Join Me & KatherineOfSky For A Developer Live Stream



Hey everyone!

Over the last few days KatherineOfSky has been deep-diving into Clanfolk and I'm thrilled to say that she allowed me to join her on her channel as she played through the game. Without influencers like Katherine, Clanfolk wouldn't reach all the people it needs to, and I'm incredibly grateful for the fact she has not only played a huge amount of the game, but has fallen in love with it.
Her six part series is available over on her channel (see above!) and if you want to just view the livestream I recently participated in, you can view that below.

Be sure to visit her channel, like and subscribe and leave a comment on her Clanfolk content, it'll mean a lot to both me and her.

I'm pleased to say that Clanfolk has officially confirmed its launch date: July 14, 2022!

Launching into Early Access is going to be an exciting time and I can't wait for you all to not only begin your journey in the Scottish highlands, but for me to also react to your feedback and for us to improve the game together. Between now and launch there will be plenty of updates that I can't wait to share with you. If you haven't seen it, there's also the new launch date reveal trailer that I'm super proud of.

Clanfolk looks like RimWorld set in the medieval Scottish highlands

Clanfolk is colony sim set in medieval Scotland, in which you manage generations of Archibalds and Duncans and attempt to survive each harsh winter. It looks a lot like RimWorld, and it's aiming for an early access release this July.

We've Got New Key Art :)



Hey everyone!

I think it's fair to say that as a small studio, finding the time and budget to focus on things like key art and a fancy Steam page, when you're hard at work actually making a game, is challenging. With that in mind, I'm incredibly pleased to announce that we've managed to find an amazing artist in Daniele Lieske who has brought our vision for Clanfolk to life.

Key art (especially gorgeous key art) plays a huge part in gaining Wishlist's, folks viewing and visiting your Steam page, as well as capturing the imagination of those you're hoping to entice. We loved the principle of our old art (a family returning back to their homestead) but it simply didn't reflect the quality we were searching for.

What Daniele has so brilliantly captured is a focus on family, harvesting and your homestead, but also the looming spectre of winter. Having the scene divided by lush landscapes and barren snowy fields, with abandoned snow-bitten buildings in the east is exactly what we were after. Afterall, we all know most won't survive the winter...

Below you can find the early stages of the process, alongside our final version. We hope you love it as much as we do!
