Hello Everyone!
As you all know, I have been working on the new update. Traditionally, there’s good news and bad news. The good news is that the update will happen, and very soon! High time, too.
The bad news is that of the three huge new features I planned, only one is completed. And it’s not the one I hinted about in one of the last posts. So, all your guesses made over that little piece of image I posted back then, they will have to wait. What I can tell you already, some of you have guessed correctly! You guys should be working for the police, homicide department. A few tangentially related black and white pixels, and you nail it. Startling.
Anyway, it’s not all bad about the update, because apart from the big feature, there will be dozens of little goodies coming as well. And the big one will make a sizable difference for survival and for creative players.
Here’s one of the little goodies coming in 2.2:
Wait, what’s that in his hand? Yep, it’s a club spiked with rocks, bleeding edge technology from the ice age:
In brief, in 2.2 there will be a tools and weapons system overhaul, to make Survivalcraft more realistic. I’ll let you know more about it and the other stuff later.
By the way, Ruthless Conquest got published on Steam. I am sounding waters there, just in case I wanted to release Survivalcraft, because I have never published anything on Steam so far. If you have a Steam account, grab your free copy from there.
In fact, Ruthless Conquest has become quite popular, there’s thousands of active copies across all the platforms, and usually 10-20 multiplayer games in progress that can be joined. Far cry from the 2018.

hi
Thanks for telling us, Kaalus!
Welcome back!
Woaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah 😍 finally the long wait is over! Don’t think I’ve ever waited so long for a game without losing interest! Thank you Kaalus 😊👍
Absolutely can’t wait for the update!!!
Second!!!
Welcome back Kaalus!
El arma se ve muy bien, me pregunto cuanto daño causará y si sera efectiva
¡Lo sé! ¡No puedo esperar para verlo! Además, estoy usando el traductor de Google para hablar contigo. tengo que amar google. No puedo esperar para el post Kaalus!
Hey, welcome back again!
Achei Que tinha abandonado o jogo, estou ancioso pra próxima versão, amo Survivalcraft
I really happy to hear from you again Kaalus. The club looks cool and I cant wait to see the changes made.
As for the feature we guessed I wanna say seasons?
So so exited!!!! Can not wait for the update! Btw what were the other things you were working on? If one was multiple player servers I hope it comes soon!!
Anyone else notice that Walter looks sad? Maybe an emotions update?
No, I think its cuz of the hat. Just a little graphical “problem” probably
After I saw your comment and looked at the screenshot again, he seemed kinda sad to me as well. But I compared it with a screenshot from an older blog post, and there’s no difference. So Walter isn’t actually sad.
hum ai sim mano de brasil
This is one of the most exciting news I heard for this year!!! Thank you so much for the upcoming update!! Survivalcraft FTW
Hooray! Welcome back Kaalus!
Will you update the pc-gaming way of the control of mobile phone?I make it connected with my mouse and keyboard, I can use my keyboard to control the character’s movement, but I can’t use the mouse to control the camera. How can I fix it?
I really need this
That bit of realism is why I like Survivalcaft so much. I’m so excited about all this!
Old faithful kaalus! I knew you would eventually come through with something. I am guessing that the “big” feature you could be hinting at could be multiplayer since you seemed like you were testing it on ruthless conquest. Anyways, I am glad you are back and cannot wait for the new update. I will surely enjoy the new update and my viewers will be excited when I start posting new videos about the update on my Youtube channel. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck on completing the update and remeber to don’t givs up on the community even though they think you have left them. :)

I’ve been checking every day! The dream has been achieved! I’m excited to see what 2.2 will be all about, it will be weird trying out new features in the game, since I only really got into a survival world around 2.1. (By the way, I have already e-mailed you suggesting this, but in case that was lost in spam, is it possible that you can add an option to disable lightning in worlds?)
WOOOOO! I think steam releases would be amazing as well, that is going to be huge.
Crayder! How’s it going?
Would you care to join my discord server?

Welcome back!
Glad to see you back Kaalus! Super excited to see how the tools/weapons overhaul goes.
Yayyy
I’m so happy horses are finally being added!
Horses are already in the game, been here since 1.21 if I remember correctly.
Woooosh
i been waiting for survivalcraft on steam for a long time, this news put a smile on my face :)
Hey fam, nice to see ya back, can you add turtles?
game still dead. add multiplayer
How would this new weapon that is displayed be any different than the machete though? Interesting
Online servers using Survivalcraft would be So. Much. Fun. Just imagine.
Please make this a reality one day. I’ve been waiting since 1.24 back in 2014/15.
Hey! Ngl thought you were gone forever
Hey, Igor! You are a great man! Did you seen a bug with food, that may stacking unlimited in hotbar?
I will still beging for you to stretch the day/night time longer
Leonardo Brasil. Muito bom carlos rufus
I checked my email at 4 in the morning not at all expecting this, but I’m so glad I did! My day started off terrible and got progressively better until it became the best in a long while. So excited for the future. 😁
YEEEEEEEES!!!! I’M SO HAPPY
Hey kaalus will there be animals in 2.2 ???
Kaalus Please add Backpacks :( and Fish Rod
Hi, Kaalus, welcome back!!I and my mother are very very very fan of you. We like and play survivalcraft a lot!!!Thank you for gives us this wonderful game. God bless you!!🙏❤😇
Survivalcraft on steam?
?
please launch survivalcraft on steam! :)
Welcome Back.
Curious to know more about this Spiked Club…
Tools and Weapons overhaul?
I wonder if there’s some kind of different types of melee damage like a difference between Slash, Blunt or Piercing Damage or something like that.
Nice To see you again Kaalus! Time sure flies!
Are you considering my “Smoke and Explosives” idea? I emailed it to you a while back…
Oh, right; It’s me, Justin McDonald! I Have a new email address. :-)
Dude calm down
dude, he didnt do anything wrong. Thats justin, hes a great guy, no need to jump on him for being excited
Oh, and the moderation… Kaalus? I would like for you to allow my comments to post on the blog… It is quite bothersome; seeing that “Your comment is awaiting moderation.” quote above every single comment I make. Thanks, and regards!
Great! Cant wait :)
Hi spoon3r I love your worlds
Hi spoon3r i love your creations
As same I glad to see this post later together time!
Kaalus, this is not a new idea, but it would be very cool if the game will be able to create modifications. I would then happily make a couple of mods and share with the community. This can bring new styles of play and entertainment to the game.
Mods are illegal… Google Play has been flooded with illegal “mods” of Survivalcraft 2.
They are free to download, but are packed with adds!
Violation of the law!!!
I simply cannot get Google to care :-(
It has been a long few months of desperate attempts to get these illegal copies taken down, but in recent weeks, their numbers only exploded!
There is a common trend…
Each illegal copy has adds in the same places, and in app purchases to get rid of adds.
No two copies are linked to the same account.
The accounts have only one associated game (the illegal copy).
All of the copies are updated together…
All update descriptions are vague, but are features added to SC by Kaalus…
The one of the latest updates was “support for 64 bit processors”…
Yes, illegal mods is a problem. But only android have their. I woud like to have ability to install and activate any number of mods to any platform. For example: I installed mods A, B, C on my ipod and I activated only A and C in new world I made.
I appreciate what you do, but I would gladly have given up all you latest additions, even though they are great, to rather have multiplayer.
Anyway, please send us the texture pack that will be used for the final update. It will give us time to create new textures beforehand.
That could be useful, but it might spoil the surprise for some features.
You will still need to figure out a lot. I am willing to lose the surprise to be able to get the textures out in time. Maybe Kaalus could get a few texture creators on an email list or something, exclusively.
You needa quit whining about mutliplayer. Everyone knows that everyone eants mutliplayer. So does Kaalus. The idea is nothing new.
Why do you bash me? I have been in this game longer than most. I know how much people want multiplayer. This is a forum where people share their views and requests. Am I not allowed to do the same.
This request has been issued numerous times and yet here we are, still without multiplayer. So just stating what we still want, is not a sin. Stop bashing others please. This is a reasonable request.
Im just saying man, you are constantly asking for multiplayer. Kaalus knows, and so do all of us. And I too have been here for years. Not from the beggining but probably since 2012 or 2013
Exciting news on the update. I didn’t expect anything more from this game tbh. It’s pretty perfect the way it is -_I prefer solo gaming.
Me: “Is there any sigh of chief?”
Follower: “Negative Sarge”
Kaalus:*in a cool master chief voice* “Not yet”
yay finally an update
We love Kaalus
Great to hear from you again kaalus.
2 suggestions for a future ruthless conqest update;
1.make combat more fluid by still being able to control deployed ships by dragging the marquee around them and then selecting which planet you want them to change their course to, or even have them wait in mid space.
2. Make customizable maps, or at least a little more control over certain variables wether you want antarians, reinforcements, or maybe you could place planets on a map maker.
okay but can we have longer days, less lightning, and random weather?
Awesome stuff! Thanks Kaalus! Can’t wait! Keep up the good work! :D
Can you please tell us why you don’t provide updates periodically? You needlessly kill off your fans.
because in game dev especially as an indie it isnt easy to post all the time, trust me
I agree
see, heres the thing. The occasional “still working” goes a lot further than an almost year long silence
Please add miner cart!
My best guess as to how Kaalus plans to make the weapons system more realistic, is by changing the way health is managed.
Is anyone familiar with Super Smash Bros?
Instead of having injuries — take away — from your health; injuries would only accumulate. The number of injuries sustained, and their severities, would influence the outcome of your next injury. That is; even if you have taken 300% damage by a bull shark, chances are, you wont be killed by stepping on that sea urchin on your way out of the water. But a nearby wolf… That would be the nail in your coffin!
Maybe he is adding bandages
Kaalus, have you ever considered a console version of SC? Not in the near future I would presume, but at all? Glad to hear from you again too. People get so nervous not hearing from you haha
kaalus I think you should put what I have been talking about a long time ago, an option of having more than 18 colors in one world, because what good we can create countless colors and we can only use 18 per world. It would be really cool if you could put an option in which you could use up to 200 colors per world, which would make the color variation and decorations more realistic.
kaalus would also be a cool idea to put in 2.2 colored lights that illuminate with different colors and also a choice of more powerful lamps to use in the street lighting of cities in the game
Abi multiplayer-online özelliği gelsin arkadaşlarımızla uzaktan oynayabilelim. Ve daha çok eşya getir kolay gelsin.
