I'm coming into this a bit late, but...

I have 2 "Early Access" games via Steam, one I had seen many "Let's Play" videos on youtube, one my brother had....

They are:
Besiege and Space Engineers.

Besiege works fine, but Space Engineers dropped the DX9 32bit version, so I'm waiting on the WINE developers (I run Linux) to get the DX11 redirects coded for the 64bit version to work.

Both are limited in what "options" they have, levels etc...

My brother wanted me to get Minecraft so we could play something co-op since I switched over to linux, but the never ending adding, tweaking and "we don't like this, so we're changing it so you can't do: <what ever it is you were doing that we don't like>", in a way, prepared me for the "Alpha/Beta" stage of the Early Access games.

Although I can understand why you would not like if a company changed direction with a game that up till 'version X' you liked...
Sometimes it seems like developers can be "Bipolar" in their directions with a game.

What I have to do is remember the following: I changed a mod I was working on twice, tweaked various things multiple times. And I was simply adjusting a few things, not designing from scratch...
So I try to keep that in mind.

However, I also don't like it when they ruin a good game...
