Trove - BulldogFasti


Long ago, the Sun Goddess’ light shone so brightly that it hid many of her treasures from Q’bthulhu’s dark influence. Following the sundering of Trove, her powers waned, and though it has taken over a thousand years, the once-hidden planet of Geode was discovered by the forces of shadow.

Geodians looked to the Builder for a place where they could be safe from the Shadow and discovered a massive, ancient tool of creation that the Builder left behind. A powerful aura of light magic surrounded the Builder’s tool, allowing the Geodians to create a barrier protecting them from the Shadow.

In this Sanctuary, you’ll find denizens of Geode great and small. Explore the Geodian Hub and meet the Boulders and Pebbles.

Boulders
Their massive size can be very intimidating but they are committed to peaceful harmony in their world. These gentle giants exemplify strength in its truest, purest form.



Pebbles
What these tiny Geodians lack in mass they make up for in ingenuity. Pebbles tend to be historians, architects, and engineers. They care deeply about understanding their world and caring for all the creatures in it.



These Geodians sought to drive out the forces of shadow, therefore many have joined the Sunseekers (an ancient sect of warriors who have remained vigilant against the shadow even as they sought peace). The Sunseekers have carried on the tales of the Sun Goddess from the days of the Sundering, and recognize the Shadow as being the work of Q’bthulhu. They created the Sunseeker Tower in the Geodian sanctuary in an effort to reach out to the Sun Goddess.



The Sun Goddess answered the Sunseekers’ pleas by illuminating the planet of Trove in the night sky. The Sunseekers crafted a small ship to carry an emissary to Trove. The powerful magic of the Trovian Atlas revealed a mysterious world to the residents of Trove but they were blissfully ignorant of what was to come.

All that is about to change as Sunseeker Rowan will soon arrive on Trove. With his arrival comes a call to all Trovians to gather resources and help build a vessel to carry brave adventurers to this mysterious new world. Rowan, his fellow Sunseeekers, as well as the pebbles & boulders will be powerful allies for Trovians seeking all-new adventures!

Update 1 - We've spotted the likely cause and are working on a fix for this issue. In the meantime, you can use the following workaround to get back into Trove right away:

1. Install Glyph from this link: http://download.dyn.triongames.com/GlyphInstall-9999-1001.exe
2. Copy Glyph from where you installed it to the file path of the Steam installation. The default location is C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Trove
3. Launch Trove again from Steam

Hey all,

Our team is working to address the issue preventing players on Steam from launching our games due to a missing Glyph files error.

This is their top priority and we'll post updates in this message as they come in.

Thank you for your patience!

Trove – Geode is a seismic shift in gameplay that gives you new ways to experience our voxelated multiverse. Your mission on this long-hidden world is to gather up resources, upgrade advanced Geodian tech, and prepare for the inevitable battle ahead.

Spelunking
The forces of shadow have overwhelmed the peaceful Geodians who now find themselves hidden away in their last refuge on Geode. With the spread of evil across the surface of the world it’s time to dig deep, literally.



A major element of Geode at launch will be cave exploration. This is a very different world with its own rules to follow and a harsh environment that Trovians have trouble enduring. The denizens of Geode provide their visitors with the tools to survive the harsh elements – modules.

Modules
These are uniquely Geodian items with specialized abilities that help you survive in the incredible underground pressure of the caves. As you explore and gather resources you’ll be able to upgrade your modules to make yourself more powerful than ever.

These upgrades are vital to surviving the deepest caverns on Geode and reaping the most powerful resources we’ve ever seen.

  • Geodian Acclimation System (GAS) – Allows Trovians to survive in the caves of Geode as they explore this newly discovered world. Can be upgraded to enable exploring the deepest caves in pursuit of the greatest rewards.
  • N-Charge – An upgradable battery pack that powers Geodian tech.
  • Omni-Tool – A powerful area of effect (AoE) tool that can be used to mine resources on Geode. Aim the omni-tool at the corners of resources to mine multiple blocks simultaneously.
  • Climbing Claw – A grappling hook used to traverse hard to reach areas of Geodian caves.
  • Rocket Boots – Jetpacks for your feet! Allows you to fly around the caves and gather hard to reach resources.
  • Barrier Generator blocks incoming projectiles from turrets, as well as buffing your movement speed
  • Thumper reveals hidden ore and crystals
  • Pathpainter - Place blocks that increase movement speed and jump for you and other players that walk over them. Great for teamwork and helpful to mark areas of caves already explored!

Companions
Geode is home to a vast array of life forms that are new to Troviankind.

Discover them on your travels and raise them to be your trusted allies in the fight against the forces of shadow.

Critters
As you travel the caves of Geode collecting resources you’ll also run into adorable little critters that may need your help. If you’re approached by a hungry creature you’ll want to feed it, if the critter is cold you’ll warm it up by providing it with a blanket, and if it’s sick you’ll want to take the time to heal it.



If you happen upon a critter that is already in a good mood you may want to take some time to play with it to unlock rewards. How does one play with a happy critter you ask? Well, that’s a story for another day.

Keep an eye out for future blogs as we do a deeper dive into the all-new systems coming with Trove – Geode!

Luxion of the Golden Hoard is a gorgeous dragon who returns to the Hub twice a month to trade goods for Dragon Coins. You'll find Luxion near the Dragon Crucible starting on June 1. Luxion will vanish at 4AM PDT (11AM GMT) on June 4, so don't delay!

Just a couple of the items Luxion is offering up on this next visit are:
  • Jiggling Jelled Sauce mount
  • Techno Tortoise mount
Luxion's loot is a way for players who missed limited time items in the past to pick them up directly. You'll also find brand new items at a higher Dragon Coin price periodically. Items will repeat eventually, but it may take a while for a specific piece of loot to return so be sure to check back on every visit!

Luxion's visits will generally arrive just before a weekend in the start and middle of each month, disappearing at 4AM PDT (11AM GMT) on Sunday.

Hey all,

We're bringing Trove offline on Tuesday at 7AM PDT (2PM UTC) for maintenance. No patch with this maintenance, but it will include Windows updates which means the downtime may take up to 3 hours.

As each platform is finished we'll bring them back online.

Thanks!

Our next free expansion is worlds apart from anything you’ve ever experienced in Trove. Heed the call to interplanetary adventure and blast off to Trove – Geode on June 26, 2018!

Travel to a newly discovered world called Geode. This formerly pristine planet is under siege by the invading forces of Q‘bthulhu’s shadow army. They seek to lay claim to Geode's rich resources.



On Geode you’ll face all-new challenges adapting to this alien world and its peace-loving denizens. With their power unchecked, Q‘bthulhu's forces have turned the vast majority of Geode into a deadly wasteland.

You’ll need to craft and upgrade Geodian technology to protect against the elements as you explore the vast cavernous underground of the planet, gathering untapped resources in preparation for the war that’s on the horizon.





To respect the peaceful Geodian customs you’ll need to put all new skills to the test as you work to do something no Trovian has done before – handle your business non-violently.



In addition to a whole new world of possibilities, Trove – Geode also marks the addition of Trove Bomber Royale mode! This very Trovey take on the battle royale genre is another major step forward in Trove’s evolution.

Want to help us test out this new evolution of Trove? The PTS is slated to open up on Friday, May 18th!

Take one giant leap for Troviankind this summer with the ultimate game changer: Trove – Geode!
