Hotfix 1.0.17 - Even MORE Stability

  • Fixed an issue where loading a game could potentially cause a crash later in the game due to existing Quests not being cleaned up after loading a game
  • Fixed (hopefully) several potential issues after creating a character and going into the game with the game crashing or ending up in an infinite loading screen due to the loading screen suffering from unexpected engine behaviour
  • Added a button in-game to open up the Pause Menu
  • Added extra bulletproofing for the Grindstone to better handle unexpectedly intense input causing crashes and softlocks when clicking on it repeatedly with a held item in hand

Hotfix 1.0.15 out RIGHT NOW! Big stability fixes!

  • Fix crash caused by missing check for splitting items in rare cases.
  • Starkeeper's Starmap can now be eaten by the trash worm.
  • Missing Geode Hammer's will appear back on game load.
  • Fixed a feather in the mountains not being pickupable.
  • Fixed several typos in dialogue.
  • Fixed Articy state being wrongly set on Saskia sabotage quest - this rendered the sabotage ending unachievable.
  • Fixed Trinket Bag not being received when collars are added on Shop instead of Workshop. Now Trinket Bag cannot be moved out of the Workshop until its content is complete. Added UI counter on Trinket Bag to show how much is pending to be able to deliver.
  • Fixed several crashes with Manaaki's Collars, Umbracine's Pendants, and Karwathi's Pendant's quests involving putting completed items into the Trinket Bag and multiple necklace cords/leather collars attaching to a single pendant/tag.
  • Made blueprint white check button more obvious.

Hotfix 1.0.10

Hi everyone! We have some quick hotfixes for you, dropping in version 1.0.10:

  • Made Leather Collar Edible and Inventoryable.,
  • Made Necklace Cord Inventoryable.,
  • Fixed Geode Hammer moving outside of screen on workshop.,
  • Added extra collisions on Smithy to avoid objects going outisde of Smithy.,
  • Fixed almanac crashed on empty page drag.,
  • Added aesthetic icons to notepad.,
  • Added non aesthetic notes to notepad (Ex: Erik's Compass quest).


We're still investigating what's going on with a rare crash right after creating their character. Usually it doesn't seem to happen again on second try, and/or if you turn *off* High Res Textures in the Menu (accessible when launching the game or hitting the ESC key on your keyboard). After you get through character creation you can try re-enabling the High Res Textures if this solution works for you!

Thank you for your patience! More fixes to come soon! ^_^

CraftCraft is released!

Hi Crafters!

Leene, the Creative Director, here and I am just so happy to announce that ✨ THE GAME IS OUT! ✨and we have a 15% off deal to celebrate it! It has been a rollercoaster like journey full of highs and a lot of hurdles with some lows. But today is a day to celebrate!

We are so thankful for all the support. Watching people play on streams and sharing their in-game creations in our discord makes us so happy. This is why we make games and want to continue making games - it makes our day to see somebody enjoying our creation. Anyways, I will get back to the point without getting too mushy!

Important thing we wanted to mention: if you are having any issues with the game, let us know in our Discord, we have been trying to fix any edge cases/bugs you stumble upon as fast as possible (talking about hours or days not weeks)! You can join here https://discord.gg/h8ancVAqvf and also welcome to just chat with us or share your creations!

The game is out now, but this does not mean we are done with making things for it! We have plenty of plans to add to this game that we are sure players will love and that all depends on how well our sales do. But we will keep you updated about our plans! But as of today, we feel like the game is a complete and we are very proud of the story and environment and gameplay and fantasy it offers!

We also have some awesome bundles with some awesome games to celebrate our release!
Of course we have a bundle with our own past game, Death and Taxes! If you already own it, CraftCraft will be even cheaper for you!
CRAFT AND TAXES

We have one also with Trash Goblin! We couldn't say no to it as it is such a similar game but both games really have their own strenghts, and they are out of early access so check them out!
CRAFT GOBLIN

And one with Winds of Change, It is great to bundle up with such a good antromorphic fantasy RPG!
FLUFFY FANTASY

Oh one thing, we got some requests already to add Steam achievements so we are working on that and we will hopefully get those up and approved soon too!

Anyways, I hope you enjoy the game!
Leene ❤



Release Update: Our deepest apologies

Hello Crafters!

We're sad to say that you are currently not able to buy CraftCraft here on Steam just yet, because our release time has passed, and Valve has not approved the game build. We first submitted the build on 16th of May, finally got feedback on the 22nd of May, where the only complaint was that the person testing the game did not find any way to verify the "Romance" part of the game. Romance was not fully implemented yet, but it was still there. If they would have played the game for longer, they would have easily met one of the many romance options in the game. However, we decided to bite the bullet and simply remove all mentions of Romance from our store page and send it into review again immediately in the hopes that the turnaround for the re-review would be quick.

We were wrong. That still not happened, and our game is still in their review queue.

We're very sorry about the inconvenience, and obviously we're all devastated. What should have been a day of joy and celebration has been one of the most depressing days of my life as a game developer. Everyone who has worked on this game has high hopes that it does well and the feedback we've had from our lovely community has been overwhelmingly supportive.

We can't wait to share CraftCraft with you, we just don't know when that will happen.

However, CraftCraft is still going to be available today on other platforms. You are welcome to join our Discord to find where (hint: it's on GOG) ^_^


Sorry again, and we hope to have an update for you all soon!


Much love,
-Oak @ Placeholder Gameworks
