Hytale's developers don't plan to release it on Steam right out of the gate, as they're keen to avoid "overindexing on negative reviews" in early access.
To some extent I can understand that tactic depending on how much money they have to continue production. If the choice is to do as you state and potentially get the game in good shape, or just push as far as you can go until the money runs out and release it everywhere I’d say the former is the smarter play.
