What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Throughout development of The Last Craftsman, player feedback has been incredibly valuable. I'm just a solo developer, so sometimes I focus on the bigger picture and lose sight of the details. I'd like to open development up to players as soon as possible so the game can benefit from the suggestions and feedback of others.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The full game will be in early access for about one year. The early access updates will be split up so that new content is released every couple of months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Current plans for the final game include:
  • More Craftsman Ranks (with more craftable items)
  • Additional Floors in the Ruins (with more cards to unlock)
  • More Automation and Machinery Mechanics
  • New Tool Mods and Mods to Upgrade Ruins Exploration
  • Quests to Thwart the Last Craftsman's Plot
  • More Character Customization Options
  • NPC Questlines and Relationships

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The early access game contains several hours of content, including the first 7 Craftsman Ranks, 600 items, 65+ collectible punch cards, the first 5 levels of the Ruins, over 100 equipment mods, collectible clothing, etc.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Over the Early Access period, The Last Craftsman will receive substantial updates every few months. Once the game is complete (after the 2nd major update), the price will increase.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I will be monitoring and personally responding to community forum posts and discord conversations with any suggestions or notes about the game. I take a lot of pride in how I interact with players and deeply appreciate the time that they spend with the games I make.”

About This Game






You are a new graduate of the Craftsman's Guild, an organization devoted to ensuring the mechanical prosperity of every town and city in the country. Craftsmen are tasked with repairing machinery, supplying furniture, and generally maintaining the infrastructure of small towns and large cities alike by fulfilling the requests of its citizens.

You've been assigned to Gear Springs, a quaint little village out in the mountains. Normally, this would be a very exciting moment in your life, but you're unsure of how to feel. Gear Springs seems like a nice place, but rumor has it that something terrible happened in the town and the last Craftsman disappeared.

Oh well, it's too late to change your mind now! The train is already charging towards your new home.

Crafting By Components

In The Last Craftsman, each item is more than the sum of its parts. It's also its parts! Every item has tags that define what it is, Lumber is Wood and Fuel, Pillows are very Fluffy, a Cactus is Spiky. These component parts are what really matter in Gear Springs. Some materials will only be available at certain times, which means the way you craft items and progress will be constantly changing!


Omni-tool Mods

As an official Craftsman, you have access to the amazing Omni-tool! The Omni-tool is great on its own and everything, but you can also install modifications to add unique effects. Some mods do simple things like make harvesting materials faster, while others can give you a chance to acquire unique materials or help you learn new crafting recipes. Some modifications even come with upgraded versions for even stronger effects!
