Beta 0.24.4 - The Sun Is Setting

October 1, 2025	Beta 0.24.4	The Sun Is Setting
Sunsetting Hey everyone, Idlescape will be entering the sunsetting stage after this patch goes live. This means we'll stop accepting microtransaction purchases and move from active development to just maintenance. The game will continue running until our rented time expires on the last day of November. IS+ will be globally given to all players until the time expires and I will manually cancel further recurring payments for all existing subscriptions. Working on Idlescape and playing with you all has made for an incredible last few years, but with growing time constraints IRL and the volunteer-style team backing the game it is no longer feasible to continue supporting the game as it is. A couple weeks ago we explored the option of pushing to 1.0 once legal hurdles had been handled, but the sheer amount of work we have to do with the little time we have to do it means this year+ indefinite pre-1.0 state would keep going. Not only this, but if we did push to 1.0, the workload would only increase. The scope of the game is just excessively large for a purely volunteer team to handle without burning out. That said, with the last legal hurdles (TL;DR IP Rights) handled, there are still several avenues for Idlescape to continue, even if only spiritually. The existing codebase and assets will continue to exist so that personal projects from the team may pop up; I (Nick) will probably start tinkering with a much more limited scope game using what I've learned and made over the last few years, but I don't expect to have something playable for a while. The Discord will remain open and what we do is up to the community. I'm leaning towards keeping the main chat channels open and archiving the rest. I'm personally going to share whatever I'm up to there and to keep up with y'all and the team. I will continue to restart the server to keep it running (mostly) smoothly, as well as push any patches that the CCs prepare. Who knows what the future holds, though? Today's Patch Adjust disconnect sometimes killing sessions Fix some farming issues Fix dungeon key drop level Fix some cases of sapphire rolls in smithing

Beta 0.24.2 - New Old Management

September 18, 2025	Beta 0.24.2	New Old Management
Fixes Refactored a bunch of backend functionality that was problematic, especially related to socket message spam. This should fix a bunch of high prio issues. Yes, market is being re-enabled. Game News So as y'all have known for a long while, 1.0 / Steam have been on the horizon for over a year. The primary blocker for this hasn't been a technical one for a long time, but has been a management/legal issue (the hopefully final of many). Without going into too much detail, the company ownership was split in such a way that made finalizing things difficult, but everything is getting fully consolidated by the end of this month. This may result in some service hiccups as we have to transfer some technical things around / get new contracts setup, but I don't expect that to take more than a day (if things go smoothly). This may not immediately affect the game development, but that frees us up to do what we need to do to further the game. So, Steam Soon? It's still next up after C3.0, which is still under development. Things have been going at a steady pace for that project, but things have continued to be busy IRL which limits my time to work on it.
