Bitcraft review7/22/2023 ![]() ![]() Moreover, they have some notable investors with genuine credit in the gaming industry. However, I would not knock them too much for that as everyone has to start somewhere. Unfortunately, there is not very much to go off of in terms of past creations as BitCraft will be their first game. ![]() Whether that will be a positive or negative, only time will tell! Image courtesy of īitCraft is being developed by Clockwork Labs, a venture game studio based in California. Specifically, I’ll be discussing:īased in San Fran, Clockwork Labs' first major project is BitCraft itself. I’ve gathered as much of that information as I could and threw it into this article to try and give all of you the best idea of what BitCraft will be like in the future. The website is also full of wonderful tidbits of lore that give players a bit of background information on the game/characters motives and personality. There is a community discord server with direct access to some of the developers that give wonderful insight as to how the game will turn out. That being said, there is still plenty to go off of to speculate how the game will play, look, and feel. If you want to get a chance at access to the pre-alpha, just head over to their website and sign up. As of now, the pre-alpha has been restricted to players that have received an email and signed an NDA, thus I haven’t heard of anything about it yet. Its art style reminded me of Sky: Children of Light with gameplay similar to that of Valheim, which, if combined correctly, could result in something truly beautiful. This is no different for the eventual release of BitCraft, a “massively multiplayer community sandbox game ( from their website).” I have had my eye on BitCraft ever since I saw the announcement trailer in late 2021. The game will feature crafting, farming, and city-building mechanics and will support a wide range of playstyles and job specializations.Ĭlockwork Labs has yet to announce a release date for the game but pre-alpha sign-ups are still open on the Bitcraft official site for those interested in taking it for a test run.It's always exciting having an upcoming game set to be released with promising developers, an interesting art style, and an interesting concept. Gameplay revolves around player decisions, social interactions, and cooperation over combat. After the end of Pre-Alpha testing, future tests are expected to be less restricted and allow players to share their experience with the broader community.”īitCraft is an upcoming community sandbox MMORPG where players’ actions will directly and permanently affect the game’s procedurally-generated world. It’s expected that the game may change considerably during and after Pre-Alpha testing. “The purpose of the tests is to answer specific questions about game mechanics in a controlled environment. ![]() ![]() “The goal of the Pre-Alpha is to gather unbiased first impression feedback from players and will be conducted under NDA to ensure new waves of testers will join unprejudiced,” said the team. Developer Clockwork Labs will be adding to the initial group of testers in waves, and will be sending out more invites accordingly. The playtest will last for several months with only a handful of players to start. BitCraft has officially begun pre-alpha testing, giving a small group of testers their first taste of the upcoming sandbox survival MMORPG. ![]()
