We could spend all day listing the ways in which we’re grateful for our community, but our community manager
1. Your Honesty
It’s no secret that we work closely with our community when it comes to development decisions for Core Keeper. From implementing your feature requests all the way to bug fixes and balancing the game’s progression, your feedback has truly shaped the direction of the game. We really appreciate how open and willing our community is to communicate with us, and we do our best to take on board all of your suggestions so that we can build a game that you’ll love.
One thing we really admire, however, is your honesty. When something isn’t working for our community, we want to know, and we truly value the opportunity to hear both comments and criticisms of the game. Whether you’re reaching out in the Steam Discussions, commenting on Twitter, or sharing your thoughts in the Feedback and Suggestions forums on Discord, we want to say a big thank you for offering your honest opinion on Core Keeper!
2. Your Creativity
Since Core Keeper’s Early Access launch in March 2022, we’ve had the immense pleasure of getting to see just how creative our community can be. You’ve shared fan art, screenshots, music, live streams, walk-throughs, tutorials, opinion pieces, articles, reviews, and more with us over the years, and we’ve been blown away by just how much creativity you’ve put into content inspired by our game.
It’d be impossible for us to share every single piece of fan work that we love, but we wanted to take a more active approach in showing our appreciation, which is why we started our Steam Community Wrap-Ups last year! We aim to share a new one every week, highlighting what’s going on with Core Keeper and the awesome things our community has been up to, so keep an eye out.
3. Your Openness
As a game developer, you never know what your community is going to be like until it is established, and we’ve been so delighted to see how welcoming you are of each other in spaces like the Core Keeper Discord server. Many of you go out of your way to help each other and answer questions in the Steam Discussions, and we feel very lucky to have such an open community where new members are made to feel included. Of course, our fabulous moderation team has had to step in from time to time when discussions have gotten a little passionate (that’s what moderators are for after all), but we’ve genuinely been impressed by how friendly our community is for the most part! We hope you’ll continue to welcome each other as we move forward from Early Access to 1.0 and beyond.
4. Your Support
Finally, we wanted to say a big thank you for all of your support. Your kind words, positivity, and encouragement have made it an absolute joy to develop Core Keeper. It means a lot to us to have you with us on this journey, and we’re very passionate about delivering lots of awesome new content for the 1.0 version of the game. We’ve still got a handful of minor updates coming your way before we leave Early Access, including a language update (more on that soon!) and a summer update too.
Until then, we want to wish you all a happy Valentine’s Day for tomorrow and remind you that seasonal events can be enjoyed at any time of year, toggled, or switched off completely from the Gameplay Settings menu. Okay, we’ll stop being soppy now and get back to dev work!
