- New Workshop Rules
- Contact us, if you want help with your Creations
Hey there, Ylanders!
Update 1.1 has successfully released and we’re busy at work with not only more game improvements but also changes to the Workshop. As you know, Ylands has evolved fast over the last couple of months and we want to make sure that the Workshop is a safe place to share your creations and experience what other Ylanders made for you so we’re introducing new rules for content submission. These rules serve as a way to both give more information on how to create appealing and safe content and as a clear guide on what we won’t allow on the site from now on.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the rules you can always contact me here, on Discord, or send me an email at [email protected].
Together with introducing new rules, we’re going to do a “review” of the Workshop and check for any submissions that don’t follow the rules or don’t work for technical reasons. There are many old games that don’t work with the current version of Ylands and in order to promote quality content, we need to take them down as well. This review will happen over the next two weeks so make sure all of your creations are up to date and don’t violate the rules before February 17th.
If you have an old game, you'd like to preserve and fix, contact us and we'll be glad to help.
And so, until next time,
stay classy Ylanders.
