v 1.1.0.0 Experimental

A lot of time has passed since the last update. Unfortunately, I ran into some difficulties, and there was no time left to finalize the game. But now most of the problems are over, and again it's time for patches and new bugs. In the current patch, the game has been upgraded to a newer version of the game engine. This should improve fps, get rid of some annoying limitations, and add a few new bugs. With the latter, I would need help. The new patch is available as a beta version, to switch to it you need to right-click on the game in the Steam library, select the property item, then the beta version and then the open test. I will be grateful for bug reports on any new bugs, as well as long-forgotten old ones.

I highly recommend making a backup of your save files before running this version. You can find them here: Win+R and enter %LocalAppData%\\CrossWorldsEscape\\Saved\\SaveGames

And now the actual patchnots: the game has been transferred to a newer version of the game engine Slightly changed the visual component of weather effects Changed some sounds related to weather Changed lighting at night Added new weather option - thunderstorm with lightning A new building has been introduced - pillars. So far, they can be installed on foundations, other pillars and inter-storey floors. It is possible to install inter-stage floors on the pillars. Now it is possible to build larger rooms. Added fires. Inaccurate handling of fire can lead to a VERY rapidly flaring fire. To extinguish the fire, you need to go to it and press the action button - by default, E. If you have flasks with water in your inventory, then you painlessly extinguish the nearest source of fire. If there is no water, then you will burn yourself and receive damage. At this point, you can ignite most of the wooden objects you have created. NPC buildings are an exception. They use special fireproof wood. To set something on fire, it is enough to shoot a fiery arrow. Later, other options for the emergence of fires and methods of extinguishing them will be added.

CrossWorlds: Escape is a hardcore game in which you will have to deploy all your skills to survive in a huge open world that is susceptible to changes in weather, seasons and various natural phenomena. You have to start from scratch, supplying yourself with food, tools, clothing and shelter. You need to protect yourself against enemies who may turn out to be stronger than you, and you have to prepare for winter and summer. As you do all these, it would be quite good to at the same time look for a way to get out of this strange world where you happened to be against your will.

Key features:

A 64 km2 game world, which you can explore without any restrictions
Change in seasons:
Hot summer – time when you would want to be closer to the snowy peaks or at least to the cool creek

Fertile fall – the period of big travels and discoveries, a time you shouldn't forget about the coming winter

Severe winter – the time when a warm shelter with a hot fireplace and pre-readied stocks will be useful

Refurbishing spring – ready to sweep away your shelter from places perfectly coping without it for centuries

Weather phenomena:
Gentle breeze that helps you to cope with the summer heat or that turns you into an icicle in winter playfully

Long-awaited rain, which will prevent you from dying of thirst, but at the same time, will flood your shelter

Mysterious fog, which will help you to escape from the crowds of enemies, but thanks to which you will pass the desired location without finding it you have missed your destination

Soft snow that decorates everything around. The snowdrift, which you will turn into, will be quite beautiful
Various biomes willing to share their wealth ... if you can cope with their inhabitants
Enemies – both those that got trapped in this world against their will and the indigenous inhabitants with advanced intelligence, ready to call their friends to gladly kill you if they can’t do so alone. But if they can’t kill you with friends, they will play dirty tricks on you and crush your temporary shelter
A construction and crafting system you can use to acquire strength, new clothes, armor and weapons. This system will force you to visit the most remote corners of the world, destroy already endangered species, explore the dark and inhospitable caves, where you will be seen as enemy number one
Deadly creatures with immeasurable levels of strength. You will have to find or summon them, and then win them, to get out of this world. But if you don't hurry up, they may get bored and will come to you by themselves at the wrong time
Severe and deadly magic that changes the laws of nature, gives enormous power, but demands long and difficult preparation and unreasonably huge cost in exchange
A cooperative of 2 people will increase your chances of survival and successful search for a way out of the CrossWorlds
