

how can u guys even get confused on the tutorials...?

The tutorial where you place signals to get a t track station to run - completes to 100% and then afterward jams up. go figure

The purpose of the demo was to attend the steam festival and gather some valuable feedback. Right now there are many improvements I am working on, we will share them in the near future. Having a demo up and running would only limit me in working on the main version of the game as they differ quite a lot at this point.

One of the issues is that some people are having a hard time playing the game even with the small content the Demo had to offer. This is understandable as this game offers some complex mechanics. Accessibility will be addressed before and during Early Access.

Demo not working, Really do not understand why Developers would release a demo and only give limited amount of time to play, Just restrict the game to how far the player can go in the game instead better then limiting the time and give players chance to use the interface and get use to the basic of the game. This really bad and put my off as I work and did get much chance to play the demo correctly. May not purchase full game now :(
PS should not roll out a demo if Developers could not handle it and most other game do not have any problems and demo remain for much longer period most forever.
