Tinkertown News

Lovely Tinkerers,

Today is our Birthday! ːsteamhappyː Tinkertown has been growing for 2 years in Early Access and we’ve come a long way. It’s exciting to see how much our community and Tinkertown itself has grown and we can’t thank you enough for the ongoing support and feedback you’ve given us.

Now, after 2 years, we’re almost at the end of Early Access, preparing the Lava Biome for its release and a few minor events to add some more content and get rid of all the bugs and issues left!



So let's celebrate this day by adding the Volcano Dungeons to the experience:

• 3 Dungeons, spread across the Biomes.
  
• Each Dungeon is filled with various new enemies, loot, weapons, armor sets and a Boss.
  
• The Volcano Dungeons introduce the upcoming Lava Biome and the chests at the end of each of those dungeons will reward you with a special item that you will need once the Lava Biome Dungeon is available.

Looking back we’re very proud of our accomplishments, especially since this whole endeavor started with just two people till launch and grew into a small core team of 5. We can’t wait for you to see the rest of the content we have in store for you and will hope you continue to support us and play Tinkertown as much as you did before!

Thank you for your ongoing support! ❤️
The Tinkertown Team!

Dear Tinkerers,

it’s getting warmer! Just before the Lava Biome, some new Locations emerged all over Tinkertown to celebrate our upcoming second birthday!

Yes, Tinkertown will be 2 years in Early Access as of December the 3rd!

And with this, the Volcano Dungeons will join the preview branch: In our newest update we’re introducing three new small Dungeons, stuffed with new enemies, puzzles, traps and loot. Each Biome will have their own variant of map, style, enemies and boss and grants you a unique item that you will need in the upcoming Lava Biome’s Dungeon.



Since the Volcano Dungeons are the most dangerous places yet, there’s a special tool to enter them. In case you’ve played through the Ice Dungeon you’re already in possession!

• 3 fiery Mini Dungeons with new encounters and traps, 1 per Biome
  
• 7 new enemies, including 3 bosses that guard 3 mysterious relics
  
• 4 new weapons
  
• 3 new and awesome sets of equipment
  
• 5 new crafting materials
  
• A new chest to store your goods
  
• 3 new tracks and new sound effects, for an epic dungeoneering experience
  
• Improvements for jumping mechanics
  
• Multiple small bugfixes

If you want to test new features and content early, get to the Preview Branch:

1. Go to your Steam Library in the App and Right-Click on Tinkertown
   
2. In the Drop-down select “Properties”
   
3. Within the Pop-Up go to the Section “BETAS”
   
4. Choose “Preview” as the beta you would like to opt in
   
5. If you would like to go back to the Live Version, please select “none” again
   
6. Wait for the update to finish and start the game as usual

We hope you’ll enjoy the new content and can’t wait for your feedback 🙂 The Update will move to the live branch this Saturday!

Thank you for your ongoing support! ❤️
Phil & the Tinkertown Team!
