The v0.5.12 hotfix addresses several issues in the game.

• Fixed a rare scenario where loading a saved game could cause the game to crash within a few minutes due to a livestock bug.
  
• Fixed a bug where fire visuals were missing when the tannery, weaponsmith, or armorsmith buildings caught fire.
  
• Fixed a bug where the tannery’s negative land value impact was not being displayed.

I’m getting close to finishing the next content update. However, I didn’t want to wait a few more days due to concerns over the loading crash issue, so I decided to release this hotfix. I expect to release a new content update, along with a few improvements, within the next few days.

Enjoy the game!

We see your prerelease coverage of the game on YouTube and thought we would share some of it in today's announcement.
Hopefully, you all will enjoy the game as much as we love working on it :)

Hello there traveler!
I know you've been awaiting a new devlog for quite some time, but fear not, your wait has ended!

It's been a long journey but the alpha is finally in the hands of Discord members. If you haven't joined the Discord, this is probably the best time. You'll be able to grab a key and check out the game today!

Launching the alpha revealed some very interesting facts - there was no way to actually figure out the game. I went by popular internet opinion and didn't add a tutorial since for an alpha that makes less sense (it'll be obsolete soon, etc.), This resulted in very few people knowing how to play the game. One of the first things I therefore had to address was having the game be more intuitive & having a 'Challenge' section which acts as a quick tutorial into how to move around the map, how to trade & build businesses. Moving forward, I'll have to look into adding a kickass tutorial to explain all the game has to offer.

Here's the happy merchant I made for the challenges. A youtuber called him 'little pirate dude' which I thought was funny.



Finally, after more than 3 weeks of curating music & sounds, the game now has an ambiance! There's chill medieval music in the background & cities have workers hammering away while dogs bark by the docks. Overall I feel it ads a lot of atmosphere to the environment. It's not perfect, but it's getting there. Adding sounds meant I also needed to add the settings to control them, so I went the extra mile and also added in controls & graphics settings. My french friends should also now be able to play using Azerty keyboards while multi-monitor folks should now be able to move the game around to their heart's content!



I've added so many little bits and bobs that it would be hard to write all of them here! I'll probably make some more detailed devlogs soon to get you up to speed with everything. Alpha testing has been great & provided me with incredible feedback on so many things that were either not clear, not working or just not at the right level of quality. I've already addressed a ton of them & more will soon hit the alpha!



I've started work on economy v3 - a big overhaul that'll make prices more intuitive as well as offer more replayability between games. After that I'm moving into reputation v1 & mayors. I'll probably wrap the session off with visuals v3 - a new graphical update - before the beta release in December.

Thanks for checking out the devlog! Remember to play the alpha if you haven't already (grab a key in discord https://discord.gg/7sKhteQv4w) and until next time, happy trading!

Lexy.

Hey mates! This content update comes with a new frozen robot, more flexibility for Variables and vital QoL improvements:

• Added functional 'Ctrl + Z' and 'Ctrl + Shift + Z' keyboard shortcuts! Small step for game development, huge leap for QoL: this was one of the most frequently requested features from the community, and it's finally here!
  
• Added another frozen CraftoMate with premade code: it's found near the Sulfur source and it will help you deal with those annoying rock piles that are blocking the way
  
• Added 'any object' and 'nothing' categories to Object categories (e.g. in Variables): you can now make a bot check whether its' hands are empty, whether a selected tile contains Objects, etc.
  
• Added 'fog of war' to the wiki, that conceals Objects not yet discovered by the player
  
• Bug fixes

See you in a couple of weeks, when the next update rolls out!

And if you haven't done it already, please don't forget to add Craftomation 101 to your wishlist, it is an important marker to us, that brings the game's release closer:
