Another pretty substantial patch incoming! To stay true to the game’s name, your first crafting experience in ClickCrafter now comes even earlier! The Workshop is now the first player buildable unlocked, with the Mana Focus moving later in the game, once the need for mana on demand is greater. The game also has a new Quest Tracker to help keep you... well, on track.
Plus, ClickCrafter now has an Auto Action button! You can now play this Clicker in even more ways, depending on what you want from your incremental experience:
Click manually for the old school “clicksperience”
Press and hold to AutoClick
Hold/Toggle AutoAction to AutoClick valid targets while your cursor remains hovered over them
The UI rework continues and is just about wrapped up in this version. The Main Menu and any remaining UI screens should be updated by the Demo’s release. There are also new QoL/Accessibility settings available, with further planned (please continue to suggest any missing ones!)
It’s possible this may be the final playtest patch before the Demo is released — stay tuned for more updates! Once the Demo is released, this Playtest will continue to be the place to test the full game; so stick around if you want to try out even more content for free!
Fixed Bugs
Fix annoying bug with modal not fully closing when remapping controls
Balance / Content Changes
The Workshop now unlocks after the Windmill instead of the Mana Focus.
The Mana Focus unlocks after the first AutoMiners now; we’ll see how this makes the period before the Stone Bridge feel — if it’s too mana-tight, it’ll be tweaked again!
Some recipe requirements and costs have been adjusted as a result of this reshuffling
Quality of Life / Aesthetic Improvements
Your next major goal/quest in the game is now displayed in the top right, to help players who found the progression a bit fuzzy.
