Terms of the draw
Last updated Thu 12 Nov 2026.
Tetra Studios is letting a limited number of players into Shatter Rush's Demolition Mode before it opens to everyone. Because more people want in than there are places, we pick by draw. These are the rules.
Entering
- Entry is free. There is nothing to buy, and buying something won't improve your chances in the draw.
- You must be 16 or older and have a Steam account.
- One entry per person, and one Steam account per entry.
- You're on the list once you've confirmed how to reach you and signed in through Steam.
Entries
Everyone on the list has 1 entry. You can add more, up to 9 in total:
- 1 if you signed up through a friend's invite link.
- 1 for each friend who gets on the list through your link, for your first 5 friends.
How we pick
- We pick in waves. We decide when each wave happens and how many players it lets in.
- Each wave is a random draw from everyone on the list who hasn't been picked yet. Each entry is one chance, so a player with 3 entries is three times as likely to be drawn as a player with 1.
- If you aren't picked, you stay on the list for the next wave with all your entries.
Squads
You and the first 5 friends who get on the list through your link are a squad. When one member of a squad is drawn, everyone in that squad who is on the list at that moment gets in too. Friends who join the squad afterwards are in the next draw like anyone else.
If you get in
- We email you and your entry page changes to show it.
- Access is tied to the Steam account you signed up with. It can't be moved, shared, sold or swapped for anything.
- Demolition Mode is unfinished. It will have bugs, it may change or be taken offline without notice, and progress may be wiped.
- Access lasts until the playtest ends, which we'll announce.
Playing fair
We can remove an entry, or access already given, if someone signs up more than once, uses automated signups or fake accounts to farm entries, or cheats in the game.
Changes
We may change wave dates and sizes, or end the playtest early. If we change these rules in a way that affects your entry, we'll say so on this page before the next draw.
