- Stone Rage Price Reduction - 16 December 2020
Hello, Stone Ragers! We hope your holiday season is full of cheer. We’re doing our part to spread a little joy to this season by unveiling a permanent price drop! We have listened to a lot of feedback from our players and agree that dropping the price will help more people find and enjoy our game. These are hard times, and many people don’t have the same disposable income that they once did. That has left a lot of you without friends to play with. Let’s see if we can fix that! Dropped from 19,99 USD down to 12.99 USD. https://store.steampowered.com/app/640860/Stone_Rage/ Our goal was always to listen to players feedback and we have heard your concerns regarding the frequency of major content updates that lead to server wipes. This has frustrated many of you, so we are adjusting our update schedule accordingly. We will still be releasing hotfixes as we develop them, but we will be workin…
- Stone Rage - Animal Play Patch HOTFIX - 3 December 2020
Good day everyone! We have adressed and fixed all the known bugs and needed changes from our current big animal play patch. When releasing big patches hotfixes are very likely to be needed.

- Stone Rage - Animal Play Patch - 2 December 2020
Hello Stone Ragers! We have been out on Early-Access since August 29th now and we have added quite a lot of content over the last few months and with this big patch we are introducing our USP to the game. Which is the summoning of animals via totems and being able to control and play as deadly creatures such as the saber-toothed tiger or the mighty mammoth. What do you need in order to play an animal in the world of Stone Rage? First of all you'll need to set foot into the world and perhaps build your shelter somewhere safe from intruders. Craft your totems and stone circles and place them close to each other and then gather the needed ingredients to summon an animal and to shape-shift into the beast. We have added several abilities and game balance preventions tied to stamina to prevent overpowered animals. You're not invincible while playing as an animal! You can still die so make sur…

- Stone Rage - Announcing Playable Animals! - 23 November 2020
The animal play is live on the test servers. Every player gets some default items on spawn (weapons, bag, totem). To use the totem, you will have to place a totem and a stone circle close to each other. Interacting with the totem lets you start the summoning process. Every animal will have different requirements for their spawn. Once everything is in place, you can summon your animal. It will appear in the stone circle while your human character goes into a praying state. You're not invincible while playing as an animal! You can still die so make sure to defend yourself beforehand. Playing as animal tied to a certain time limit. If that expires, your animal will disappear and you return to your human form. You can break the link early. In this case, your animal will enter a sleep state and you can control your human character. Craft costs and other recipes to spawn as an animal are subj…

Hello, Stone Ragers! One week after our big halloween content patch we are releasing yet another big content patch named "The cave patch". With this patch we are including the first pass on caves which are exporable on the map. We have also revamped all crafting recipes, and items to give everything a bit more logic.

- StoneRage - Halloween Update! - 28 October 2020
Hello, Stone Ragers! With Halloween right around the corner, we’re happy to announce another big content patch! We’ve been toiling away this month on bug fixes and new features that we can’t wait to get your feedback on. While October has been heavily focused on Halloween content, finetuning our crafting system, and our new repair system, November will be all about animals! This will include implementing the core work necessary for playing as animals. We'll also be adding more diversity to spawned animals who will roam and live in the world of Stone Rage. We have a lot planned to keep players engaged as we add even more features. The performance of Stone Rage has been great with reliable framerates and stable servers, now it's time to add content and make the game more unique in its own way. Head over to our roadmap and milestones to check out what we have planned for you in the coming…
- StoneRage - Decay System Hotfix - 2 October 2020
Hello, Stone Ragers! You guys have done great work helping us gather bug reports and critiques for our last patch, so we’ve got a hotfix for you! We received a lot of amazing feedback regarding our new decay system and are making some adjustments. For now, decay will not initialize until you have been inactive (offline) for 2 days. Otherwise, it still works as originally designed, one tick per hour, consuming one of each required material. Remember to keep your structures in range of the decay station! We are hoping that this will make the decay system less of a chore and more of an intuitive feature that will help give players purpose and prevent inactive bases from accumulating. There will be a full server wipe with this patch to fully implement the changes below. Your continued support and feedback are what makes Stone Rage possible. Thank you, and Rage on! Decay System Hotfix: Decay…
- StoneRage - Decay Content Update 0.3.2 - 27 September 2020
Hello, Stone Ragers! We’re happy to announce our second content update for Stone Rage. Our first month went great, we put great effort into this update, but there's surely lots more work to be done to make the game a long-lasting experience! Here’s a little highlight of the most important changes: Construction Decay System Damaged Constructions Visuals Constructions with stairs Construction placement Visual Feedback The design goal behind the Decay System is to prevent the world from overbuilding. It also challenges the players to look out for their home. This is the first implementation of the system and it will be improved further as new patches are rolling out. As the constructions are getting more and more damaged, the wear will show. They visually become more and more broken too. We also added special foundations and floors with stairs attached to them. This way it’s both easier to…
- Stone Rage price reduced! - 18 September 2020
Stone Rage price reduced! We have heard you and listened to your feedback about Stone Rage. Though we have been completely transparent about our stage in Early-Access, we understand that our original pricing reflected our ambitions more than our current state. With that in mind, we have reduced the price of Stone Rage. We believe that our current pricing is more in line with what our players have come to expect from Early-Access titles. As we continue to develop the game, we hope to put out a product that is worth every hard-earned penny and more. In the meantime, we need your help to make sure Stone Rage shapes up to be the kind of game you love, now and for years to come! Keep engaging with us on Discord and be sure to leave a review on Steam to let us and others know what you think!

- StoneRage - Sulphur Content Update 0.3.1 - 4 September 2020
Hello, Stone Ragers! We’re happy to announce our first minor content update for Stone Rage. Our first week went great, but it wasn’t without its ups and downs. Early-Release is always a gamble since you are asking players to take a harsh look at an unfinished project. We stand by our decision to release this way and this week has proven how important that decision was. The feedback and suggestions we have gotten from the community have been amazing and we are incredibly proud to continue developing this game for such an involved player base. Many of you have contributed heavily over on our Discord and a ton of your suggestions have made it on to our Trello. We hope that you will continue to provide us with your thoughts as we move forward. If you’re not on our Discord, we encourage you to join! This update is a big step for us, and we will be rolling out more large content patches every…
