As you likely saw on our Discord and Social Media, we've been nominated for the Impact Award this Indiecade 2022! We're beyond flattered to receive this nomination and hope that we can cinch the win!
Now for the new section that you likely clicked for; an upcoming release date!
Our Team is currently putting the finishing touches on the game, and through that we've been able to work on a soon to be released announcement trailer. This will not only show the advancement of the game since we last gave you a peek, but at the end of it you'll see our planned release date for this year!
We want to thank all of you who have kept up with it, wishlisted us and even showed up on our Discord, and we hope you'll be pleased with Common'hood when you can finally play along.

Beta Wave 2 Update
Hey friends!
Our road to release continues, and we’re thrilled to update you on the progress of Beta Wave 2.
Thanks to the efforts of our testing team, our endgame path’s grown increasingly smooth and we’re now shifting some level of focus towards balance and difficulty of the game as our endgame polish pass continues. There are still some Beta slots available, if you’re of course willing to keep what you see in it a secret for a little longer, after all we don’t want the story to be spoiled.

Got bugs or suggestions for us after trying our demo? Check our public Trello!
We've been flooded by feedback from all sides since our demo came out, thus we're trying to organize it all!
To make this easier, we have prepared a Trello board where we will be collecting the issues we see on Discord, our Steam Community and other channels, thus giving you access to see what are we working on. You will also be able to vote on what issues should be addressed first or seem more important.

Join Common'hood at the Earth Appreciation Festival!
Hi friends!
April 22 marks this year’s World Earth Day, and as you know one of the core values of Common'hood is building a society that can coexist with nature in a healthy and sustainable matter instead of simply harvesting its resources.
We are thus beyond thrilled to be part of this year's Earth Appreciation Festival on Steam! We're hoping to be introduced to many fellow environmentally conscious gamers and that through it you can also find some games that resonate with you and the message of looking after our pale blue dot.

New details about the upcoming multiplayer update!
Hello Common’hood Community!
We know it’s been a while since our last update, but we want to assure everyone that development has been healthy and active. We would like to thank our testing team on Discord for working extremely hard to ensure all players have the best experience possible when playing Common’hood. We love seeing the thriving communities that those who have already jumped into the game have built. Those of you who are still waiting patiently, we can’t wait to see your amazing creations.
As you may have read, we have been able to upgrade our capabilities, allowing us to welcome a professional QA team to our workflow. Together, we have been able to work on and fix a ton of small polish issues with the game. Delivering the best version of Common’hood to players has always been our number one priority and we hope that everyone is impressed with these changes and updates.
We are excited about the upcoming multiplayer update and wanted to give players more of an idea of what they can expect when they head into the game with their friends later this year. The first version of multiplayer that will be available to try will be an extension of our sandbox environment. It will give players the chance to build and design with their friends. No limit on materials gives players infinite possibilities. Once you’re done designing you can save your project and share it with either the Common’hood community online or in your single-player story mode.
We appreciate the support from all of those who have been keeping up with us in Discord, wishlisting the game, testing out the updates, and giving us valuable feedback. It is because of you that we are able to do this and bring Common’hood to life. Look out for even more updates coming soon!
