I found this. If it still requires an internet connection, it doesn’t pass that test. But that user could be wrong, and plenty of devs and publishers don’t even care enough to let me know on the store page if their game is worth my time and money.
It requires an internet connection for me to play with a friend. It should not require a connection to Steam or the company’s server for my friend to find my server.
That seems strange that it would be worse than internet play, but this isn’t exactly the strongest recommendation to try it out. Thanks for the suggestion, at least. If the dev ever returns to try to finish their early access game, I’ll keep an eye on it.

You want to host a PvP game server but not if it requires an internet connection? Who would you be playing against without an internet connection?

It has LAN, too, but it was pretty horribly laggy last I heard. Though, I never tried it myself to know first hand if that is true.
