Is there really no way to buy alpha at Steam? Can't you guys release at early acess or something? I have tons of cash on Steam since i keep money for gaming there so i can't really buy games outside of Steam. The fact that i can only pay for the game with my currency (R$) does not help when i have to use the game store from Frontier to buy it. When i payed for Elite Dangerous using the Frontier Store i paid SO MUCH MORE, cash wise, because of the exchange rate, that i regreted paying for alpha when it launched on Steam. With Steam it's convenient because it's all there, it does coin exchange immediately and my money is always there.
TLDR:*I could only buy this alpha using Steam*.

If you bought the early-bird you should have access to the alpha, which rolls over to the beta, and then rolls over to the full release.
If you bought the regular pre-order and not the Early Bird, you will have to wait until the full release date to play. To have access before then you would have to have bought or buy either the Early Bird (which can only be acquired up to the 25th of this month) or the pre-order and Early Bird upgrade (which can only be acquired up to the 25th of this month). Hope that clears it up for you.

Correct me if I'm wrong - I will be getting an email from Frontier, then, regarding the Steam key?

You don't necessarily have to buy something you don't want. Steam has a huge library of games (even games under $5) and a variety of general software, creative software, and so much more. Most of which are at fair prices. Not to mention, anything you buy through Steam, you will easily be able to re-install if you change computers or have trouble with your computer. If all you have to do is spend $5, what's the concern? Chances are that Planet Coaster isn't the only thing you will get from Steam.
In this digital high-speed world we live in, more and more companies are releasing their computer software or games through platforms like Steam, Origin, Ubisoft, GOG, etc. For those companies, It saves costs on retail space, packaging and of course shipping, maybe even server-load. I really don't see why this is going to cause a problem.

It's silly to say go buy something else when he wants to buy and play Planet Coaster. There is no real substitute for this Game except RCT3... So to suggest to "just buy something else" doesn't really work in my Opinion.
EDIT: It's way too early for me... Sorry i completely misread your Post.

Well there is no problem. They already said that the game copy will make a unlocked steam account, no need to spend those 5$. They arranged that with Valve
Just wanna say, that $5 on steam isnt that hard to break if it did exist for activating the CD Key. Just buy a cheap game like Surgeon Simulator to break it lol.
Good thing I have a lot of games on steam already so this isn't as big of a deal , granted even if I didn't, there are steam sales every now & then where you can get games pretty cheap, some even less then $5 if you want to get a deal, heck you could buy a bunch of cheap games to equal $5 total if you look around the site long enough...

It's a good thing you don't need to spend $5 then isn't it?
It comes with the key, Frontier have sorted it.
