Alaska Gold Fever News

Hello, explorers and adventurers!

Before we dig into the usual stuff - a quick heads-up:

[h2]We're preparing a playable demo, and it's just around the corner![/h2]

It'll let you test out a bunch of core mechanics, including crafting, gold digging and the satisfying art of not freezing to death (survival elements).

But today, let’s talk about the crafting system (you will use a lot it in demo)




Whether you're patching up your busted shovel, cooking up some food crafting is absolutely essential in Alaska Gold Fever.
You won't find gold just lying around (okay, maybe a little) , you’ll need tools, and tools need parts, and parts need... well, you get the idea.



That’s where our crafting table comes in!
Here’s a peek at the many workbenches you’ll be using to build your gold empire:


We’ve designed the crafting system to be immersive, logical, and easy to understand.



Out in the Alaskan wilderness, there are no corner stores or ("Froggy shops"). You want a pickaxe? Build it.
Need a wooden pillars for goldmine? Better start chopping wood. Broke your axe? Time to fix it before sundown or say hello to frostbite.



You’ll get to test the crafting system hands-on in the upcoming free demo, along with:

- Survival mechanics

-Resource gathering

-Equipment maintenance

-Hunting

-And, of course… a little taste of gold fever

Hello, explorers and adventurers!

We are still developing a demo but in the meantime: take a close look at some details in Alaska Gold Fever!



This week we focused on filling the world with the kinds of small things that make big vibes.
Let’s talk details.
Small, visible assets can add a lot to a game atmosphere!

Examples: You’ll find wooden statuettes tucked away in some of the more "cozy" cabins - think about local craftsman meets haunted souvenir shop.



There’s also a suspiciously clean glass jar turned fish tank, complete with a very resilient little fish who’s somehow survived years and possibly a few frost/defrost cycles.



We’ve scattered hats, empty bottles, old boots, and mysterious stains throughout homes and hideouts.
Because what’s Alaska without a bit of clutter and character?
Some houses must look like real living spaces!





Outside, old boats got some love.
We hung up a weather-beaten life preserver and added a ladder that definitely looks sturdy. But hey, it works. Usually.



All these assets are small, but together they help bring life (and mild concern for tetanus) to the world of Alaska Gold Fever.

Hello, explorers and adventurers!
Today, we’re slicing into a topic that started with simple bush-cutting but quickly turned into something much more…


That’s right, we’re talking about the machete - your new best friend when things get up close and personal!

Originally, we thought it’d be a tool for clearing vegetation, but let’s be honest… this is Alaska Gold Fever. Out here, the real use for a big blade is fighting for survival.

Unlike the pickaxe, which wears down quickly from mining, the machete holds its edge much longer. But you can't use it for mining :D Don't ever think about that !



The shovel is strictly for some basic farming - digging small holes, planting, and maybe even unearthing a few buried secrets ;) . If you’re thinking about using it as a weapon… well, let’s just say the machete will get the job done much better.

And shovel will have no use in mines - a bucket is taked it's place already.

Smooth animations. Just look at that little detail :D
