- Crashlands franchise: Look at week 1 of the sequel's launch & the plushiest Flux - 17 April 2025
Hey there, my favorite Pen Pal (Keyboard Pal?)! We got Crashlands 2 out the door a week ago, so it's time for an update on how that went and what comes next. Week 1 of Crashlands 2 The game really exploded out of the gate, climbing to the top of nearly every chart. We hit a peak concurrency of 8500 players, with 1000 reviews, all just on Steam! For a moment there we were even ahead of the mega-hit Blue Prince (a huge congrats to that team for their stellar launch). Things went fairly smoothly, with only one significant bug falling through the cracks (which we got fixed up a day after launch). Well, and also on Saturday morning our servers totally fell over. I was looking around like, "Who let this happen!?" and then remembered that I'm the only web developer on the team. WHOOPS. That's on me. Otherwise we've just been handling an absolute flood of feedback, trying to sort out bugs versu…
- Crashlands' sequel is out NOW! - 10 April 2025
I've been waiting to say this for FOUR HUNDRED YEARS: Crashlands 2 is OUT!!! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1401730/ Cue the air horns! Release the doves! Fire the cannons! (But not at the doves!) What a journey it's been. The original Crashlands came out in 2016 (9 years ago!), and we've spent nearly the last 5 years working on the sequel. We've put all of our blood (ow!), sweat (ew!), and tears (dew!) into this thing, and I'm incredibly proud of what we've made with our tiny little team of desiccated husks. I hope you love it as much as we do! We've already got some great early reviews and previews. I'll just plop my favorites here: Vice calls it "a Crafting/Survival Masterclass" in a review that’s so glowing it made me blush! Hardcore Gamer calls it "a crazy-fun adventure featuring a pair of ridiculously likable characters, set in a world that's usually bursting with humor but is…
- Crashlands' sequel is 2 weeks away! - 28 March 2025
Oh hey there, youngster! People say that time moves faster and faster as you age. My last Ballyhoo marked 4 weeks to the Crashlands 2 launch, and I was so excited about how close that was. The blink of an eye! But 4 weeks was still an eternity for the youths, who only rolled their eyes and yelled, "That might as well be next century, old man!" as they vaped off into the sunset. But now we're only 2 weeks away, which is truly Soon™ no matter how old you are! I think? As the launch approaches, I've been feeling rather nostalgic about the original Crashlands and how far we've come with Crashlands 2. So this issue of the Ballyhoo is a little journey down memory lane. https://i.imgur.com/cwj7xOB.jpg Crashlands 1 Back in 2016 my two brothers and I launched the original Crashlands. It was our first game that paid any bills and is still the game we're best known for all these years later. It's…
- Crashlands' sequel is 3 weeks away! - 20 March 2025
Crashlands 2 comes out on April 10, which is merely 3 weeks away. I want to take a moment from the million wrap-up tasks we have left to give you an update. The most important update is that we're on track for our release date and don't expect any delays! 🧪 Beta Test Wrapped We'd filtered 900 applicants down to 100 testers, and gave them three weeks to play as much as they could. Three weeks isn't very long for a game of this size but our intrepid testers put in an impressive effort, and a surprising number made it all the way to the end! We got so much great feedback, and we used it to make tons of fixes and improvements. Some fun stats from the beta: 100 testers 360 Pets Hatched 470 Pet Embiggenings 3,900 Player "Deaths" 45,600 Consumables Consumed 86,800 Items Crafted 2,045 Total hours played 20 Hour Average Playtime 95 Hour Top Playtime (that's 30 hours per week!)

- Crashlands' sequel gets a release date! - 15 January 2025
We finally did it! Crashlands 2 has a release date: April 10 at 10AM PT / 5PM UTC And that means it's time for some REVEALS, via a shiny new trailer. We've kept stuff super secret during the past, uh, 4.5 years of development, since everything was changing all the time. But NO MORE! Gaze upon our secrets! One last thing: we'll be running a closed beta test to catch any final issues shortly before launch. If you want to join our limited pool of beta testers, throw your hat in the ring by filling out this form. Okay, now off we go to do the ONE TRILLION remaining things to get this game wrapped up! 💖 Gettin' Those Packages Delivered, The Bscotch Team
- 2024 Bscotch Wrapped - 12 December 2024
Hello, fellow time traveler! The new year is nigh, so it's time for me to pop my head up, blink a few times, then ask, "... what... year... is it?" and try to figure out what's happened since 2023. A lot, it turns out! Crashlands 2 https://i.imgur.com/S9F0ZFd.jpg The biggest thing for 2024 was, of course, Crashlands 2 becoming nearly complete. Back when we announced the game in 2023 we thought we'd have it done by the end of this year. We were optimistic on that front, but not for lack of trying! To give you an idea of just how hard we've been working over the past year: 🎨 We added 700 new art assets to the game, consisting of 2200 parts (animated elements, animation frames, variants, etc). We had to add a whole new artist to the team to make this happen! 📚 We added 80,000 words to the game's text (quests, item descriptions, etc), bringing the total to 130,000. That's like... two nove…
- Crashlands? More like Cozylands! - 25 October 2024
Hey there, fellow adventurer! https://i.imgur.com/4k9xEwy.jpg Welcome to the latest edition of the Bscotch Ballyhoo Newsletter. This time it's all about the cozier side of Crashlands 2, plus an update to our release window. Let's get into it. Crashlands, but make it Cozy While Crashlands is an action-adventure game at its core, it has all kinds of cozy/wholesome elements: pets, farming, fishing, home-building & decor, and a delightfully weird cast of characters to befriend. https://i.imgur.com/RIPQADt.jpg In the sequel, we wanted to let players relax more deeply into the cozy side of the game, so we made all of those features more satisfying so that you can really lean into them. And we've got a new trailer to let you experience that vibe right now! Yeah, there's still a lot of combat in Crashlands 2. But we've also expanded the combat styles so that you can stay a bit more removed from…

The combat fell flat over time and player choice started feeling a bit sparse. After a long look in the mirror we realized that we already had all the wispy design strands necessary to get maximum fun-coverage... we just needed to comb them into alignment. SO THAT’S WHAT WE’RE DOIN’! The COMBOver Patch features an overhaul of combat with 36 new weapons and a brand new COMBO system, plus new unlockables like the Hardcore game mode in which you can only die once, the Creative mode for those who like building magnificent bases or turning their maps into pixel art, and new achievements!

- Crashlands launches on Linux (Ubuntu + SteamOS) - 18 December 2017
https://i.imgur.com/t1W56AF.png Heyoooo! We're happy to announce that after months of bug-squashing in Beta, Crashlands now officially supports Linux! Our brave testers experienced it all, from bugged HTTP functions and dropped scrolling controls to UI's that appeared whenever they freakin' felt like it! Just look at this overlayed mess: https://i.imgur.com/K6G8myB.png We'd like to say a big thanks to those Linux testers who paved the way for today's launch. While this build was more complicated than we anticipated, it really showed us the patience and warmth of the Linux gaming community. So, without further ado, Put some Flux in your Tux and have a great holiday! Stay frosty, Sam P.S. - We'll be destroying any new bugs in the days and weeks to come. Feel free to join other Linux users in the Crashlands Linux discord and let us know if anything is broke! (https://discord.gg/GXZQsh4)
