Hi Crafters,

How is everyone doing lately?

We are very excited to be approaching the 1.0 Full Release of Crafty Survivors! Soon we will announce the release date of version 1.0 with another post here, more appropriate with the Release Date Announcement Trailer. So keep an eye out for that post, very soon!

We will also add the Spotlight Trailers for the last 2 characters of the game, Wallie and Newston. Those trailers will also be added here on the community before the release of 1.0.

As we mentioned before, after revealing all the characters of the game, we were going to make a pool with our community here and on our Discord to select the characters that would be added to the Steam Community Items for Trading Cards, that will be available at Full Release of the game.

We are now adding a link to a Google Forms here, where players can vote on up to 6 characters they would like to see on the Cards. Votes will be counted up to May 12th 11:59 PM (EDT), and the top 6 voted characters will appear on the Trading Cards for the 1.0 version.
Players can vote on their favourites here: Steam Community Item Trading Card Form[docs.google.com]

Who is looking forward to both Wallie and Newston in the 1.0 release?

That is all for today, with the Daily Newton!

Have a good day! And keep Crafty!

Hello, crafters!

How is everyone? With the Full release of 1.0 coming up and the development of the last 2 characters underway, it is time for ANOTHER REVEAL!

The 2nd character and the last to join the Crafty Survivors roster is ready for his reveal! A character that has been accompanying the game for a very long time, bringing all sorts of information to the group of survivors in the Village.

Meet:
For all that have been checking the in-game mail, this daring Reporter has been constantly sending information back to the other residents as he moved forward is his own adventures, to collect as much information about the plague that assails their lives. Newston has finally completed his job to his satisfaction and decided to join the rest of the gang to use his sources against the pesky Malignants!

The Reporter is a short ranged character, that utilizes his camera to damage enemies and take photos in the process. This Photos are specially important as 1 portion of his Special Command, Breaking News.

Special Command, Breaking News requires 3 different sources of information to become available and the Tier quality of said information will impact the end result of Breaking News to deal more damage or gain extra effects. These information can be gathered by Newston from his Basic Attack Camera or from his different skills, and will be held until the Special Command is activated. Different enemies will provide different Tier qualities of these required information, and higher tiers cannot be overwritten by lower tiers. His base kit allows him to get Bronze, Silver and Gold tiers, with his Talent Tree allowing to got 1 tier beyond them.

Breaking News needs a Photo, a Headline and a Content. Different skills can provide different sources, so mix and matching them will be the key to getting the best publication for the Special Command. His Talent Tree will also allow skills to gather more than 1 source under certain conditions, which will open his kit to more flexibility.

Newston also has a special skill to "kill himself"! He won't die exactly, but it is a fun skill that we designed for him to be able to throw enemies off his scent!

Turn information into power with Newston!
The Reporter is finally coming! We hope everyone enjoys meeting Newston!

Thank you all again for being a part of this journey with us and playing Crafty Survivors. We are not far from the Full Release and debut of the 1.0 of the game! Newston is the 15th and last character to join the roster for the final game! He has been around for quite a while and some people in the community showed quite a bit of interest in him from the start, so we are really excited to finally get to his announcement! Look forward for his debut in version 1.0!
