Next DLC development log - Toxicity

[p]Hello terraformers!


We are back at work on Planet Crafter after taking some holidays!


After the free Moons Update, that added 2 new moons and interplanetary travel to the game, we are now working on a new paid DLC.

This will be a brand-new planet. The main theme will be pollution, hence the codename "Toxicity".

In this planet, in addition to your usual terraforming, you'll have to use new tools and machines to clean up biomes and recycle elements, while increasing the overall purification level of the whole planet.

Are you prepared to transform a toxic wasteland into a lush environment?!


We want to give you as much content as we can in this DLC, so we still need a few months to cook, but expect other news from us in the coming weeks! After that DLC, we'll focus again on free updates and improving the base game for a while, as we did in the past.

We are still amazed by the creativity displayed by the Planet Crafter community, and we wanted to, once again, give a shout out to some of your incredible creations!

What's next?! A Lot!

Hello terraformers!


It's been 3 weeks now that the Moons Update has been released. We spent this time reading your feedback and trying to fix what we could to improve your overall experience. Our small team of 6 has been hard at work to polish all the content we put into this free update to make it even better.


We couldn't be more grateful as the game just passed 50,000 Overwhelmingly Positive reviews on Steam, and it's so rewarding to see you all play the game in many ways we didn't anticipate!


We will now start to work on our next content. As announced previously, this will be a new DLC. We can already tell you it will be a new planet, with new mechanics and story telling. Codename: Toxicity.


We have other exciting things planned for Planet Crafter, but for now, we'll keep them secret ;)
