Stonehearth 1.1: Once Moar, With Feeling2018-12-12Hey everyone! Welcome back for one last official update to the main Stonehearth game! This year, right in time for the holidays, we celebrate you--five years of the amazing community we’ve come to know and love. Fueled by gratitude for all the things you’ve done and built in Hearth, we’ve packed the following things into our last major release, Stonehearth 1.1: See Stonehearth. See Stonehearth Run. The game runs better than ever! We’ve fixed a number of crashing bugs, optimized a wide variety of services and fixed a last few critical building bugs that have been getting your hearthlings stumped and stuck. Though not exactly a performance fix,

Release r915 now on Steam Unstable2018-12-03We’re getting close to our 1.1 release, so in this update we’re wrapping up some critical bugs, and bringing you several more quality of life improvements and small features. Bugfixes and improvements As a part of our Kickstarter promise to our Legend Tier backers, we’ve also added two new encounters to the game that were designed based on their input: the Hestia and Dragonborn encounters. Players can unlock these encounters at Tier 2. Note that they have a rare chance of occuring. Added the ability for players to emergency-unstick (teleport) your citizens a short distance when they get stuck (in buildings, on top of tall furniture, etc). Thi
Release r909 now on Steam Unstable2018-11-16We have some more bug fixes and quality of life improvements for you in this release! Bugfixes and Improvements Instabuild should now work for all structures. Fixed crafters getting stuck forever on an in-progress recipe that they no longer have the ingredients for. Fixed zoom-to-entity sometimes not zooming in correctly. Converted recipes to use Effort instead of Work Units. This should make it easier for modders to decide how long it takes to craft something (1 Effort = 1 Game Minute), but most players should not notice a difference. There were slight decreases in early crafting recipe times and slight increases in later crafting ones, and

Stonehearth is Now 1.02018-07-25Hey everyone, now that we’ve stuffed in our last few features and a ton of performance and bug fixes, our game is finally complete. Team Stonehearth is proud to announce that our cozy, quirky, and sometimes epically heroic building simulation game is finally ready to leave Early Access and go 1.0. This has been an incredibly long journey for everyone on the team, everyone who backed us during our 2013 Kickstarter, and everyone who has joined us on Steam Early Access. I think it’s safe to say that building Stonehearth turned out to be way more difficult than we all expected. For many of us, this was our first game, and the things we learned ab
