Solace Crafting – Press Kit – Solace Crafting

Description

Solace Crafting is a relaxed open-world RPG allowing infinite travel in all directions. As you explore, monsters and resources will increase their difficulty at a rate of one level per kilometer (0.6 miles) from the start. You’ll need a base with refining and crafting facilities to craft proper equipment to push into increasingly difficult content, build your own fast travel network, and seek out rare materials.

History

Fueled from a passion of procedural exploration games like Minecraft, Empyrion – Galactic Survival, and 7 Days to Die, Solace Crafting attempts to expand the concept of procedural infinite gameplay from the environment to the players themselves, boasting uncapped player and material level scaling. Rather than reaching an “end-game” or a level cap, players are allowed to continue leveling as far as they want, continuing their legacy solo or with friends via online and LAN co-op.
