Creativerse News

Somewhere deep in the great lands of Creativerse, beyond the Miru forests, Leafi plainlands, and even further beyond the Trog mountains, a giant PING broke into the atmosphere. For a moment, all Creators went quiet, for they had never before heard such a sound before…

Where did it come from? Why did they get the sudden craving for Duck Hunt and hairspray?

Little did they know, this was the Great Glitch—a random mishap ushering in strange blocks and props, and even a different kind of Creator (more into New Wave music and velcro, you see). The arrivals called themselves, Supers. Creators called them Blocky. After some negotiations, it was decided the Super Block Heroes were welcome to stay in the hopes they would bring forth new creations, new art, and new possibilities. After all, you know what they say…what’s old is new again!

In addition to the arrival of the Super Block Heroes, this update also includes a Unity upgrade! This should immediately relieve some of the constant stuttering many of you have reported and allow us to more easily improve it even further down the road.

As always, we thank you for your continued support and feedback!

Thank you to everyone who entered their amazing entries to our Underwater Build-off! In total, we had 135 underwater creations, and everyone who participated was rewarded with 150 coins! (Fun fact: you can witness all the great shots on the Artwork section under the hashtags #OceanEmotion).

If you did not get a chance to participate in this event, stay tuned! We will have more community build-offs in the future.

Stay Creative, Creators!

Hello Creators!

We wanted to let you know that yesterday we had a hotfix to fix an undetected bug which prevented new players from creating their own world (which is super not great).

We wanted to reiterate that All players are supposed to get their own world. We're sorry if you were affected by this issue.

We've since fixed the bug with this hotfix and reached out to those affected. If you were affected, the next time you log in, your own world will be there waiting for you.

If you encounter further issues, please email us at [email protected].

It’s the weekend! Remember those?

Let’s commemorate this one with an water-themed community build-off! It’ll be fun and most importantly, rewarding. As in, everyone who participates will receive 150 coins for the Creativerse store!

To participate, simply build something under water, or build something featuring the new Atlantis blocks. Remember: we’ve added a new Ocean Potion that allows you to move faster and breathe longer underwater. We also now have a new water mob, Karrotfish, whom you will need to politely murder to unlock the first of the Atlantis blocks.

The most important step: post a screenshot of your build to Artwork on our Steam hub and include #OceanEmotion in the description text. Do this before Monday at 9am Central US time and we will credit your Creativerse account with 150 coins to spend however you choose. We hear the Rockster Claw is nice.

We will be adding our favorite screenshots to our in-game loading screens, so be on the lookout for those.
