Dear Travellers of the Otherworld!

We have just released patch version 1.3.3. It contains small bug fixes, which you can read at the bottom.

There are also some news about our next project: We are currently having a poll regarding changes to the Drova art style. If you want to get involved check the poll on our Discord.

You can also find news about this in our new YouTube video. As always, the video is in German, but English subtitles are available:

• Fists now trigger the effects of Flowcatcher Talisman and Wind Talisman properly
  
• Automatically reading the letter when looting the Strange Relic in the mine with the missing people
  
• Closing off a path to the destroyed Forest Primeval directly instead after reaching the tavern
  
• Fixed a collider where an unwanted Misty Step was possible
  
• Fixed lots of typos
  
• Fixed some colliders in the world to reduce change to get stuck

Hello Adventurers!

Welcome to another preview of Dustgrave’s Revelation Update, that we plan to release in September 2025!

Today, we’re excited to show you how we’ve completely redesigned the game’s map.

Since Dustgrave’s release, we’ve heard your feedback regarding the map size and its impact on exploration. Originally, we envisioned a vast 3D world where players could freely roam and discover locations filled with wonder. Unfortunately, the initial map proved overly large and somewhat empty, making travel feel slow and, for the lack of better words, boring.

To address that, we have significantly reworked the map, reducing its overall size by 60%. This change dramatically cuts travel times, making exploration smoother and more engaging. We’ve also increased the density of content by introducing new settlements and locations. Additionally, several areas now feature a redesigned geography, ensuring travel and exploration remain fresh and less predictable.

The other notable change the addition of Holdings, small economic hubs like farms, mines, ranches, fisheries, logging camps, inns, and more. Each Settlement now represents an entire region, with every region containing two Holdings, to better represent the local economy and prosperity.

A preview image of the new map, showing the increased density and reduced distances between landmarks.

These Holdings aren’t just decorative, they will be used for dynamic Quests and Events and influence the local economy, impacting each Settlement’s Prosperity level. Holdings also have strategic importance during warfare, with Factions trying to occupy and defend them, reflecting the gradual conquest or reclamation of territories. This addition is part of a broader economic overhaul that will enhance interactions between players, NPCs, and the game’s economy. We’ll explore these aspects further in an upcoming dev diary.

In the next Dev. Diary we will explain in depth how we added the concept of Prosperity Metrics to better track and simulate a Settlement’s economy, and how players will be able to actively influence them by stealing, sabotaging, or donating resources.

Stay tuned for more!

Hello everyone!

!
It was supposed to arrive this weekend, but there is still about 10% of work left to do, and we didn’t want to push it to the beta branch in its current state. We still need to refine the ambiance (lighting, game interface), and test that all mechanics work well (edge cases, etc).

📣 Here’s what will be new:

-Night ferries, with a different clientele, and the addition of two activities: bar and nightclub. Serve drinks on demand, and crank up the sound system so your guests dance until dawn!

-You’ll be able to add your own music to the game! Demonstration below (music not included in the update)


-More precise ferry management throughout the day: manage the flow of ferries you want to host on your island, day and night, from your computer.

-Addition of decoration with 7 new palm trees and rock formations. We started from the observation that the island feels too empty when you arrive in the game for the first time. We decided to improve the environment by adding these palm trees and natural decorations. They can be reused by the player to embellish their island. Since they’re present on the island from the start, they do not bring any hype points.




-For players who are already well advanced in the game and do not wish to start over, you can also find these 7 natural decoration items in the shop as you level up!

-Addition of some SFX

Quick note about employees
The cook and the Harvester will arrive in a future update because we didn’t have time to develop them yet. Indeed, our dilemma as gamedevs is choosing between fixing bugs or pushing ahead with content. Naturally, we are running a bit behind, but this doesn’t change our roadmap plan—just its timing 🙂

☀ Finally, we’re taking a few days off starting tonight, after months of a relentless work pace. We’ll remain connected (from afar) on Discord, but we’re reading you (always)!

Back in the first week of August for the update

See you soon!

Teddy & Marine
