Creativerse News

[h3]There are 2 kinds of people in the world...[/h3]

Indoor people and outdoor people!

Are you more of an indoor person? Do you like organizing your spaces with just the right combination of decor and color and making everything super cozy and chill...then spending the afternoon by the fire? Or do you prefer to be outdoors, exploring, adventuring far out into the horizon, slaying ferocious beasts, and/or building something epic?

Maybe you’re a little bit of both.

But deep down, everyone leans one way or the other.

So look deep inside yourself, find out which way you lean, and show us who you are!

Specifically, post a screenshot of something you’ve made that is either an interior shot or an exterior shot. Or, if you found a particularly interesting, untouched spot in your world, fire up the Creative Camera (instructions below) and make the shot yours.

Post your screenshot on our Steam’s Artwork hub with the hashtag #insideoutside before the deadline, and we’ll reward you with a pack of 5 Qbits just for participating!

And ten participants will be chosen as winners, receiving as bonus prizes: 1) 300 coins, and 2) the rare, elusive Trophy Gauntlet set, featuring Gold, Silver, and Bronze variants (these are not available in the store).

P.S. we’ll be adding your entries to the in-game loading screens throughout the event!

Howdy Creators!

Let me tell you a tale about the old west. No, not that one. I’m talking about the wild wild west of Creativerse, circa 2015, when we first added homesteading to the game. Since then, y’all have enjoyed taming and naming pets, farming and harvesting crops, and making and tasting all sorts of delicious foodstuffs. Now, as we celebrate the 5.583th anniversary of that update, we’re adding some items to really bring out the frontier in your worlds.

Whether you’re a cowboy, pioneer, farmer, rancher, outlaw, rugged individual who prefers seeing the world through sepia-tinted glasses, or just a Creativerse fan who likes new stuff, you’ll find something to enjoy. Specifically, you can find them by searching for "western" in the Creator Mode menu, or in the regular old crafting menu. Be prepared to head out to the "frontier" for some of the ingredients (or you can grab a starter pack from the store).

The best part: all recipes are 100% free! Yeeeeeehaw!
