According to the game developer, a giveaway of 60 keys will be celebrated as part of the daily contests IndieDB started making recently. Here's the announcement (second paragraph in this link):
QuoteGiveaway on IndieDB
Another great news is that I’m giving away 60 Steam keys for Orange Moon. It was approved by IndieDB and coming Aug 13th, 2016, which is Saturday - http://www.indiedb.com/giveaways/orange-moon. Good luck to all participants!

Also, in case you want to check if the game is worth your time, you can download a demo here (IndieDB) or here (itch.io).

About the demo: Be aware, you will need to set the file named "OrangeMoonDemo" as executable and add ".sh" to the end of the filename to be able to even launch it.

Note: For some strange reason, it isn't possible to download it through the itch.io app, because the link doesn't appear. Liam has opened a bug report about it.

Finally, be careful: if you buy the game now, since at Steam it only supports Windows at the moment, you won't be able to play it! Therefore, if you liked it, it's better to start Following it or putting it in your wishlist, because there isn't even a confirmed full release date:
QuoteApproximately how long will this game be in Early Access?
“Orange Moon will be in Early access until all features planned are implemented.”
