With the introduction of horses, of course I had to rework animal walking animations. It’s no longer acceptable to have simple leg forward / leg back sequence. All four-legged animals are getting a canter/gallop animation in 1.21, along with the corresponding sound effects.
Here’s a video of a bull galloping after the player:
iOS version is in review at Apple. I will let you know how it goes. According to http://reviewtimes.shinydevelopment.com, average review time is currently 6 days. We’ll see.
To clarify the confusion, iOS version will run on the following devices:
- iPod Touch 3, 4, 5
- iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, 5
- iPad 1, 2, 3, 4
- iPad Mini
And most likely, any newer models that Apple will introduce in the future :-) iOS 4.3 or newer is required.
iPod Touch 3 and iPhone 3GS may need reduction of visibility range for smoother gameplay. Their CPUs are too slow to handle all the terrain smoothly.
iPod Touch 4 and iPhone 4 may need reduction of resolution for smoother gameplay. Their GPUs are too slow for 3D in retina res.

First?
Dear kaalus please can you add other people to the world I feel lonely maybe another boat could drop of some villagers or you could throw colour full eggs on the floor to speak them from Louis PS I want to be a game developer when I’m older to.
I meant spawn not speak sorry
Yeah we need NPCs so much and I really want rail tracks and carts
Me to
Hey kaalus.can you add like, castles with guards.and you can hire the guards.They could fight for you when a bear or a bull tryies to attack you.and they can follow you.and if you go far away from them,they teleport.oh and if u have a weak tool some blacksmiths can fix it.there could be a farmer that gives u bacon.(From the cows.farmers have cows).And a some one that u can trade with.u can give him anything and he’ll give u iron.and u can use the iron to buy things like food or tools.or even animal spawners.can u add that in 1.21 or. 1.22
That’s a really good idea hey kaalus listen to Olivia’s idea please she needs publicity
look, he is busy!!! and that is a lot to do.
Yeah it is a cool idea I want NPCs with villages that randomly spawn throughout the world
That sounds like you’re copying minecraft mod called tale of kingdoms.
Or maybe he can add downloadable mods.then we can have things like portal craft or someone can make their own survival mods like people make their on texture pack.
Get out if u don’t like the idea, minecraft copied terraria which had guards first so minecraft still copied. Gunpowder think about it
Then people will say wahh ur copying mine craft. HELL NO ADD WAT OLIVIA SAID,
Second
Hey kaalus, can you add movable gun powder crates, like if u make a piston u can push the crate and will go flying like a cannon, because im adding a bunker to my survival map and I wanted to create a cannon for emergencies, so I can clear all the were wolves at full moon. I DON’T WANT ANY WOLVES NEAR MY MANSION AND VILLAGE. Also please give us the update on pistons. So I want movable gunpowder barrels ( pewdie pies nemisis) and pistons. I have an idea if ur creating a piston, when u tap on the piston it shows how u can change the speed and strength and how fare u wanna push the block far, like it says 3434m. I want a rifle. So u will need to craft the rifle and the bullets and gunpowder. That’s all my ideas for now.
Let change the world… In my village don’t have any mobs… Only those damm birds
Where is the survivor where is the werewolfs?
I have a theory that getting rid of the tall grass makes animals go away (which makes sense). In my first world, I cleared a large area around my house and then I never got another cow in the area again. So now I never clear the tall grass (since I like the animals). This is just a theory…I don’t actually know how the game works.
That makes sense… Around my house i don’t have tall grass
It comes out on full moon so when u see the moon and it’s it full phase look at a wolf and will turn to a were wolf
full moon or new moon has to be there for were wolfes to be there
Hey dude when do you think you will be done withe updafe i realy want to see it in action in my own hands and oh also are we goin to be able to ride the horses!!!!
Yes we can ride the horses
Alright good!
Yes I really want to know when the updates coming:)
Kaalus, i want islands. :-)
use certain seeds to get islands :) try kingramsesii there is a nice island somewhere i dunno where
It isnt working. :-(
oh too bad i remeber going right from spawn point.. :( dig straight down 2blocks left from spawn point and find a lava pocket near basalt
I tried it and I found it too. And I started to burn. XD
the lava fell at me from the top when i mined a malachite ore
awesome animation and please add industrualcraft stuff and mualtiplayer
Are you goin to do multiplayer for this game cause alot of people would like that and wht is industrialcraft.!!?
I want multiplayer plz Kaalus
Yes! Multiplayer please!
Yes multiplayer!
HE sorry caps lock …he cant add multiplayer then everyone would grief.
Olivia u wouldnt have to put ur maps on multiplayer……and he could probably could make it to where we can make a lock block, where other ppl cant destroy blocks on that map.
Kaalus could just put servers in public that he controls are u saying that kaalus will grief us? Funny. But I would actually want my own server but I won’t grief. So I vote for multiplayer
Go on help and click recipedia you tw–
I agree multi player will be awesome.
Everyone wants multiplayer!!!
also can you make clouds move and touch them(3d cloud)
very realistic
Can u make sticky pistons with Redstone and Redstone repeaters and Redstone torches so that we can make funky new thinks. Plz could u add these. Big fan!!!!!!
WE already have wires.why do we need redstone.maybe he can make repeaters.and torches that glow red.and pistons.and sticky pistons
Same as me
That woud ge coping minecraft
yeah mason… but sticky piston? maybe smelt glue!
Red stone is different from wires but our germanium ore is the same thing as red stone. If u want red stone get the minecraft.png texture pack, it switches the germanium ore animation to red stone.
WHEN can you show a close up of the horses
-_- I now know you are excited for the horses because u said, can we have unicorns and kaalus added horses which is kinda the same thing. I WANT EPIC DRAGONZZ AND U GET A SWORD JUMP ON TOP OF IT AND KILL IT THEN U LEVEL UP TO 100000!!!! Thats another crazy idea or maybe it’d be cool.
That’s copying Minecraft.though kaalus could add ice dragons and fire dragons that hide in these biomes.the fire dragon would live in the desert and the ice dragon would live in the snow biome.well maalus is busy and maybe he could add it in 1.22 or 1.23
Sorry auto correct ….I meant kaalus not maalus
F
Thanks
Good animation and animal behaviour!! Only slight niggle is with the sound… (Having living in the countryside all my life) It seems a bit odd that a cow is making running sounds that are very similar to a horse cantering on tarmac :/
True :-) But the sounds are not final yet and keep in mind that some compromises have to be made, it’s a mobile game that has to be downloaded over the air, so size matters :-)
Ah, fair enough (Y) And performance on the device is everything!
Nice, I live in the country too.
yeah i guess so
LOL u got a point there bro
industrailcraft is like tikkit or feed the beast stuff basicly machines
Apples and life bar for horses…
add stiky piston and redstone
Redstone? ?this is blocks to do things at minecraft, we already have wires and eletricity
We need sticky pistons and that will change SC forever! Kaalus needs to add these. Plz Kaalus
THATS COPYING MINECRAFT!!!!!!!YOU JUST WANT A COPY OF MINECRAFT DO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t people be HAPPY with what Kaalus has already done?
If you want to have stuff like MC go play it. Kaalus is already putting all his time into this game, and if your not satisfied with SC then I recommend you seriously need to play MC
im extremly happpy for wat kaalus has done for us.. cant you people see? kaalus is extremely busy taking his time for our sake? he is working so hard to fulfill your SC wants!
Add humans please then you can make towns and could have the people ride the horses
The game is based on a lonly island.if he added people the island and the setting of the game would not make sense.
It would make sense, he goes to an UNCHARTED island which he doesent know wats in the wilderness. And there’s villages with Indians so yes, I vote for humans
I want a mechanism where u find a human and u can bond with him and u can give him any weapons. You could make him level up and make him stronger. Give him armor. He kills any mobs for u unless u change his objective.
So this means ios version is coming out in 6 daya
what does(ios) means???
It means android or for phones.or maybe for computers.
No olivia… IOS means the Operational Sistem of Apple devices… Like android is
All the things of apple have an “i” before the name, that’s why apple OS it’s called IOS
Or in even simpler terms
Windows XP, Windows Vista or Linux are examples of an “OS” for a computer
Windows phone 7.5, IOS 6 and Android 4.1 are examples of an “OS” for a smartphone
An “OS” stands for “operating system” … In extremely simple terms, an “OS” is a piece of software that allows a human to interact with a machine
THX nick. Now I know.what it means, ……………..I LIKE TRAINS
It basically means apple
HAHA YEAH
idiots
Coral reefs, fireflies and rainbow…. And house stuff..
Delete werewolfs and add vampires
Vampires
Vampires
Vampires
Vampires
What you say is what you are!
No
No twilight references
Seriously
No
😂
-_- arghhh
I love vampires man, i love castlevania, i love Bram Stocker’s Dracula xD
Twinlight is… Twinlight makes me nervous!
Vampires Really!? No, I would rather keep the werewolves
Vampires leave all night and at days stay at caves…
And if we have villagers vampires could infect them
Diamonds are not flammable…
Even though they are carbon they aren’t, pencil led is not flammable yet it is carbon.
Please fix your periodical error.
(P.S. I have mentioned this before… Many times)
😒
It adds to the challenge, Its so you cant cheat too much with gunpowder
True.I get annoyed too about that.though diamong blocks r flamible.try it.Just place a diamond block and light it on fire.its flammible…Though it doesint work in furnaces.
Yes. We know. Many many times you’ve said it.
Cars powered by furnaces😏
You’re complaining about the game not being realistic (burning diamond blocks), yet you’re suggesting running a “car” powered by a furnace burning leaves, planks or coal …. Hmmm
Actually some early cars and even trains are run of furnaces
Ah, suppose.. “steam tech” … But a car wouldn’t suit this game… Plus, its now unnecessary as we’re about to get horses! :)
i know right i mean A CAR ON AN UNINHABITED ISLAND? WHO DOES THAT STUFF
A car would actully make use for geranium and iron
In the video, do only defenseless cows (horses also?) become afraid? Or do bulls, wolves, boars, etc also?
Hey kaalus, I know this is unrelated but can we have multi core support and bigger draw distance for tegra 3 devices like my optimus 4x? Would love be able to see a mile ahead ;) and as mentioned before are you planning on animals that damage structures? Someone mentioned rhinos, also stuff that can climb above you creeper style, maybe monkeys/snakes. I dig the realism but we really need more danger! More stuff should spawn in caves too.
kaalus or someone should make a thread on toucharcade http://forums.toucharcade.com/ !!!
I should feel for kaalus because EVERY time he post about the game we have a ton of people wanting this and that.if you go to the forums and read a little you’ll see why he doesn’t already have the things that everyone ask for.because I’m pretty aure if he could just make multiplayer he would.so for his sanity and mine if you wanna make suggestions about things that will make you happier got to the forum and complain on there.I’m pretty sur e there’s there’salready a thread about any and every single thing you guys bring up ALL THE TIME.love the game keep up the good work kaalus
Sure*
I hate the fact that every single post, without fail will have the same old idiots constantly going on about multiplayer, npc’s, pistons, blah, blah, blah and other things that not only don’t fit into survivalcraft, but wouldn’t work for a 600mhz processing powered phone, so therefore is not possible to add… >.<
What if kallus released a post saying what can and can’t. Be done.
for instance, a alternate world will never happen, but multiplayer will at some point.
Just have a list along those lines and it should stop it for a while.
Emphasis on while.
Excellent idea, hunter.
People ruin everything.
ipad 2 is JUST what i need SC to work on
How will downloading maps work on iOS
Proplythe same
Hey, Kaalus, do you think you could post some gameplay on an ipod touch? Thanks :)
So, if animals can become afraid of u, and hate u, if ur kind to them, can they become a companion, and grow attached to u??? I reeeaaaaallllyyyy hope ur adding animal companionship/tameing in the nxt update! :) keep up good work, its awsome so far!
am bored when will new post come out.
I really wish there were mods,maybe you can develop another app that allows us to make mods,to make it easier maybe you give categories,like animals/items/blocks/feature.passive/aggressive/weapon/transparent/non transparent/tile entity/food.Then edible/non edible/throwable/craftable/spawns naturally,herbivore,carnivore/fast/slow.Then we design it.Sorry if u dont understand
I want it too!
WE NEED NPCS SO BAD IN THIS GAME.
ADD NPCS
Can u add npcs
helloo . UNINHABITED
i changed my mind mpcs could be cool
Werewolves were once people too! :'(
Pleeeeeeeaaase??????’-‘
please add multiplayer and zombie or soler panel and MFE and armor
Omg x.x sc dont coppying mc u hell cant read x.x :-Q:-@:-Cx-(:-|:-!:-$:O=-O:-\:-[:-Xo_O
Agree wth multiplayer, but not wth zombies.
Yes multiplayer!
no zombie solar panel? PHOTODIODE
AND NPCS!!!!
NO!!!!! UNINHABITED ISLAND.STOP YELLING ABOUT IT AND KAALUS WOULD TELL U IF HE CAN.Sorry for the harsh words
no npcs ARE useful
CAN SOMBODY MAKE A TUTORIAL ON MAKIN TEXTURE PACKS PLEASE….. POSIBLY DAVERAVE COULD
Hey kaalus, just a few suggestions for future updates (NO RUSH).
Puddles/flooding from rain into homes, basements, and shallow caves/tunnels.
Boars drop tusks to make weapons.
Flashlight helmets (whenever clothing/armor becomes available)
Option to be a female character
Double chests (yes, i know this is like minecraft, but it would be a huge help when organizing)
My favorite: A hygiene bar: replenished by taking a dip in water, which would add danger because of the new aquatic species; and when not replenished, dirties the look of your character and slowly decreases health.
i agree with female thing.. floods..double chest and flashlight helmet
Kaalus u should make stage coaches with four chests in the back so we can transport our stuff PLEASE
I like that idea!
Geez, If you want SC to “copy” MC then leave and play MC
I mean, Really, you want this and that and you want everything in the world
But can you get it? No, it isn’t possible for you to have everything.
Stay cool, wait for Kaalus to say when he is Ready to do NPCS and stuff.
Only, the thing we need-Want for people is a Girl character.
+ Like I said Be HAPPY with the work Kaalus has put into SC, and Maybe,just Maybe all your Waiting will be worth it(already is) ;p
True.
NOW I really have to stop asking for animal castles.NOOO WHAT HAVE I DONE!
Kaalus, will riding a horse be sticky or will you have to hold down move button
Also I am making a big sc project (not a map or texture pack) and it is urgent I contact you.
Bttf_for_life@hotmail.com
kaalus is SURE trying to make a surprise and in the forums someone had said kaalus posted that there will no farming because its not related to future updates
THIS IS GONNA BE EPIC
I have an idea. Ok… You can add real trains so you will not copy minecraft. I want to be able to transport items faster. And I think trains will look good. :-)
Stage coaches with 4 chests in the back would be better
wtf is that?
A stage choach is a buggy pulled by horses that can be used for carrying cargo
:D great.. now with npcs i could make a successful little town
And can you add crocodiles
“Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”
LOL battle cats know
Lmao not know -_-
Kaalus when is 1.21 coming out??? say please
April 4th
Just a request has not been replying offen. Hm what is he doing now?
yeah i wonder
There should be jungles
When will 1.21 be released
I THINK it will come out on April or next week.
when new post getting really bored.
Try my world please https://www.dropbox.com/s/049v2o83k8ds4ci/port%20seastar.scworld
Please please please and give feedback
I doesn’t work
Please add when you sneak you can get in one block holes(Like if you where crouching inside an air vent).
Add a zombie game mode where there’s zombies and add guns if you like but please add a bow. I hope kaalus reads this, really looking forward the for the next update.
oh no no no no zombies or bow.. but crouch? good enough
Kaalus already said the current game mechanics would not be compatible with crouching. It’s all in the forums.
Bows and guns would be EPIC,but I think it would have to wait for 1.21
I mean 1.22
Hello! Your game is very popular in Russia, but we are lacking in the Russian language. If you agree, I can translate texts in Russian language, and you have to prepare your program part. !!!I have been using machine translation, sorry for the errors if they are!!!
a tebe sama igra to nravitsa
Yes, write in English
Sooo,your in Russia?
Noooooo what do you think stupid
Kaalus since you’re adding horses, it would make sense if you add a horse pulled wagon. You can craft it with multiple sticks.
You should add some other people like villagers or stuff like cannons and technology that’s a little more advanced
Can you please put the updates on the kindle fire as well please
The update will arrive on all supported platforms, no worries.
When will the update be released?
I think you should also add random downed villages with people
*spawned
Can u please release 1.20.7.0 on kindle
ur the best and heres a advice,., can u make an item that can make horses jump more higher so they can jump fences when riding.,. the item cold be a horse spring
can u please update android survival craft i like ur work better than minecraft,., good luck
