Homestead Contest Bug Fixes

Welcome to my mansion, Mr. Piggles. Please do not eat my entire farm, kthx. Creative CHKNeers have been sharing their Homesteads over on Discord so we think its time for a...

Homestead Screenshot Contest!

Wed love to see what youre building in CHKN. Take a screenshot and then head over to the #buildings channel on Discord to share it. Show us your lavish mansions, spooky bunkers, cozy farms, impenetrable fortresses or maybe youve built something completely different? Show off your handiwork and well showcase them in our next post!

Updates & Bug Fixes (v0.7.3B)

Weve pushed another update live. Thank you to our Discord friends for all the feedback and helping us track down some of these bugs.

Crafting progression quests will now always trigger as you explore, regardless of whether youve completed the initial on-boarding quest
You now need an open party slot to create a new creature in Adventure Mode (This is to prevent confusion people were reporting when creating a new creature and then being unable to add it to the party. You can still have multiple tamed creatures!)
Life Blocks no longer open the edit sphere when used, so no more unwanted launching of the creature builder at inopportune moments (like combat, whoops). You can use the Life Shaper or select Edit in the radial menu to build whenever you like.
Party/tamed creatures will now help remove stumps
Bug Fixes:
- Identified and fixed an issue that caused frame rate to drop over time
- A creature being ridden in Automatic Riding Mode no longer moves erratically
- The Build a powerful creature quest condition now works correctly
- Fix to in-game HUD not appearing after completing the Build a creature on-boarding quest
- Fixed input glitches that were occurring in the Creature Builder

Behold! The miracle of life packed into cubes. CHKN is an open world sandbox game where life itself is your strongest tool. Bring creatures to life by assembling them from body parts, each packed with its own special sauce. Cook up whatever creatures you want and don’t be surprised if your creation has a mind of its own. With Creative, Adventure, and Multiplayer modes, there is an abomination for everyone.

KEY FEATURES

Unique AI (aka the Special Sauce): You have the power to bring creatures to life by slapping blocks together, in whatever shape, size, or combination you want. These blocks of intelligent life give your creature unique personalities based on the combinations you make. No two creatures are alike...unless you make them alike. In which case, an egg will pop out of one of them. Even if it’s a cat. Because SCIENCE.
Creature Interaction. Creatures have all the feels and they’re not afraid to express them. Sad eyebrows? Your creature might be lonely. Happy smiles and farts? Your creature loves you for feeding them hamburgers. If a creature is snarling and running at you, then it’s probably too late - you’re dead.
Survival Tactics: You and your creature are starving to death. Do you feed your creature the last of your apples? Or do you cook your creature into a burger to feed yourself!?? Too much? OK.
Creatures will work better than tools at collecting resources and protecting your homestead. They’re better at fighting and cutting down trees than you are, so you’ll definitely want them on your side.
BUILD ALL THE THINGS!: Build a house! Build a farm! Build a three-headed, five-footed, llama-rantula-pus! With your creatures’ help, break apart your surroundings to craft tools and structures. Craft beds made of chicken parts and farm the land in order to survive and thrive.
Adventure, Creative and Multiplayer Modes. Modes on modes on modes.
Burps and farts. Need we say more?

DISCLAIMER

This is an Early Access game, which means it’s a little chick growing with every build. Remember raising them in school? Well, we’re that little chick under the heat lamps, confused about why we’re standing in sawdust with kids staring down at us.
But seriously. We’re just beginning with CHKN and we want you along for the ride. It’s going to be crazy and weird, but we’re going to involve you in any way possible, whether it’s asking for advice, testing out new features, or just showing us your ridiculous creations! We love hearing from you guys. Team CHKN is just a tweet, email, comment, or a very loud scream away. There will be bugs and there will be issues. Keep that in mind before you play.

FUTURE ROADMAP:

Additional creatures; dragon, goat, sheep, llama and many more.
Added abilities; flying, poison, fire breathing.
Improved AI; dogs can guard houses, ants can follow scents, etc.
Improved Multiplayer Mode.

Much larger world, with additional biomes and points of interest.
