Craftomation 101 Leaves Early Access on September 14!
Hello mates!
Big news from the workshop today — actually, this might be the biggest news since we landed on this snowy planet.
Craftomation 101 leaves Early Access on September 14!
After two and a half years in Early Access, almost 40 updates, arrays, functions, new maps, new blocks, and thousands of robots doing things their creators definitely did not program them to do, Craftomation 101 will reach its full release on September 14, 2026.
We could not have built this game without you. Every save file, bug report, suggestion, and “my robot walked into the fire again” screenshot helped shape the release version.
Thank you, mates. Seriously.
The price is going up — here’s the honest part
With the full release, Craftomation 101 is growing up a little — and so is its price. On August 10, the price will increase from $9.99 to $14.99.
We want to be open about this before it happens. Steam does not allow us to run a discount within 30 days of a price increase, so we are changing the price ahead of time. This will let us welcome the full release with a proper launch discount while giving everyone fair warning about the new price.
What does this mean for you?
- Already own the game? Nothing changes. You will receive the full release and every future update at no extra cost. You believed in tiny programmable robots early, so you got the best deal of all.
- Thinking about buying it? The game will remain $9.99 until August 10. This is the last chance to get Craftomation 101 at its Early Access price.
- Waiting for the full release? Add the game to your wishlist, and Steam will notify you when version 1.0 arrives on September 14, together with the launch discount.
What will be in the release version?
We are keeping a few surprises inside the crate until the release announcement.
For now, the final stretch is focused on the major features we have been testing with our brave beta mates, along with polish, performance improvements, bug fixes, and quality-of-life changes across the whole game.
Your reports, saves, screenshots, and suggestions have already helped us find plenty of strange robot behaviour. Please keep them coming.
Closed pre-release testing is still open for anyone who wants an early look:

Bugs may happen in the testing version — that is why we need brave mates with strong nerves and a healthy tolerance for confused robots.
See you at the release. The robots are almost ready.
The robots are never truly ready, of course. But we love them anyway.
