Hey Creatifriends!
This update is all about helping our newer players get down the basics so they can move onto everything else Creativerse has to offer. You know, like grisly deaths at the hands feet gyrating curves of Hotfoot. Now tips will drop in and guide you through the essentials, like crafting a wood power cell or a processor. If you’re a Creativeteran, these will be turned off for you by default (though you can turn them back on with the console if you’re curious).
(more…)
UI be a little more helpful. Night be a little less dangerous. Bugs be a little less buggy.
That’s R27 in a nutshell.
Behind the scenes, we moved to a new office, took time off for the holidays and have been laying the groundwork for features that won’t be ready for a while. In other words, we acknowledge R27 isn’t as meaty as you’re used to. R28 will have more stuff!
Happy The-Northern-Hemisphere-Of-The-Earth-Is-Tilted-Away-From-The-Sun Day!
Whatever your reason for celebrating over the next several weeks, one most folks agree on is SCIENCE! So let’s kick off the Winter Solstice in style with a celebratory contest! You’ve got two weeks to come up with a creative build featuring the new R26 blocks. On Monday, January 4th, we’ll pick our 5 favorite entries as the winners.
Hey Creatifriends!
Welcome to all of the new players who joined us since we became free to play! We’re glad you found us and hope you stick around.
The end of year holidays may have chilled our usual 2-3 week cadence for releases a bit, but on the bright side, they also gave us a chance to try something new: seasonal goodies! There is, quite frankly, a plethora of stuff with which you can deck your halls. Recipes, accessories, a new liquid (molasses), craftable items — everything but a partridge in a pear tree (would you settle for a Leafi in an Elderwood?). As a cherry on top, we’ve given everyone 450 extra coins, and any new players will start with the same amount. Watch this video to get a taste for all the new stuff…
Creativerse is finally free!
It’s time to open the gates and let everyone in. Now’s a great chance to invite all your friends to your world so you can show off your builds, inspiring simultaneous feelings of awe and jealousy.
New in R25 is the ability to purchase coins through your Steam wallet. There’s also four new block packs in the store to spend those coins on. But remember, all you early supporters just received a big coin bonus. PS: All coins (your existing and new ones) have been spiked with a 10x multiplier, because bigger is better (it’s a tradition here in Texas).
Keep in mind, Creativerse will still be in early access for a while yet, so expect more great things to come in the future. In the short term, we’ll continue to focus on building out the core game.
Finally, we promised all of you early supporters an exclusive bonus gift. Watch the video below to find out what it is ! Keep watching for a few hints at what’s coming in Creativerse’s future.
Hi Creatifriends,
Great news for all you builders and collectors out there. We’ve added 10 new pieces of furniture and 22 new food recipes! We figured the game just wouldn’t be complete without the ability to lounge in style on a Lumite Chair while munching on a Tar Sandwich (P.S: Your pets just called… they can haz some?).
This update also contains the start of a better experience for new players. Our goal is to strike a balance between being mysterious enough that there’s still plenty of discovery, while also gently encouraging new players not familiar with the genre. So there’s better item descriptions, a clearer quickbar, and things like that, as well as a new “Janky House” starter Blueprint you’ll receive upon creating a world.
We appreciate all the feedback you guys had on the recipe tweaks from R23 and have further refined the balance based on it. Finally, we’ve removed the daily coin button. You can read more about that here.
Hi Creatifriends,
Get your arctek plows ready — there’s a lot to harvest in R23!
The biggest change you’ll notice in this one is our refined hotbar UI, which aims to make equipping the new farming and ranching tools more intuitive. But that’s just the appetizer. The main course is our largest block update yet: a smorgasbord of stairs, roofs and walls to spice up your decor. Feast your eyes upon these…
Good news for anyone playing in Europe — you can now select servers closer to your crib. We’re hoping it helps improve lag in multiplayer (e.g. less delay when friends are pulling blocks). It will only apply to new worlds you create after making the switch. Let us know how it feels if you try it.
A couple noteworthy improvements:
As always, we welcome your insightful feedback on this update!
It’s been a while! We’re making up for the fact that we missed our usual 2-3 week cadence by brining you our biggest update in a long time, R22.
We’re excited to introduce Homesteading, a big awesomesauce system where you farm, cook, tame, and harvest to your heart’s content. I’ll let this gif from our game designer fill in the details…
