- Copper rake does not work – fixed
- Empty bucket does not pickup water/magma – fixed
- Paint stripper should be able to “undye” clothing and carpets – done. Thanks to Chris Drake for suggestion!
All these will be out in 1.29.2.
Please keep testing!
Btw. a great video from ArMax:
I love it.

Cool
Cool. Looks to be a promising update
And the stair bug? The one I mentioned in the last post, where I reported the bucket bug.
Here’s the bug in details. Tablet: Nextbook Ares 8 1 g ram. Blocks distance is 128 and the bug seems to happen usually when flying. It occurs in around 5 minutes and happens at random. Hoped this helped!!😁
So, whats the bug?
HA!
Btw I have a suggestion, when you paint a slab, and put a slab on top of it, the slabs go to the normal block without keeping half of it painted, this may be hard to do, but it wouldn’t waste paint. Anyway, that’s just a suggestion.
You cannot have two colours in one block space.
In that case, just paint a full block.
I hope previous files import ok with the new 32bit chunks format? Demo version doesn’t allow downloads so we can’t test it.
Just checking :)
Kaalus, the creator of that video is a GENIUS. Also seeing as how the character was carrying a torch while it also provided light would be a nice (assuming simple?) addition.
Yeah that’s a great idea
Maybe you should swap places of iron ore and malachite ore in creative inventory. Its a small thing but it would look better that way :)
And bottom of sandstone slabs should use the top texture, not side texture
Great video, but ya can’t hold a brandished torch lit can ya.. So….. Can you please make it so we can hold lit torches Kaalus
Amen, brother! :-) But if it was like that, torches should wear out. We have 32 bit blocks now, which Kaalus said he needed to make torches wear out, so….
Another thing; there are tall spruce leaves but theres no tall spruce wood. Was that intneded?
The wood should be the same as normal spruce trees, shouldn’t it?
The game freezes on starting a new world.
I’m using xperia cc.
I also tested on lowest graphical and block distance setting, the game still freezes. I also have sent a bug report via the google play report dialog that popped up when the game froze
Do you mean xperia c (http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_c-5541.php) or some other device? Is there anything in the game log?
I noticed that when I went into creative, there were birds, and fish but no land animals. There were no animals around. It was wierd. A world without animals. I wasn’t on static either.
Kaalus, can u add the ability to light an area when u hold a torch in ur hand? This can be done irl and it is a very useful feature.
Love that feature. It currently works for pumpkins/jackolaterns. They are lit up when you hold them
They do?? Awesome.
Much like Terraria or Certain mods For MC? Would be great…
What about the coloured 4 led and 7 segment displays in creative inventory. It’s quite hard to find the right colour because they all look the same
Very true
YES! KAALUS LISTEN TO THIS MAN!

Dispensers should dispense water/magma
Instead of buckets
+1
That would be awesome
Oh yeah! Or Maybe also Matches who set on Fire The Block in front of the Dispenser, if flammable?
Load the dispenser with flame arrows and it’ll do that.
How about a iron dispenser for water, magma
That would make more sense, so +1
That would be cool, but they are wooden, and it is lava, so…but otherwise, good idea.
When I was digging, I saw a bit of sky.
You get that usually if you have an older device that can not handle the distance you put in place and you ‘see’ the sky. That happened to me long ago with my old iPod Touch, I wonder if its the similar one
That happens on my old Ipad sometimes.
The “click” sound in the options menu is way too loud. I play with headphones and it hurts my ears. please make the sound less loud. thank you!
The video was awesome! I’ve had that happen to me before!
1) The Video is Really Funny, congrats to ArMax! I love the End who ironize to a well known “issue” of Survivalcraft XD (I’ve explained in this way to give no-spoilers)
2) Wait… With The Fire that doesn’t last infinitely on creatures, is really difficult to get Cooked Bacon/Birds from Animals on fire… Unless if you spam Fire arrows or matches on them…
3) Thanks for adding the Possibility to Undye Clothes, it’s a honor to me mentioned by you, Kaalus!
To be Mentioned* auto-correct trolled me…
Technically it should be bleach for clothing..
Well technically you don’t paint clothing in the first place. Dye and paint are very different. I just choose to ignore little things such as that.
I saw one of the comments in Google play for 1.29 he had problems with FPS of the game everything a word pop up like
Your wet when your going on the water is this a bug or problems with the phone
FPS drops when a word pops up
I dont think its a bug, but hunting animals with fire arrows/matches produces raw meat, i think ist because they extinguish themselves.
i mean even if fire kills them, you still get raw meat
I’ve already mentioned it… Technically you can get Cooked stuff, but only if the “Corpse” is kept on fire until they despawn and drop the meats…
Kaalus, please consider making a few particals when a animal dies black specs and add fly sound effects…
… And also, please consider adding fire flies for ambiance near dusk and at night.
+1 for the fireflies
Maybe the new feature is more storage space. If the blocks are 32 bits then everything would be 32 bits.
Love it
Stop spamming.
+1
I found a nice seed for 1.29 in the demo version, im wondering will the same seed work in the full version once 1.29 is released there?
Suggestion: Can you give fences the ability to connect to blocks next to them?
Btw this was also shown at 0:12 in ArMax’s video but I’m sure it has been requested before :-)
Idk if it’s a bug but I started/spawned on a tree it being a super tall spruce.
It’s not a bug it’s one of the update
Yeah I’ve noticed that wolves spawn in your home’s a lot. I would be off travelling and come back to my house with at least 1-2 wolves. Also I’ve also noticed that the carroways don’t spawn a lot like they should. Unless it’s because I Don t travel in desert A lot. I mainly travel the desert that I live in(just to remove the cold effect of having to use fire to warm up)
How do you get the update for full version? Is it only for the demo?
How to you test 1.29 for android full? Or can you only test it on the demo?
Only the demo is for beta testing.
Sorry if this is still something you are sorting but the “badrequest400” haven’t been able to upload a world sing halfway through 2015. Sorry if this is just repeating something someone has already said.
By the way kaalus, 1.29 looks amazing I am so excited to get trees so that if you jump on a mount, you won’t die XD
Here’s a way to survive wolfs!!! Just make a small underground shelter
Nope they can spawn underground. :(
They may go underground, but I’ve never seen a wolf in deep caverns. You may be thinking of Hyenas, even though they aren’t canids. They sure look like it!
Lions will also spawn underground. I’ve had them kill me before.
And Bears too if I remember well…
Yes, bears and lions spawn underground, but you’re missing the point! :-)
This never happened to me before wolves can go to little spaces (1 block)
I made my house with no hole but with windows
Well, not the much when you look at them.
*that
I can’t find the demo :(
Only the Google Play demo has the update and there is no demo on iOS as far as I know.
Yep, there is no demo anywhere else, except for the windows store.
I feel like the next great wait has begun…
Doubt it. He was already working on 1.30 before he published 1.29 so why would he leave?
I agree, but it just feels like it.
Wait so, on Google Play if says there are about 500 Thousand Downloads (although there are probably more because it is not EXACTLY 500 Thousand). Based on the fact that SurvivalCraft is $3.99, that means that Kaalus (over the span of 3-4 years) has made $1,995,000 give or take a few thousand. Nice job Kaalus. SurvivalCraft has made quite an impact.
Google takes 30%
My mistake. Then about ~$598,500 on Google Play. Still pretty good.
And it is worth every cent!
That’s not counting Amazon, Windows, and Apple.
Yeah, but that could be easily calculated.
My hope for the big new feature:
“Autimatic-Generate-Structure-Block”
1. Place “AGS-Block”
2. Click on edit
3. Type in block ID, orientation, x-y-z Achsis, widh, high and lengh
4. Click “generate”
5. Profit
For example:
I wish to build a wall of brickstones. I place the AGS-Block. Set the Brick.ID set the Axises (orientation), set in for 20blocks lengh, 4 Blocks widh and 6 Blocks high.
So I can build my custom automatic generated stuff ingame.
Mega Boost for creative mode!!!
This is a MC example:
After seeing your video here I downloaded this mod for MC. Incredibly powerful tool for building. Great fun, but not sure how feasible on tablets. I know they released one for MCPE but it is very buggy. Still, a game changer for building.
That video, brilliant, just add that light while holding a torch feature!
If that’s all that was broke that’s pretty good:) I know recoding is tough.
Awesome update!
Please add animals and birds to the islands in ocean! Then I will get PC version :-)
I think animals sometimes spawn on islands, but i’m not sure.
Only cave animals, polar bears (on icebergs) and mooses. No birds, cow, wolves etc.
Yeah, i think it was bears that i saw.
No one is talking about this butttt… The next major thing will be Magic.
Btw. if anyone guesses what I have in mind I am going to start believing in dowsing and fairies.
This a quote from Kaalus of course..
“Btw. if anyone guesses what I have in mind I am going to start believing in dowsing and fairies.”
I don’t think so mainly because 1. and 2. he said that he didn’t want to add anything supernatural and he just said on that same post that he hadn’t mentioned it before 3. Why would magic need 32 bits? 4. Wouldn’t it be relatively easy to do magic? He even said he had to look it up, so i don’t think so. No idea what int could be, though.
Probably not. Hopefully not.
Probably not his quote?
Check the coal block post. Don’t want to argue, but i really doubt it. And don’t want it.
I have a bug, but it doesn’t seem to be a version specific bug. It has to do with terrain generation. At coordinates 0,0 and lower you fall through the terrain. I personally tested on Windows 10 pc, and it has been confirmed by at least two other users on the forums with different devices.
