As always, thank you for all your helpful bug reports and feedback so far!
Regarding the following reports and inquiries that we are currently receiving from many people, we would like to provide you with some information and guidance where possible.

[Regarding corrupted save data]
We are currently receiving reports that "save data is not saving" and "save data is corrupted", and we are urgently investigating the cause and making improvements.
We suspect that synchronization with the Steam Cloud system may be the cause of this problem, so we have temporarily changed the settings so that synchronization with the Steam Cloud is not performed.
We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, but please understand.
In addition, we are gradually incorporating mitigation measures for this bug, so please give us a bit more time to fully resolve this issue.

[Regarding becoming stuck on terrain]
Currently, we have received reports characters becoming stuck and unable to move due to getting stuck in the terrain.
If you encounter this problem, we have prepared a "Return to the starting point" button in the Esc menu.
Based on the reports we received, we are working on correcting locations where characters are frequently becoming stuck due to the terrain, so if you encounter it, please try this workaround.

[About bugs caused by MODs]
Some bug reports and issues we have received reports on appear to have been caused by mods.
Craftopia has greatly changed and the internal specifications have been drastically altered due to seamless updates.
For this reason, there are mods that may have worked normally in the old Craftopia, but do not work properly after the seamless update, and as a result cause problems.
If this is the case for you then we recommend unsubscribing from all mods.
Since mods are made by volunteers on the Steam workshop, it is difficult for us to respond to bug reports related to mods. You may have to wait for the mod itself to be updated or the mod may not be compatible anymore. We hope that you understand.

[About verifying game files]
We have confirmed that some problems can be improved by verifying your game files on Steam.
You can do this from your game properties on Steam by right-clicking the game then goi to: “Properties" > "Local files" > "Verify integrity of game files".
We apologize for the inconvenience, but please try this first if you are experiencing any issues.

We are doing our best to respond to other bugs and feedback as soon as possible, and we will continue to make improvements.
Thank you for your continued support of Craftopia.

Hello everyone,

After a long time waiting we finally were able to release the seamless update and we have been enjoying reading about your adventurers in the new Craftopia.

However, we are keenly aware that this update has brought its fair share of problems and we want to assure you that the team is doing everything they can to resolve these issues as soon as possible.
There are some sleepless nights ahead but we want to make Craftopia a game that you can enjoy for a long time.

Among the issues with the update, we'd like to briefly update you on some of the serious ones:

1: GPU/CPU issues:
We are aware that some users are experiencing problems with high CPU usage and GPUs running hot. We really appreciate all the bug reports you sent in and the information you provided about this issue.
In the first hotfix, we fixed an issue that was causing high GPU and CPU usage in the main menu. We've identified some other factors that may still be causing issues in-game and we are hoping to have them fixed in an upcoming update.
We understand that this is a priority and we are doing what we can to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

2: Japanese text in the English version and mistranslations:
Due to a bug with our localization system, several instances of text defaulted to the Japanese version despite the game being set to the English version. We apologize for this and are doing our utmost to correct this as fast as we can.
Also, due to the large amount of text in Craftopia, there are also some translations that may appear unusual or difficult to read. This is an ongoing effort and we will continue to work to correct these.

3: Multiplayer connectivity issues:
The decision to not release the dedicated server alongside the update was a difficult one to make but unfortunately, it just wasn't ready in time. We know many players have been experiencing issues connecting to multiplayer p2p games and we are looking into measures we can take to mitigate these problems. Often these issues are a result of firewalls or ports but we are exploring options to ease these problems on our end.

There are more bugs and issues that we are aware of and we sincerely thank everyone for their bug reports and encourage you to continue sending us this info.

We will be rolling out more fixes and patches so please keep an eye out for those.
Of course, we are also working on new content, new areas and new mechanics as the world of Craftopia will continue to grow! Please look forward to these updates and check out the roadmap we recently posted.
We have big plans for Craftopia and we are looking forward to sharing them with you all.

Everyone here will keep working hard and as always, we thank you for your continued support.

Dear players, thank you for your patience!
We are thrilled to announce that Craftopia has just released the highly anticipated Seamless World Update today!

Experience a completely transformed Craftopia, born anew after two years of additional development. Explore a vast and brand-new world, engage in revamped combat with new techniques, conquer reworked dungeons, and enjoy the convenience of new automated facilities such as Pipelines. We invite you to enjoy the delights of Craftopia's evolution!
(For those interested in transferring your progress from the old Craftopia, please refer to the following instructions.)



But that's not all! We have more exciting updates planned for the future. In July, we'll be releasing elements that narrowly missed the Seamless World update, such as the "Brigandine Valley" and new underground cave areas. Additionally, many features that we have been planning for a long time will be included in a major content update to be released in August!



Craftopia remains dedicated to advancing towards its official release, and we eagerly anticipate your continued support!

The "Seamless World Update" stands as our biggest update yet. It introduces an abundance of new content and mechanics. However, you may still find some bugs and balancing issues. Additionally, certain craft elements from the old Craftopia may not yet be available.

Please rest assured, we plan to address these points with the help of your feedback, by way of regular updates throughout the month of July. We kindly thank you for your patience and understanding.

Craftopia is an ever-evolving project, and we sincerely hope to co-create this game with all of you. Please feel free to share your feedback on Discord and other channels!

Now, let us delve into the exciting new features:

A Completely New Seamless World
Bid farewell to the old islands as we present a striking new map, brimming with interconnected biomes that can be traversed seamlessly. Whether you embark on your adventure alone or alongside friends in multiplayer, Craftopia now offers a more enjoyable and comfortable gaming experience.



Revamped Combat System: "Shield Break" and "Power Attack"
Unleash a precisely timed "Power Attack" to deplete a large chunk of the enemy's shield gauge, and gain a crucial advantage in battle. By keeping a watchful eye on the shield gauge, you can engage in strategic gameplay, resulting in deeper and more satisfying combat encounters.



Introducing the "Pipeline" and Enhanced Craft Automation
Say hello to new crafting machines and facilities, empowering you to efficiently produce a greater number of items than ever before.



Completely Revamped Dungeons
Prepare yourself for a complete overhaul of the dungeons. Experience new puzzles, mechanics, and challenges as you venture into these redesigned realms. Utilize your crafting skills to overcome the obstacles that await!



That's not all—various other elements have been added to enhance the gameplay experience.

Furthermore, let us offer a sneak peek at what's planned for July! Discover "caves" scattered throughout the world, leading to underground passages filled with valuable rewards.



In addition to that, our July update will introduce new areas and gradually unlock some craft elements from the old Craftopia.

After approximately three years since Craftopia's Early Access release, we believe we are getting closer to the Craftopia we envisioned from the start. While there is still work to be done, we are steadily progressing step by step. We hope to shape the best game possible alongside our incredible community!

Thank you for your unwavering support!
