Announcement: Release 100 coming tomorrow (with server downtime)

Devlog

Release :100:, it’s happening, and it’s happening tomorrow. :100: includes a fair number of new things. Here’s the summary:

  • Crafting GUI (functional prototype)
  • New block types: steps, slabs
  • New prop types: door system (N x 1 size)
  • Crafted wood props inherit tint colour from wood used
  • New grass system, seeds and growing
  • Block names show on hover in inventory
  • Completely new set of block names
  • New start state: empty inventory
  • New entity lighting
  • Bug fixes

All this means we’re going to need to take all servers offline tomorrow starting at about 9AM (GMT) for about 6 hours. During this downtime the Steam client will update, but the game won’t be playable until the servers have finished updating. We’ll be sure to share updates here and on Twitter about the status of the update.

You can expect to be able to play with the update from about 3PM GMT

We never intended release 100 to specifically be a big deal (the biggest updates are still in the pipeline, and we’ll be sharing lots about that after 100 is out), but it’s all hype now so let’s ride the train all the way to the station :train: :100: :railway_car:

I’m confused. Is this the 100 update? Why so much? When did you begin to release the game at all?

4

Well that would of course include fully internal development releases and all the bug-fix releases.

This is an amazing and very much anticipated update!!..sadly for myself, I won’t be able to try it out until Sunday :*(. But Sunday!!! Watch out computer, you will be busy that day haha.

We’ve done a lot of small updates since launch, but we started at about 50 publicly (a lot of those previous were internal pre-launch releases)

YES! Hey since we’re in a mode closer to survival now, could we get a creative type mode soon just for building funsies during this pre-alpha?
