I backed on Kickstarter — is that my Loftia login?

BackerKit manages crowdfunding fulfillment and Devlog communication. Early Access is a separate buy-to-play Steam purchase. Backer rewards (like Betabara) redeem through official backer flows — not automatically through your beta character.

Can I merge my Beta tester account with my Kickstarter backer account?

No public account-merge tool exists pre-EA. High-intent players often hold two identities today — backer email on BackerKit and a beta key tied to a separate game login. Linking rules are beta est.* until Qloud Games publishes an official FAQ.

How do I redeem Betabara or backer skins at EA?

Official beta messaging says Betabara capybara skin rewards redeem at Early Access for qualifying beta completion. Exact redemption UI (Steam key, in-game menu, BackerKit code) is beta est.* — follow BackerKit Devlogs and the Betabara guide.

Do I need BackerKit if I only played the public Beta?

No — BackerKit is for Kickstarter backers and preorder fulfillment. Public beta keys came from Discord waves and the loftia.gg waitlist. EA access will be through Steam purchase or future official channels.

Will Epic Games Store accounts share progress with Steam?

Cross-save between PC stores is not confirmed. Each platform likely requires a separate purchase — parity with Steam is unknown for Epic's Fall 2026 est.* window.

Loftia Account Merge — Beta Saves & Kickstarter Linking

Beta notice: Account linking and save transfer rules are beta est.* until Qloud Games publishes official EA FAQ. BackerKit fulfillment may change before launch.

✓Last verified: June 17, 2026

Quick Answer

Kickstarter backers and Closed Beta testers often use different accounts today. Beta progress may not carry to EA — rules are unconfirmed. Backer rewards flow through BackerKit; EA is a separate Steam buy-to-play purchase.

Official Fact Check

Qloud Games has not finalized save transfer from Closed Beta to Fall 2026 Early Access — official beta FAQ and community posts say details arrive closer to launch. Kickstarter pledges are closed; ongoing backer communication runs through BackerKit Devlogs. Betabara and tier cosmetics reference redemption at EA per official beta messaging — exact merge or link steps are beta est.*. This page is a planning hub, not an official account tool.

Account / identity	Primary purpose	Beta access role	EA note
Kickstarter / BackerKit backer	Crowdfunding pledge, Devlog updates, backer reward fulfillment	Historical alpha/beta waves via backer channels	EA is a separate Steam purchase — not your KS pledge login*
Closed Beta playtester	Apr–May 2026 playtest progress (islands, inventory, quests)	Discord / waitlist invite keys	Progress carry-over rules not finalized — beta est.*
Steam EA purchaser (Fall 2026)	Buy-to-play Early Access on App ID 2320980	N/A — post-beta public milestone	Expected primary live-service account at launch*
loftia.gg waitlist	Future playtest alerts — not a game login	Email for invite waves only	Does not replace Steam or BackerKit accounts*

Why Players Ask About Account Merge

Loftia's pre-EA journey split across Kickstarter backers, Discord playtest keys, and the upcoming Steam Early Accesspurchase. Many players hold more than one identity — a BackerKit email for rewards and a separate beta login for Apr–May 2026 progress. Search interest for “account merge” and “save transfer” reflects that confusion, not an announced merge feature.

Beta Save Transfer — What We Know

The Closed Beta ended May 6, 2026. Official messaging consistently says save transfer rules are not finalized and will be announced closer to Fall 2026 EA. Do not assume islands, inventories, friendship levels, or quest states persist — beta was positioned as a preview, not a permanent progression branch.

Read the Beta feature scope table for what was testable versus post-beta targets. Even if partial cosmetics carry (Betabara), full world progress may still reset.

Kickstarter & BackerKit Rewards

Loftia raised $300K+ on Kickstarter; fulfillment and transparency updates continue on BackerKit. Backer benefits included alpha/beta access windows and exclusive rewards such as the Betabara capybara skin.

Early Access is not your Kickstarter pledge. Fall 2026 EA is a buy-to-play Steam transaction (App ID 2320980). Backer cosmetics typically redeem through a separate official flow at or after EA — watch BackerKit Devlogs rather than assuming automatic linkage to your beta character.

Account Linking Expectations (beta est.*)

Steam EA login — Likely the primary live account at launch; details beta est.*
BackerKit email — Reward fulfillment and surveys; may require linking to Steam at redemption*
Beta playtest account — May or may not map to EA — no public merge UI yet*
loftia.gg waitlist — Marketing/playtest alerts only; not a game credential

Follow official channels listed on the Events hub for the first authoritative account FAQ — Discord announcements typically precede fan wiki updates.

What to Do Now

Save your BackerKit login and beta key email — you may need both at EA redemption.
Do not over-invest in beta progression until save transfer is confirmed.
Read Kickstarter history for backer tier context vs new Steam buyers.
Wishlist on Steam so EA purchase and any account-link prompts happen on launch day.

Account Merge FAQ

Not confirmed. Qloud Games said save transfer rules will be announced closer to Fall 2026. Treat beta islands, inventories, and quest progress as preview content that may reset at EA.
