Hello Rafters!
February is coming to an end, sun is starting to show its face again, and it is time for this month’s devblog. February has been full of snow and slippery walks to the grocery store, yet this does not stop us from working on the next chapter! We have our blankets, tea, and the most crucial motivation tools of them all, pet pictures and your support!
(Here is one of our artists, Felicia, and her cat Samus. She also has another cat named Zelda!)
We have made a good deal of progress this month regarding the new destinations and the new features. Unfortunately, we won’t be able to show many sneak peeks of them just yet. What we can show, however, is the attack animations of the new enemy! Oh, and let’s not forget they officially have a name now:
[h2]SCUTTLERS[/h2]
Last week, we asked for your help naming the new enemy and got 4500+ suggestions combined on all our social media. Going through all of them, we picked one of the most suggested names; Scuttlers!
Some other ideas we liked were; Crawlers, Pinchers, and Grublings.
Thanks to all Rafters who shared their ideas with us and helped us with this process.
Here are a few of many “Scuttler” suggestions:
Now, let us show you some more Scuttlers action. One of our artists and also our CEO, André, has been working on the attack animations for these creatures, among other concepts and features. Have a look!
[h2]JUICER[/h2]
Do you remember the juicer concept we shared in DevBlog43 ?
Now we have a finished 3D model of it. Our artists Petter and William have collaborated, bringing this machine to life. William was the name behind the concept art, and Petter worked with the 3D modelling and got the Juicer to its finished form.
[h2]Thanks for another month full of Raft! [/h2]
Before we end our blog for this month, we just want to mention that there is no estimated arrival date for the next chapter yet. We know you are wondering about it, but it is too early for us to say. Don’t worry! We will continue to update you on what we are working on and keep you in the loop.
Thanks for another month of Raft and talk to you again next month.
Have a great weekend, Rafters!

[h2]NEW YEAR, MORE RAFT NEWS! [/h2]
Hello Rafters!
We hope you enjoyed your break, played some Raft and stayed safe during the holiday season. We are back at work and excited to chat with you again!
We have spent January continuing to work on development of The Third Chapter, working on the new destinations and planning our roadmap. As much as we can’t wait to show you everything we are working on, we don’t want to spoil too much either. Let’s have a look at what we can share with you this month!
[h2]NEW ENEMY[/h2]
We are working very hard on removing bugs from the game as always, but now, we are also adding bugs! This time it will be your turn to kill them!
You might have already seen them in the sneak peek concept art we have shared this tuesday. But now, let’s talk about them a bit more. Are they friendly? How big are they? Where will they fit in the Raft world?
Nope, they won’t be friendly. You will have to fight against these monsters to follow through Raft’s story. And nope, sadly we are not providing you with bug spray. However, good old machete and some bravery might come in handy!
Another question many of you have asked under the concept art was about how big these creatures will be compared to the characters. Some wished they were tiny, some wanted giant bugs to fight against. Let’s show you with a comparison of them next to Rouhi:
They are not the smallest bugs out there nor the biggest. As we would say here in Sweden, we went for a “lagom” size. Don’t underestimate them however, we can’t promise their bites won’t hurt!
Last but not least, we were asked if they are going to be located on Varuna Point. The answer is, no! They will be on another new destination (which we mentioned in DevBlog#42!). We know you are curious about how this location will look, but we won’t talk more about this new environment just yet. All we can say for now is that it will be crawling with these little buggers and we are having a lot of fun working on it!
[h2]REDBEET FACTS [/h2]
We have been wanting you to get to know us a bit better for a while now and this month, we have finally introduced “Redbeet Facts”. We will share little bits of information about us and on our journey creating Raft! This way, we are hoping to answer the questions you might have for us as well.
