The Collectables Update (Date: 2023-04-12)[]

Turns out Thing is quite the collector, and now its collection can be yours. These shiny new figurines — which feature your favorite Creativerse mobs like Pigsy, Leafi, Chizzard, Rambeau, Rockster, Keepa, and more — will look great in your builds! So if you're feeling adventurous, head down to the Corruption Layer and fight or tame some Things to start collecting. It won't be easy but it will be worth it.


In addition, we have some new items and a bunch of improvements, including a big overhaul to loot from treasure chests, which are now way more rewarding. We've added the ability to customize the length of timers in advanced world options, so now you can process and forge everything in 1 second if you like. There’s several new chat commands that add some useful tinkering abilities. And more!

This update also removes the ability to migrate your old worlds (...end of an era). Until next time...stay creative!

Creativerse: The Definitive Edition Update (Date: 2022-12-06)[]

At long last, The Definitive Edition of Creativerse is here!

This update is the culmination of 8 years of development and everything our players love about the game, all in a new pay-once-play-forever package. As we explained earlier this fall, we decided to pivot away from free-to-play in this new version that removes the Playful-hosted elements and puts the entire game into your hands.

This change allowed us to make things vastly more customizable for players. Want a world with infinite stamina, a 1 second timer on all processor materials, one-hit kills on all mobs, and holiday events turned on year-round? Done. Want under-the-hood options for managing a server, its players, and backups? You got it. In fact, if this pivot proves successful, we could add support for even wilder stuff like mods. And while multiplayer will now be up to players to host, there will still be a list of public worlds to join.

On top of this, we've added a ton of new content and improvements, overhauled the core progression loop, and added a new mailbox tool for sending messages to players in other worlds. There's also a bunch of new tools for managing your world and its players, including a separate web admin interface with a lot of neat extras.

Here are 2 important details you should know:

1. If you purchased either DLC or bought coins, this is a free update!

2. For the next 90 days, you'll be able to migrate all of your worlds from our servers. You can also migrate any worlds other players have whitelisted for download. Please download your worlds asap and back them up, as we won't be able to recover them once the deadline has passed!

Hotfix for Update 2.63.11 (Date: 2020-02-21)[]

New Features and Content:

  • All Recipe Packs are currently for free for players who bought the Pro DLC. This is also the reason why "Pro" players can find nearly all of the Store-exclusive blocks in their Creator Mode inventory

Bug Fixes:

  • Easels don't spawn Robert anymore. If you see a giant snake-like artifact on your game world, please remove all Easels that you have placed and relog (!) before placing them again
  • Fallen Leaves, Red Mushrooms and Brown Mushrooms can be taken from the Creator Mode inventory and then placed directly into the game world
  • filled storage chests cannot be pulled anymore when in Creator Mode
  • game worlds should load faster, but will still inevitably load slower than before the large update R65 (officially called R63) (mainly due to PostProcessing)
  • flickering of display containers and activation bugs of display containers were fixed
  • Premium section/category is back in the "All" TAB of the crafting menu
  • brought back Golden Sword, Poinsettias, all the Spooky items, Figured Obsidian Wall and other blocks/objects that were in the "Premium" section/category of the crafting menu
  • F2P players won't find their all-items-selection window in Creator Mode empty anymore
  • F2P players can now properly paint, except when the painting key is costumized in the options - in this case, copying paint will activate crouch/safe walk instead (known bug). Bug can be avoided if you can use Creator Mode - while in Creator Mode, copying paint works
  • Fallen Leaves icons fixed
  • some of the mistakenly unlocked recipes are locked again in the crafting menu. Please note that a few Store-bought recipes are still unlocked even though you haven't bought the according bundles, this will be fixed in an upcoming patch
  • Ore Nodes that have been removed in Creator Mode should not re-appear again

Known Bugs:

  • F2P players might still find too many items right now in their all-item selection window in Creator Mode and also unlocked in their crafting menu
  • Better do not press "ESC" while using the camera drone, this might still be able to crash the game
  • Industrial LEDs and LED Tree Blocks ignore the colors that are set/defined in their wiring options windows. On the other hand, they can be painted
  • standard LED blocks cannot be painted (but can be colored by defining their color in their wiring options windows)

  • The colors that you set/define in the wiring option windows of Candy Skull Banners and Candy Skull Statues will be "overwritten" if you paint them though, which is the expected correct behaviour
  • Some lamps as well as Candy Skull Banners appear bright now even when deactivated / turned off
  • A few lamps do not spend light anymore when painted. However, please note that the light of most lamps will inevitably be dimmer when the lights of lamps are being painted. Due to new PostProcessing settings, the light of Flashlights is now also dimmer
  • Blueprint override might not work anymore, especially if you customize your keys
  • "Fresh start" still doesn't work

Update R63 - Creativity: Evolved (Date: 2020-02-19)[]

2) Pro members now get discounts on everything in the Store. In fact, many of the premium recipe blocks are currently FREE for Pro members for a limited time!

New Features and Content:

Creative Worlds

  • Flat worlds: At world creation, choose “Flat Grass” or “Flat Sand” in the template drop down for a blank canvas experience. You can now also select one of the template game worlds RW1 - RW8 directly.
  • Turn your "Pro" game world into a Creative World by pressing "ESC" and selecting "Edit World" below your game world picture. In this window, search for "Creative Mode Permission" on the right side. Click the box that says "No Creative Mode" and select the Creative Mode that you prefer

  • While in Creator Mode...
    • Your inventory and “adventure” quickbar are replaced by an all-item selection menu and a “creative” quickbar
    • You cannot equip a Weapon in Creator Mode; however Creatures will ignore you anyways in this Mode regardless of world settings. Your player character is immortal while Creator Mode is enabled
    • Toggle back to “Survival” Mode to do things like moving your Touchstone, unequipping equipment, removing filled storage/display containers or attacking Creatures
    • World owners can decide whether to grant Creator Mode to all players, specific players, or tie its access to a permissions level (e.g. world admins only)
    • Everyone who is allowed to use Creator Mode by the World Owner can enable and disable it independently. You cannot alter anything on other players' claims in Creator Mode though (but only on your own claims), no matter your claim permissions
    • You can move items from the Creator Mode all-item selection window into storage containers and take them out in order to use them after disabling Creator Mode. Everyone has their own all-item selection window with an assortment of items depending on their recipe "collection" unlocked in their crafting menu so far
    • You can "pull" and such remove all blocks and objects in Creator Mode. This includes Ore Nodes and filled Storage Containers and Display Containers - please note that you will not "receive" them, they will be gone instead. You cannot remove End of the World blocks and (as mentioned above), you cannot remove or place anything within other players' claims when in Creator Mode
    • Careful: if you remove any part of your equipment while in Creator Mode, this equipment (Armor, Weapon, Tool) will simply vanish!
    • Flying a Glider in Creator Mode doesn't use up Stamina
    • By tapping your "Jump" key twice (default key: Space) you can walk in the air (Hover Mode). This is not just a camera setting. Type "Jump" twice to toggle back
    • Tapping your "Safe Walk" (Crouch, default key "c") key while pointing at any block, object or liquid that you can obtain in Creator Mode will put 999 units of this item into your quickbar, except for a few that will only grant you 1 item (Adventure Gate, Checkpoint)
    • You can still use the Safe Walk by toggling it on before you enable Creator Mode (make sure to set Safe Walk to toggleable in your Settings in order to make this work!)
    • Not a Pro member? You can still access the Creator Mode features by playing in someone else’s Creative World as long as the World Owner grants you Creator Mode permission

Paintable Blocks

  • Change the color of nearly every block, object and liquid that can be placed in the world, including lights and smoke, seeds of crops and growable mushrooms, grown crops and player-grown mushrooms (these will revert into seeds at first, but will then grow into colored crops/shrooms)
  • Press “.” (customizable key) to open swatch builder (Painting/Color Palette window). Build customized swatches, with the option to designate a primary and secondary color
  • The thin sliders/bars to the left and right of the Swatch selection block will define the glow of your primary and secondary paint. Drag the dots inside the sliders with your left mouse button
  • Bottom right "color" is named "white", but it's actually "transparent"
  • Add your swatches to the paint quickbar to quickly switch between colors while playing (left mouse drag)
  • In the game world, hold left “Ctrl” (customizable key) to see your painting quickbar
  • With a swatch selected, blocks/objects/liquids will be painted as you place them; or you can hold left “Ctrl” (customizable in your keysettings options) and left mouse click to paint already placed or found blocks/objects/liquids
  • You can copy colors of already painted blocks/objects/liquids by holding left “Ctrl” and tapping your "crouch/safe walk" key (default "c", customizable) while pointing your cursor at any block/object/liquid
  • Click your right mouse button in order to undo the painting of a painted block/object/liquid (you cannot remove the colors of blocks, objects or liquids that have not been painted with the painting feature though)
  • You can switch the secondary and primary color by holding left “Ctrl” and tapping the "Show Wiring" key (customizable)
  • You can either "copy" the "unpainted" setting of a non-painted block/object/liquid or hold left “Ctrl” and tap the "Codex" key (customizable) in order to clear the Swatch
  • Blueprint capture blocks will retain your custom paint settings when you capture your colored builds
  • You can now select paint in your Blueprint customization. Old Blueprints can only be painted as a whole. For Blueprints made after February 19th 2020, you can set the colors for every block type used in the Blueprint individually. When building the Blueprint, the blocks will be colored accordingly when placed
  • Please note that dark blocks/objects cannot be painted bright white or any other bright color, they will appear a little greyed instead

  • Slow world loading is being addressed by the devs right now and should be a lot faster in the next build
  • Flickering of display containers can cause a severe FPS-drop (lag) when you're close to the containers. This too is already in revision right now
  • The loud default colors of the game world are a bit over the top and will be dulled (one day we'll get a gamma/color saturation setting in the graphic options so we can choose for ourselves)
  • Display containers can be bugged, especially if you activate them after using any storage container. Might also be related to incomplete loading of chunks. When activating display containers, their windows might have the wrong description and no slots showing up. After this bug happens, no storage container or display container might react to opening attempts. Relogging can fix this - better activate the display containers right away before using storage containers
  • The Premium section/category is gone from the "All" TAB of the crafting menu. Most premium blocks can now only be found in the "build" TAB of the crafting menu
  • Some items are now missing from the crafting menu entirely though, like the Golden Sword, Poinsettias, all the Spooky items, Figured Obsidian Wall and several other blocks/objects that were in the "Premium" section/category of the crafting menu in the "All" TAB before this update R65
  • F2P players will find their all-items-selection window in Creator Mode empty right now (they should be able to access all the natural blocks and freely craftable stuff)
  • F2P players can only use part of the painting feature. The "Modifier1"-key does not react and such does not allow them to color blocks in the game world directly. The painting window can be opened, but only by double-tapping the Painting/Color Palette key (default key: Period). After selecting a color-combination there, any block and object that is placed will be colored accordingly. Colors cannot be removed from painted blocks/objects in the game world, but only by picking the blocks/objects up, disabling the colors (right-click) in the painting window and placing the blocks/objects again. Tapping the Painting/Color Palette key one time only brings up the Painting Info about the blocks/objects that you point your cursor at, which also is not supposed to happen
  • Do not press "ESC" while using the camera drone, this can crash the game
  • Industrial LEDs, LED Tree Blocks and Candy Skull Statues ignore the colors that were set/defined in their wiring option windows for them
  • Candy Skull Banners, LEDs and Galactic LEDs cannot be painted
  • The patterns on Candy Skull Statues and Candy Skull Banners are black instead of colorful
  • Fallen Leaves as items in the all-items selection window of Creator Mode have a missing icon
  • Galactic LEDs have a much paler light now, this is addressed by the devs too
  • Some lamps do not spend light anymore when painted. However, please note that the light of most lamps will dim when the lamps and such their lights are being painted - this is not a bug
  • Some lamps as well as Candy Skull Statues and Candy Skull Banners appear bright now even when deactivated / turned off
  • "Pro" players can find too many items right now in their all-item selection window in Creator Mode
  • Players can also craft rare and store-exclusive blocks without having obtained the according recipes
  • Ore Nodes that have been removed by using Creator Mode will re-appear after relog or after you leave the area and return to it

Christmas Event 2019 - Elfi's Toy Drive returns (Date: 2019-12-03)[]

The annual Christmas event Elfi's Toy Drive is back! It seems that Troggington the Feared Snow Trog has stolen the toys early this year and it is up to you, Creators, to help Elfi take back those presents and save Creaticheer! But things aren't all coal and dreary... There's a merry helping of festive items Elfi has gifted to the community to brighten up your worlds! What are you waiting for? Save the toys!

Features:

Free Store-bundles with Christmas-themed recipes and items as a thank you from Playful:

  • Elfi's Wonderland 2018 recipes and items can be claimed for free in the Creativerse Store for those who just want all the things right away. Grab your Elfi's Wonderland Bundle 2018 while it's available! Yes, the bundle can be claimed several times, not just once. This is not a bug, but intended.

These Recipes do not come in the shape of Recipe pages or Recipe books. Instead, when claiming the Elfi's Wonderland Furniture 2018 Bundle, these account-bound and not shareable Recipes are immediately added to your crafting menu - and from then on should be available on all game worlds, even on those with "Fresh Start" (no common unlockable recipes will carry over from other worlds) enabled.

This bundle can only be claimed once because Costumes are account-bound. Please note that Costumes are not items, but can be found as a selection in your Costumes window instead (on the main game screen, click on "Customize Character" below your player character's feet before entering a game world; or when ingame, click on "Costume" over your character's equipment paper-doll in the inventory).

  • More Reinbeaus spawn all over the game worlds on ice and snow during day and night. They do not drop Small Trog Traps nor Rescued Toys this year though, but the rare Reaudolphs that appear amongst the Reinbeaus still drop Traps, Toys and random Christmas-related goodies, mostly Christmas-themed blocks and objects from 2017
  • The randomly spawning Holiday Gift boxes on Snow and Ice now contain Small Trog Traps in place of Rescued Toys once in a while additionally to their usual content
  • The same event creatures as last year can be tamed, not any more than last year, and yes, the ice spies, snowball targets and ice spy pets are still bugged - since the beginning of 2019 actually

The event Elfi's Toy Drive 2019 ends on Friday January 10th 2020, 10 pm CST.

Halloween Event 2019 - Pumpkiru returns (Date: 2019-10-17)[]

The annual Halloween event Pumpkiru's Candy Campaign is back!

New Items:

These items and their rare Recipes can be traded together with other Halloween-themed items and Costumes from the Pumpkirus by giving them Pumpkiru Candy

Notes:

The Halloween Event will end November 19th (Tuesday) at 12 pm CST.

Update R62 - The Under the Hood Update (Date: 2019-04-19)[]

Updates, Additions, and Tweaks:

  • Major Engine upgrade to Unity 2018
  • Assorted bug fixes related to engine upgrade
  • New graphics quality settings - Ambient Occlusion, Anti Aliasing (off, TAA, FXAA, SMAA) and /pref commands for more detailed setting options)
  • Mud is now craftable using Water and Dirt (recipe unlocks on taking water)
  • Water no longer requires any mining cell to be pulled
  • Max view radius has been increased (from 13 to 16 possible maximum)
  • Lava and Corrupted Water can now be pulled by Diamond Mining Cell (also Super Excavators will scoop up these liquids now, and Super TNT can evaporate them)
  • Hidden Temple Chests and Medieval Chests no longer require Stone mining cell to pull
  • Selection highlight in Action Bar is a little wider and easier to see
  • Gift Boxes (Blue Gift Box, Green Gift Box and Red Gift Box) are rotatable in any direction
  • Pet information window is simultaneously dismissed with its associated pet
  • Lily Pads can now be put in (display) containers
  • Automatic text censoring logic has been improved to try and help reduce the number of false positives, i.e “Grass” ("Magnetite" or "Stalactite" and the like are still considered bad words though)
  • Plowing is now done in only 1,5 seconds instead of 4 seconds (no Badge is required)
  • Corruption meter/scale fills more quickly, also Heat meter/scale
  • Textures of Glowing Mushrooms and Mosaic Moroccan Wall were changed (in an attempt to fix the psychedelic way Glowing Mushrooms looked on display they now look like Brown Mushrooms though, which will be fixed in a near future update)
  • If you want fire to spread, the fire spreading option has to be enabled on both game world and claims (might not be intended though - only claim options should be required for this, since they are supposed to override game world options)
  • Throwable bombs that can transform environment will now respect world options and claim options
  • Goo blots created by smashing green Blocks of Goo, Orange Blocks of Goo, Purple Blocks of Goo, Green Goo Stairs, Orange Goo Stairs, Purple Goo Stairs or any shapes (slabs, columns, slopes, corners) processed from these Goo blocks can now be removed by performing another Gauntlet Smash with at least a Diamond Mining Cell (and the required permission rank on claim and/or game world)

Bug Fixes:

  • Pet bubbles render on top of water correctly (and also in front of other transparent liquids)
  • Glowing Mushrooms are glowing again (and they look different too now)
  • Pets are properly dirty after harvesting (get the soap ready!)
  • New Adventures show up under the New category
  • Fixed a few issues with Pets disappearing (i.e in some instances, pets that were told to “Stay” would either disappear or wind up clumped together)
  • Fixed a few issues related to player names (such as when a user is banned)
  • Decorgeous Door disappears at the same distance as other doors (and Rustic Wood Door too, which was the one type of doors that disappeared at the lowest/nearest distance)
  • Blocky the Snowman is now visible when placed in a container (and looks very cute)
  • Fixed snow caps spreading and showing up inconsistently (how rude!)
  • Fixed issues related to recipes not carrying over between worlds properly (which has caused a new bug: now ALL recipes are unlocked on game worlds with the option "recipes don't carry over" ("fresh start") enabled, meaning that this "Pro" option is now inadvertently disabled on all game worlds)
  • (note: unfortunately not fixed) Magic Snow Globe should no longer create snow when placed in displays (another note: even worse, Magic Snow Globes refuse to be properly deactivated now)
  • Fixed an issue that prevented purchase of block kits for a moss block-customized blueprint (please note that moss-covered weepwood and mossy weepwood logs still cannot be captured, since they look different from moss blocks that are in actual fact moss-covered white ashenwood blocks)
  • All firework types give off sound effects
  • Sleeping in a Bed for the first time no longer triggers a “New Area Discovered” message / reveals a grid on the map
  • Mobs can now be attacked while they are in a Teleporter
  • Customazing Curtains no longer create error blocks around them
  • Frozen Container no longer mysteriously hides itself after leaving and returning to an area (on the other hand, these containers are really, really bright now, it's hard to spot what's inside)
  • /setspawn should work again
  • @ and other symbols can now be correctly used in text fields regardless of the keyboard layout
  • Safe walk now prevents players from walking off slopes
  • Player preferences are now tied to your Steam account instead of the client
  • Temperature fix: full blocks can be heated by hot rocks/objects underneath again (Snow Blowers on the other hand are "weaker" than before. In order to be of use on the Lava layer, you'll have to place a Slab over a Snow Blower and stand on it)

From Jeremy: "Small easter egg, when you save your costume customization in the menu, a high res screen of your character is saved to C:\Users\your user\AppData\LocalLow\PlayfulCorp\Creativerse\avatar

(Another easter egg: when in "ViewMode", you can now zoom in by pressing Ctrl & rolling the mouse wheel. Also: did you try changing any of your equipment while flying a glider, like any piece of armor, gauntlet, tool or weapon? And did you try changing into ViewMode afterwards?)

QB is so excited to be your new mentor, advisor, and very best Creati-friend. There’s more QB fun to come, but for now QB will be your guide to the...

  • To be fair to new players, we’re going to start calling Creativerse a “live open beta” until we’re finished adding all the new stuff we have planned. This label won’t change anything about your play experience or how we add content the game; it’s simply a way to convey to our newest players how much new stuff is still coming along the pipeline and that the game is far from finished.

Update R49 - The Column Craze (Date: 2017-11-15)[]

Improvements

Creativerse is now built using the 64-bit Unity platform

  • This will improve stability and reduce crashing.

Various performance improvements

  • Improved occlusion culling
  • Improved sound loading
  • Reduced entity unloading cost

Other minor improvements

  • Elevation indicator added to death statue compass UI element
  • Creativerse sprites added to the Arc Sign!

We've been monitoring reports of excessive crashing over the last couple releases, and we're working actively to reduce crashing and improve the gameplay experience.

A very small subset of our players are currently running 32-bit versions Windows, which will cease to be supported when Creativerse becomes 64-bit. We're announcing this change now so everyone has plenty of time to make sure they're 64-bit compatible. We'll absolutely post again with a more definite timeframe as we get closer to making the switch to 64-bit.

This update also contains the start of a better experience for new players. Our goal is to strike a balance between being mysterious enough that there’s still plenty of discovery, while also gently encouraging new players not familiar with the genre. So there's better item descriptions, a clearer quickbar, and things like that, as well as a new “Janky House” starter blueprint you’ll receive upon creating a world.

We appreciate all the feedback you guys had on the recipe tweaks from R23 and have further refined the balance based on it. Finally, we’ve removed the daily coin button. You can read more about that here.

Update 23 - Bloktoberfest (Date: 2015 - 10 - 07)[]

The biggest change you’ll notice in this one is our refined hotbar UI, which aims to make equipping the new farming and ranching tools more intuitive. (...)

Good news for anyone playing in Europe -- you can now select servers closer to your crib. We're hoping it helps improve lag in multiplayer (e.g. less delay when friends are pulling blocks). It will only apply to new worlds you create after making the switch. Let us know how it feels if you try it.

A couple noteworthy improvements:

1) We spent a good amount of time refining player movement. Jump around, run up some stairs, walk on some slabs and feel the difference.

2) We've overhauled recipes for power cells, armor, and weapons. Our goal was to better encourage surface exploration in the adventurer progression.

Update 14 - World v2, The Biome Update (Date: 2015 - 04 - 08)[]

This is it! This is the update you’ve all been waiting for. We’ve crammed as many new biomes, creatures and cool things as we could fit into this update. Then we threw in a few more for good measure. Rather than give you a wall of text summarizing everything, we’ll just make three points before diving into the patch notes...

1) We’re not joking -- this release is massive. Normally we prefer to pace things out more, but World v2 requires you create a new world to get the new content. We want to keep to an absolute minimum occasions where we ask players to restart. On that note, you can still access and play on your old worlds, though there are a few items you’ll no longer be able to craft.

2) As big as this update is, it doesn’t quite have everything we were hoping it would. For instance, the new mobs’ attacks aren’t up to snuff compared to the usual suspects. They will get better in future updates. And we’ll likely continue to refine some of the textures and other art elements.

3) In addition to World v2, there are several changes you’ll enjoy no matter what world you’re in. For example, real flames on torches, bloom lighting effects, bigger chests, performance improvements / network optimizations for better gameplay overall and a bunch of bugfixes.

Patch notes are below. If you don’t have a chance to play this very moment, get a taste for what’s new in this teaser video. If you do have time, slap a power cell on, grab some torches and get lost!

  • Single-click selection on forge and processor is not working. Either double-click or drag to queue up items in those stations
  • Items on the quickbar are not accessible in the crafting station, forge, and processor.
  • Minor quickbar and drag-and-drop bugs (generally cleaned up by closing your inventory).

The Store Is Taking a Vacation

Hey guys,

We've talked a lot about our plans to change the store in Creativerse -- which, by the way, was largely a result of all the great feedback we got from you.

The first phase of that change will be happening with the next update. We will be turning off the store entirely. We will also be removing timers on the crafting station and tweaking all the other timers slightly (e.g. for the forge, processor and extractors). You will no longer be able to skip any timers, and they will never be tied to purchases again. A few updates later, we'll bring a new and improved store back featuring a bunch of new stuff -- extras, buffs, and cosmetics, etc.

We may bring back some of the items currently featured in the store, but there's no guarantee all the recipes and bundles will be identical. So if you were on the fence about wanting that Firework recipe or the Cathedral Pack, we suggest you get it soon. The new update could be live as early as next Monday.

Thanks for reading, and thank you for being one of our awesome early access players!

Update 2 (Date: 2014 - 09 - 23)[]

New Features and Improvements

Reactive World The world will now react to the changes you make! Push on it and it will push back. What happens when you try to build a snow fort in the desert? A corrupted paradise in the middle of a healthy forest?

Creature Awareness The creatures in Creativerse have awoken. They know where you are, they know what you’re doing. They can sense your presence and are drawn towards your activity. When they want something they’re much better at figuring out how to get it (for better or worse!) Who knows what other things have entered their brains?

Improved Combat Animations and Effects Swingier! Punchier! Boff, Zam, Zip! We’ve added a new layer of combat effects to your weapons and to the creatures. We’ve also improved the responsiveness of your weapons and the rate of attack. The creatures might be smarter and tougher, but so are you!

Increased Challenge I think you’re probably getting the point… we’ve made Creativerse a bit more challenging. But only in a good way! (we hope :-) Being able to stand around in the open at night and walk away from your computer only to return to find nothing has happened to you wasn’t very fun (right? :-) You better take our game seriously, that’s all I’m saying.

Recipe Categories Should be a lot easier to figure out what you can make. No more jumbled list! Check out the newly sorted categories and tabs in the crafting station.

Touchstone We’ve repurposed and changed the way the your old “teleporters” work. Now called touchstones, these objects have the same functionality as the original teleporters with some added benefits! You can now set touchstones to be public, or not, allowing you to hide your touchstone from others. Instead of a port-crystal you can now simply hit a key (T) to select a touchstone location you’d like to warp to.

Teleporters In addition to the touchstone we’ve introduced new craftable teleporters. These work in a completely different way, but allow you to create an advanced travel network. Craft a few and see if you can figure out how to link them all together!

Day variations You may notice that some days look different than others now… The hints of a larger system to come...

Fire Heat is really important now, and can set fire to things if they get hot enough. Beware surrounding your thatched house in fire pits. Unless you’re really cold. Or you like BBQ.

New Elemental Effects It used to be that lava and corrupted water were the only things that could affect the player... Keep an eye out for all new dangers (and benefits!) in your worlds.

Growth Some things can grow in Creativerse now (and more will be coming soon.) Can you figure out how to grow a tree?

And Regrowth! We know what you were thinking: my friends took ALL the red mushrooms! Fear not, the world now will regrow some items over time too.

Block Loot Blocks can drop more than one item! Some of your old favorites just might have bonuses :)

Compass Indicators Check out the new compass indicators - your touchstone, players, and crafting stations will now appear on your compass to help you find your way around!

Chat Colors Player names are now color-coded to match their compass indicator! Your chat window should be a little more parseable now.

Chat Notifications “Hey when did you get here?” “Dude, I’ve been here for like, 3 hours! We built this entire house together!” “WAHHH?” Yeah, no more of that. You’ll see chat notifications when people join and leave your world!

Visual Options We’ve added some visual options in the game settings menu that lets you adjust various visual effects:

  • Separate Lighting Thread Toggle - Turning this off should help performance on dual core machines.
  • Load Radius - Raise and lower this to affect how much terrain loads around your player (and increase performance on lower end hardware.)
  • Motion Blur - Turn motion blur on or off according to preference! To apply these changes (for now) exit and re-launch the game.

New items[]

  • Fire bomb - a lovingly-prepared package of flaming doom. Do be careful around that thatch mansion of yours :)
  • Freeze Bomb - If a fire bomb is “too hot to handle”, this freeze bomb is “too cold to hold”.
  • Purification Bomb - Has an interesting reaction near corruption.
  • Corruption Bomb - Has an interesting reaction near nature.
  • Healing Beacon - Sending out a steady stream of good vibes. Corruption can’t stand it!
  • Hardened Lava Wall - The perfect way to hide the fact that you’re raising a baby dragon indoors.
  • Obsidian Brick Wall - Hmm. Looks like there’s a snout-print on the otherwise shiny surface. Pigsy, we’re looking at you.
  • Sand Castle Wall - Castles made of this fall in the sea, eventually. Or so I’ve heard.
  • Iron Bars - ‘Passing the bar’ has never been easier!
  • Iron Bar Door - I’m ‘behind bars’ and loving it!
  • Queen Bee - Likes living deep in honeycomb. Can drone on about politics, though :(
  • Ashwood Sapling - Keeps you awake all night with its crying. Will be big and strong one day.
  • Cragwood Sapling - ‘Aww, you’re so cute! Err. . . someone needs a diaper change.”
  • Elderwood Sapling - ‘Hey, I was young once, too!’ -Elderwood

Even before Early Access started, Creativerse has already come a long way and progressed through many game design and even art style changes. Things once looked like this...
