Devlog | October 2026

Ahoy, Tinkerlanders!

We're a little late with our October devlog this time, but we have a good reason! We've been seeing so much interest in our upcoming Community Playtest that we've decided to extend registration for one more day! That's right, sign-ups will officially close exactly 24 hours after this post goes live. So if you've been thinking about joining but haven't filled out the form yet, this is your last chance!

Meanwhile, development is moving full steam ahead! We're now deep into the polishing and final testing stage of the Seas of Fortune update, making sure everything is as smooth and enjoyable as possible before it reaches your hands.

But that doesn't mean we've run out of things to show you. Quite the opposite! Here's what we've been working on throughout October.

New Island Shapes

Not all islands have to be round, right? We've been working on making the world of Tinkerlands a little more diverse. Some islands can now have different shapes instead of the familiar rounded ones, adding more variety to the landscapes you'll discover on your adventures.

Transmutation Runes

Ever wished your favorite weapon dealt a different type of damage? Well, good news!

We're introducing Transmutation Runes, which will allow you to change the damage type of any weapon. More flexibility for your favorite builds, and even more possibilities for experimenting with your equipment!

Coraline Fields Improvements

Coraline Fields is getting some extra love! The high walls in this biome now react to entities, making the environment feel more dynamic and alive.

We've also made underwater exploration a little more challenging. You'll now need to manage your oxygen while exploring beneath the surface, adding another layer to navigating this beautiful but dangerous biome.

Desert Biome Overhaul

Things are looking a little different in the desert! We've refreshed the biome with new rocks and tiles, giving its environment a much-needed visual upgrade. It's all part of our ongoing effort to make every corner of Tinkerlands feel more distinct and enjoyable to explore.

Trichroma Island

Here's another little sneak peek at Trichroma Island! We've been working on new structures for this colorful location, bringing more variety and detail to its environment. There's still plenty for you to discover when the update arrives!

New Music!

And finally, something for your ears! Our wonderful composer Sbubby has been working on new music for Tinkerlands, and the new tracks are being uploaded to their YouTube channel.

If you'd like a little taste of what's coming, grab your headphones and give it a listen!

That's All for October!

We're getting closer to the Seas of Fortune update, and we can't wait for you to finally experience everything we've been working on. Thank you for your patience, enthusiasm, and all the support you've shown us along the way!

And one last reminder: Community Playtest registration closes in just 24 hours! If you'd like to get an early look at the update and help us make it even better, don't miss your chance to sign up.

Also, our Discord community is always open for questions, feedback, discussions, and finding new co-op partners!

Enjoy your adventures in the Tinkerlands, and see you soon!
