Since launching Amber Isle earlier in the week, our whole team have been overwhelmed with the love, support, excitement, and enthusiasm you've shown for Amber Isle.
We've spent the past 4+ years putting our hearts & souls into Amber Isle's development, so to get to finally release it to such an amazing reception has been a dream come true. 🧡
Future Hotfix Patch Plans & Hotfix Beta Testing
Thank you for bearing with us while we've been working on the first batch of fixes for Amber Isle.
We're happy to report that we have completed work on the first emergency hotfix update (v1.0.1)! This update should address softlocks and critical bugs reported to Player Support over the past 3 days, and it introduces automatic save backups to help you restore your save in case of any future softlocks.
We're aiming to release this patch to everyone next week, but if you'd like to help us verify it's stability in the meantime, instructions for accessing the beta now are listed below.
Beta Testing for Patch v1.0.1
Beta Release: Now Available (public-testing-unstable) Full Release: Aiming for Tomorrow Evening
To access the beta release of this update, right-click Amber Isle in your steam library, going to properties, then betas, then select public-testing-unstable in the dropdown.
⚠️ While this build should be stable, this isn't guaranteed! Please back up your save before testing this build - you can find your save files in C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\LocalLow\Ambertail Games\Amber Isle
v1.0.1 Patch Notes
Current Beta Testing & Future Full Release
Fix: Accidental completion of region rating quests when loading a game.
Fix: Adi grants the player additional items when crafting for first stocking of the shop.
Fix: Quests saving in a broken state or continuing slightly as you return to the menu.
Fix: Resources now can't be collected just before talking to Maple to stop the game locking.
Fix: Player save file sometimes becoming corrupted when returning to the main menu or quitting the game.
Fix: Issues where the game allowed you to enter the meadow or open the shop during the tutorial at an incorrect time causing the player to become trapped during various quests.
Fix: Adi disappearing and not sleeping during "Where is Adi?"
Fix: Mayor grants the player additional amber during the Ambience tutorial, allowing the player to purchase the required item.
Fix: Issues where the Ambience Quest, Shop Ranking UI, and Mortgage Quest could all trigger at once locking the game.
Fix: Issue where the shop would lock because a customer wouldn't approach the counter.
Add: Save backups are now included in the save folder under a folder called "BACKUP", allowing roll back to an earlier save if needed.
We want to thank you all again for your incredible support towards Amber Isle and your patience whilst we've fixed these issues. Any support to test this v1.0.1 build would be much appreciated!

Amber Isle welcomes players to set up shop in the eponymous Amber Isle, a friendly village fit to bursting with an eclectic mix of prehistoric animals named Paleofolk, who are desperate for players to breathe new life into their community and bring their home back from the brink of fossilisation.

🦖 About Amber Isle:
Being the new owner of a failing shop is no mean feat, and once players have created their own Paleo-persona, they’ll need to roll up their sleeves and get their claws dirty as they work to maintain the shop. Players will spend their days bartering with stubborn customers, stocking shelves with everything their paleo pals might need, befriending the locals, improving the village, and exploring the surrounding areas for new items to craft, all in an attempt to convince their fellow Paleofolk to return to Amber Isle permanently.
Amber Isle Key Features:
🛍️ Open Shop: Customise, name, and run your shop your way – use the profits to unlock new shop décor, walls, floors, and more, making the space uniquely yours.
🏝️ Rebuild the Island: Rebuild, decorate, and unlock new areas to explore on Amber Isle, and with enough improvement, Paleofolk will start to take up residence on the island permanently.
👋 Meet the Neighbours: Amber Isle is home to 48 different Paleofolk to befriend, including Ice Age mammals, Permian amphibians, marine life, invertebrates, and more.
🦕 Paleo-you: Express your penchant for the prehistoric and design your very own Paleofolk – change your clothes, crests, and colours, to create your perfect paleo-persona.
We hope you are excited for our release on October 10th! 👋

About Amber Isle
Whittled down to its last remaining residents, Amber Isle has well and truly seen better days, and a last-ditch effort to save it sees the grumpy iguanodon Mayor Clawsworth cast a keen yet cynical eye over the new venture, hopeful that Amber Isle can return to its glory days.
After designing their own Paleo-character, players will adventure out into the world of Amber Isle, spending their days maintaining their shop, befriending the locals, and improving the village enough to convince other Paleofolk to return and take up residence permanently.
We hope you're enjoying our Steam Next Fest Demo! 👋
