Hop in and show us your Sandbox Mode mastery!
Get creative, have fun, and build something that will surprise the judges!

We had some serious fun!
That contest was something else though, I have to admit that we felt like this theme would be very problematic to design around. You guys outdid yourselves with surprising ideas and wonderfully crafted houses!
The judging process was a bit prolonged, as we had to not only consider the visuals but actually play through the projects to understand what we're looking at. It's insane to see this kind of creativity level

Congrats to not only the winners, but to everyone who attempted to work with such an unusual theme:


We present the winning projects in no particular order this time:

- Resistance is Futile by Tari43
We loved to see the usage of our new keys mechanic. It was a lot of fun to unravel the secrets of the mysterious cube! It was a bit tricky, interesting, and visually pleasing. Great job!

- Land of the Lotus Eaters by WPWW
Dreamy! The visuals of this project capture the feeling of a dream so well! The usage of various mechanics required to progress is impressive! Make sure to look at your quests when attempting this one!

- House of the Radiator by Super_Kupo
So funny! Feels like a pun on a pun. Whoever goes through this project joins the radiator cult automatically! So gooood!

- Cartoon - Coloring Book by Sph1nxy
Oh my! So lovely, so unique, we've never seen something like it. The house is not big, but you can spend a long time admiring all the little black and white details. Incredible!

- A crocodiles tale by RoooseGarden
Mr and Mrs Croc invited us to their wedding, and it was a blast! Surprising visuals, funny challenges, lots of hard work! We loved it!

I’ve decided to pull Bigfoot Life out of the Steam Next Fest on June 9th.

This was a hard decision, but it ultimately came down to putting my health over the game. You can only enter a Steam Next Fest one time. This should usually be done right before your game is released. This puts a lot of pressure and stress on me to get the game done as soon as possible.

I made a post a few months ago about me and my health but I will post a little more about it here in case you missed it so you can understand my decision better. My name is Wes and besides creating solo games for Planet 47 Games, I also create games with my brothers under Abrams Studios LLC. We have created games like Morels: The Hunt 1 and 2 as well as Morels: Homestead for the Quest VR headset.

After spending the last couple years battling a rare disease called VEXAS that also led to me having MDS (Blood Cancer), I had to get a bone marrow transplant. I officially had the transplant done in January at the NIH (National Institutes of Health) in Maryland. My family and I had to move out to Maryland to have the transplant done. We just got back from Maryland to our home in Indiana a couple of weeks ago. I just got the call that the UAB1 test came back, and I no longer have VEXAS. This is the best news. It is still a long road to full recovery but the is such great news. I still have to wait until July when I go back for my follow up and have a bone marrow biopsy done to see if the Blood Cancer is gone but the doctors are very confident that it is gone as well. This journey has been a rollercoaster of emotions. I am so thankful for my donor who has blessed me with a second chance at life. Even through these difficult times God has blessed us in so many ways. We are very thankful.

I’m pulling Bigfoot Life out of Next Fest because since I got back all my time has been focused on the game and getting everything ready for that, along with trying to get the full game done so I can release it soon. I’ve started to get GVHD (Graft Versus Host Disease), and the doctors believe it could be caused from stress. They recommend that I take a step back from the game and focus more on my health.


Not really much will change. The demo will remain up for anyone to play and give feedback on it. I will still be working on the full game. It is still possible the full game could still be released soon without being in any kind of Steam Fest. Not being in this upcoming Next Fest takes away that pressure that I have to release the game soon. Now I have the freedom to also look into options to help me finish the game with the least amount of stress on me as possible.

Thank you for all the support and your understanding.

Dear Pixelians! 👋

This patch brings a fresh wave of quality-of-life improvements, new content, and community-requested features to make your experience smoother, more fun, and even more immersive.

Let’s dive into what’s new! 🚀





This update introduces a brand-new feature: Storage Inventory 📦

You’ll be able to access it straight from the Furnishing Window while at home, and it’s shared between all of your properties. If you miss your rent and get evicted, or decide to sell your property without including furniture, all your items will be safely transferred to your Storage Inventory.

I’ve also added a new option that lets you manually send any of your furniture to your Storage Inventory whenever you’d like.

Say goodbye to losing your hard-earned furniture during tough times in Pixelia! 🏡




Ever found yourself circling Pixelia over and over, just trying to track down that one elusive Pixelian for a quest? Or maybe you've resorted to waiting outside their home like a detective on a stakeout? Finding the right person at the right time hasn’t always been easy in earlier versions.

With our new NPC Waypoint System, that hassle is finally a thing of the past! 🗺️



You can now place a waypoint on any NPC, allowing you to instantly locate them on the map and track them in real-time. Whether you're on a mission, handing in a task, or just looking to say hi, finding the right Pixelian is now as easy as pie.

No more hide-and-seek! ✨




Previously, you had to wait until your rental period expired, and often faced eviction, before you could buy a rented home. And even worse, when you got evicted, your ruthless landlord would sell off your furniture to cover costs. This meant that buying your rented home involved a lot of hassle and difficulties.

Now, with this new feature, you can purchase your rented property at any time, without waiting for the lease to end or dealing with eviction hassles!

You can purchase your rented property through the Housing menu or by visiting the Real Estate Office.




This quest now features a handy option to highlight the specific home you need to lockpick and break into to access the safe, making your mission clearer and easier to complete.




This isn’t a new feature, but we didn’t communicate it clearly before, which was our oversight. You’ve always been able to skip dialogue, but since we didn’t mention it, many in our community were unaware.

To fix this, we’ve now added a visual hint to let you know you can skip and don’t have to wait for any Pixelian during conversations.


We understand how frustrating it can be to lose your progress due to corrupted save files when a crash occurs during manual or auto-saving. Previously, interruptions during the save process could damage your save data, causing you to lose your game progress.

To prevent this, we’ve implemented an additional safety measure.

Now, when you save your game, the original save file remains untouched. The game first creates a temporary copy of your save file, writes the new data onto that copy, and only replaces the original file once the process completes successfully. This way, if a crash or interruption happens during saving, your original save will stay intact, protected and untouched.

• Hacking Bank Accounts and Stealing Data on computers now takes much less time.
  
  
• If your hacking attempt fails, the Crime UI will appear to display the amount of Crime Points you've gained.
  
  
• Controller support has been added for the Butcher Job.

• To view concert offers from your Music Band manager, you needed 5 Composed Music. However, if you had a Music Album containing 10 Composed Music, the game didn’t correctly recognize that this requirement was met. This issue is fixed now.
  
  
• Successful government hacking actions on the computer now count correctly toward the "Mastermind Criminal" dream goal.
  
  
• Resolved a bug where the "Write Book" mini-game window remained open if your character experienced a bladder accident during the book writing process.
  
  
• Fixed the Trait Task "Eat 3 Seafood" so that eating Cooked Salmon now counts properly.
  
  
• Relationship values will no longer drop below -100 when attacking someone.
  
  
• Corrected the price range for the product "Solar Bloom" in the Cosmetics Store.
  
  
• Corrected the incorrect furniture category title for beds in the Furnishing Menu.

And there’s more news! If everything goes smoothly, the upcoming update will wrap up the long-awaited revamp of the notorious Guitar Minigame. Following that, we’ll start rolling out options to turn mini-games on or off.
