The early access Alpha contains 15 levels. We expect to leave early access sometime in 2017

We're spending 3 years making different sized walls for you to blow up in our already fully functional physics engine for some reason.

I hope the list is different/more extensive than the one allegedly leaked, since I have most of those games. I'll also be giving out any extras to my fellow imps in teh imp zone

It looks fun but honestly ... The scale of that game does not require 3 years of development.

I also have a set of personal ideals that means I will never buy an Early Access game on principal

Maybe not, but it's fully playable right now. Hell Nuclear Throne was in for that long and it has been great for a long time

The structure they said for the games was

1 "hot title" game that's less than a year old (Saints Row 4)
1 "highly-acclaimed" game that's one to two years old. (Valkyria)
1-2 hit indie games (Besiege and Grimrock)
1-2 "hidden gems" from developers (Which should be the ones we haven't seen yet)

They said on average 6 games, so there's very likely 2 more if the list there turns out to be correct.

I was really impressed when Prison Architect actually left early access.

It doesn't help that recent games are like 40+ GB. Black Ops 3 is 60 loving gigabytes and that's without any of the map packs or DLC.
