Intermission - Animated Short, Twitch Drops and More.May 2, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHey everybody. Today we are releasing our first "Intermission". Intermissions will take place roughly halfway between major updates and will generally not contain any game content. Allowing the team a little longer to cook up the beta of the next big update. For the first Intermission in the 2024 roadmap, we have an animated short, a new login bonus, a new Twitch drop, some new vignettes have been added and we have added some old Twitch Drops into Klei Rewards. Don't Starve Together Animated Short: Projector Who is the man behind the mysterious machinations that have been keeping our Survivors so busy as of late? Wagstaff was not always the successful industrialist he is now, but even back then he knew one thing to be true: who you really are is not nearly as important as the version of yourself that you project out to the world. Login Bonus {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6835324/fe4b19bb03b0ff23a836fba8769f3341eac38bf0.png The “Scalloped Fishing Rod” is now available for a limited-time login reward.

Designed by Rafał Pieczyński—lead developer of the highly acclaimed and multi-award-winning Frostpunk:The Board Game, with narrative direction by Jakub Wiśniewski—known for his work on This War Of Mine and Frostpunk:The Board Game—and Natanel Vo-Apfel of Into The Outside: Prelude fame, Don't Starve: The Board Game transports 1-4 players into the unrelenting, randomly generated nightmare world of the Constant, a distant and ominous realm where magic and science intertwine in ways better left unspoken. Pitched against the elements and a grim pantheon of baddies, the players assume the roles of iconic characters from the video game, having to work closely together and use their wits to outsmart fate, strive for subsistence and simply stay alive. With its mechanics highlighting player choice, dynamic combat, and open-world exploration in night and day conditions, Don't Starve: The Board Game is bound to transcend to unexplored levels of immersion, with its visual design fully embracing the unique, whimsical art style long cherished by fans of the series. The game will be made available through a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that is expected to fully utilize the creative potential of the source material, with a wealth of content offered via expansions, add-ons and future retail releases. We've been working closely with the team over at Glass Cannon Unplugged to help them create a truly interesting and fresh tabletop game but also very much Don't Starve, and we think you're all going to love it. Subscribe to the Kickstarter preview page if you want to stay on top of the project. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/glasscannonunplugged/dont-starve-the-board-game?ref=2wl0wx And that's all for now!

Roadmap 2024Jan 31, 2024 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6835324/5f92abf7fb048a0b4828a98d0789a4896cd0b2a5.png It’s Roadmap Time! NOTE: This roadmap is provided to let players know what our current plans are for the year. As a studio, we constantly re-evaluate and adjust as necessary, so this is not a guarantee of upcoming content and these plans may change. We will do our best to communicate these changes if they come along, but we try our best to see our roadmaps through to completion. 2023 Recap For 2023 our goal was to further build up systems in the game that would allow us to add challenges for existing players but also make the game a bit less opaque for new players and deliver on some common player expectations of a multiplayer game. We added skill trees for Wilson, Willow, Wigfrid, Woodie, Wolfgang and Wormwood. We added the scrapbook to help players learn more about the world and new end game content with new challenges and equipment. We also had a fun crossover event with Cult of the Lamb, finished adding shared unlocks for all platforms as well as all of our usual holiday events. We're pretty happy with the progress we have made but we went through a few pain points along the way that we want to address with this roadmap. What’s coming up? For 2024 we are going to continue these, but we have decided to change our update process for this year. We’re going to have longer periods between updates in order to have more substantial and impactful gameplay updates. We have been working toward this goal for the past several months and this roadmap is where we will start with a newer schedule. With our new schedule we will be releasing 4 major updates; each containing a mix of QOL, content and additional character updates. In between these updates we will be releasing new lore shorts, new skins and occasional news on their own just to keep things from being too quiet for too long. I think it’s important to make some clarifications here. We have been doing frequent and regular updates since Don’t Starve originally debuted on the Chrome web store in 2011. We believe the cadence of these updates has helped our games remain fresh and interesting but also helps us build strong community interest. We are pretty apprehensive about this change as we are concerned that the time between updates could slow the community down. So we will be watching closely and making adjustments as needed in the future. This isn’t a massive change, but it is a change and we think the result will be a much more enjoyable experience for players overall. It’s also worth mentioning that we have not changed staffing or output at any level of production. This is an adjustment purely for providing more comprehensive updates, not an effort to reduce or otherwise shift resources on these updates. It should be said that less frequent updates mean less update prep which should allow a bit more time working directly on each update, but I don’t want to set expectations too high here.
