The Gates of Tidehaven are Now Open!
The big day has finally arrived! The gates of Tidehaven are officially open for business.
As our Early Access journey begins today, those of you who played the demo are in for some massive surprises and brand-new features. If you’re stepping into the world of Tidehaven for the very first time—welcome! We hope what you see here gets your gears turning and your tankards foaming.
First, let’s take a look at our Roadmap to see what’s coming as we pave the way from Early Access to the 1.0 release:
The Roadmap
From day one, we’ll be closely following your feedback to address any issues as quickly as possible. We are committed to perfecting the game's balance, UI, and Quality of Life (QoL) improvements based on your input.
Our first week and first month patch will focus on fixing potential bugs and introducing new items we’ve been itching to add. Expect a few hotfixes in the coming days as we squash any critical day-one bugs. If you spot anything out of the ordinary, don't hesitate to shout it out on our Steam Community page or hop into our Discord. We’ll be watching every single thread.
What’s Brewing in the Future?
Our to-do list is long, and we’re aiming for a level of detail and creativity that we think you're going to love. Here’s a glimpse of what's on the horizon:
Mining Evolution: What you see now is just a basic prototype. We’re going to turn mining into a standalone joy for the idle-game enthusiasts out there.
- High Stakes & Mini-gamesFor those who love to double their gold (or lose it all!), new gambling games are coming. We’re also adding outdoor mini-games that offer unique gifts and buffs.
- Weather & World DynamicsWe’re already working on dynamic weather transitions. Rain or shine, the town will react, and your buildings will gain new features, from detailed repairs to full-scale customization.
The Ultimate Inn: If you’re the type who spends hours on decoration just to show off your tavern to your friends, every major patch will have a little something special for you. Also, furniture category will have some changes. You'll find out why we separated items in two categories at the first place!
This journey has been a long time coming for us, and we can’t wait to hear what you think. Join us on Discord to share your suggestions, or just to hang out with the team.
Your journey begins now. Keep your tankards full and listen for the sweet clink of gold in your pockets!
Cheers, Bunch'o'Nerds Team 🍻
