Craftomation 101 News

Hey friends!

The 256th day of the year is also known as Programmer's Day! That's today.

A huge kudos to all the knights of ones and zeroes, present-day, former, and wannabes alike! Without you, there would be no video games!

If coding at work is not enough for you (we get it) - did you know that there's a dedicated page on Steam's programming games? Check it out:

[h2]Browse Programming games on Steam[/h2]

As for our own programming games - you know where to find them:

Happy coding, everyone!

Hey mates!

A little teaser about bigger things: we've now started working on one of the most requested features from the game, which we will start showing and discussing with you very soon. We will tell nothing more for now. Instead, we'll show our artist's vision of it:



But big features take some time, so while you're waiting, we’ve released yet another new update with tweaks based on your feedback. Here’s what’s new:

[h2]New Sounds
[/h2]
Last week, we added a bunch of new sounds to make the game feel more alive. You’ll now hear audio cues for resource gathering, mistakes, dragging items, and more.

[h2]Campfire Upgrades[/h2]

The main highlight of this patch is new upgrades for campfires:

• Two upgrades now increase campfire duration by 25% each, for a total of +50%.
  
• Campfire balance has been revised: early game campfires now burn longer.
  

These changes were made based on player feedback.

[h2]Bug Fixes
[/h2]
As always, we fixed some minor bugs to improve your experience.

But if you're reading this, you're probably interested in more games from us. And we've got a brand new game (developed by a brand new team, so Craftomation 101 update schedule will not be affected). Meet SuperWEIRD:

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

It's a co-op automation adventure set in… we're not sure? (Seriously, pigs in shades? Fish with hats?)



But it's ok: all you have to do is repair everything, clear this place of corruption, and defeat a bunch of manic monsters. Then you'll get outta here (maybe)!

Use flags to set tasks for hordes of rusty robots! Make them work for you - crafting stuff, making swords and shields - everything can be done by hand, but also automated by tuning the system of flags.

...and/or it all can be done with a little help from your friends:



After everything is set up, watch your army of dysfunctional warriors as they march towards their doom!



You can wishlist SuperWEIRD right away, and also apply for the future playtest - we'll need your feedback to make this game even more awesome:

Disclaimer: We'll mention that again, just to be clear: SuperWEIRD is developed by a separate team. Updates for Craftomation 101 will still be released on a regular basis.
