HEY CRAB FANS - It's been a busy few months for us at Aggro Crab. We're preparing for upcoming events, tackling bugs and cooking on other projects. So let's talk about it! I'm assuming that's why you're here.


just in case you missed it - I can officially confirm that we're working on a NG+. We've been taking notes of your suggestions and are hoping to share the specifics of this update soon. We mainly want to ensure we have it locked down before making any promises - including a release date. BUT IT'S COMING!! NG+ REAL.

That's right. The Crab Shack returns! This year, we'll have demo stations of not only Another Crab's Treasure, but our previous game Going Under and the one published game under our belt... Subway Midnight!

The crab shack is also supplying some merch. Including hoodies, pins and Kril plushies! and maybe more things i kinda forgot we've been popping off with our merch game.

We know you love that little guy - While we'll have Kril plushies at PAX WEST, we do plan to restock him on LAZYDEVS[www.lazydevs.world] later this year too. For now just pretend he's on holiday or something. Hot Crab Summer.

Speaking of little guys...

we conspired with a bunch of LITTLE GUYS in WEIRD WORLDS for the ultimate STEAM GAME BUNDLE‼️

other games in the bundle include:

• Pikuniku
  
• Cult of the Lamb
  
• Astroneer
  
• Octodad
  
• The Crush House

you can yoink it up right NOW SO GO GOGO (Also The Crush House just released TODAY so this bundle is hot off the press).

Bug fixes and general stability across all platforms are still ongoing. We're actively checking bug reports on Steam and through our Discord[discord.com]. Discord is the better option for us so we can request more details and follow up with players, but we're checking both!

tHanKs fOr AsKinG - We're doing pretty well! The team is starting to lock in more on GAME 3. It's the next game on our plate that we can't really share anything about for a while. But trust that we're pretty hyped about it. As mentioned before - bug fixes and new content are still being worked on for Another Crab's Treasure. BIG THINGS. WE'RE COOKING. TRUST.

As always, Cod Speed.

PATCH V1.0.103.3 HAS BEEN PUSHED TO STEAM!

Most important change: we caved to audience pressure and you can scroll around on the Location tab now! View all the pretty art! Go nuts!


⦁ You can now move and zoom the map on the Location menu. Look at all the pretty art, go nuts!!!

⦁ Fixed multiple SFX and voice lines in Voltai's fight being played silently
⦁ Fixed multiple instances of NPCs persisting in a spot after having moved on in the story
⦁ Improvements to camera collision, especially when using Dispatch
⦁ Removed some fun visuals from the Felix Cube, as it would occasionally cause weird player physics interactions. Sad.
⦁ You can no longer use Self Repair to restore Shell Health reduced from self-inflicted damage such as Munch and Twinkle.
⦁ Removed access to Assist Settings from Title, as assist settings are saved specifically to individual save files.
⦁ Game can no longer be paused during the credits (esc key will skip them normally). This eliminates a bug where killing Kril via the pause menu during the credits could result in weird behavior.

⦁ Improved the save backup system, increasing the scenarios in which it'll replace an unusable file with a backup if available.
⦁ Eliminated a very rare scenario where a save file could show up as corrupt in the main menu despite being technically playable.

⦁ Fixed a ghost hitbox on a colossal late-game boss.

⦁ Small geometry updates to Expired Grove, Unfathom, and Bleached City
⦁ Fix geometry in Scuttleport that could lead to the player getting stuck
⦁ Fixed a content skip in Expired Grove that was a little too easy (don't believe it was useful for speedrunners, don't kill us!)
⦁ Removed floating props in Slacktide

⦁ Updated translations for "Lv" across various languages
⦁ Updated description of Rubber Band to reflect that it doesn't make you fully immune to electricity damage anymore.
⦁ Updated credits.

⦁ Stowaway Weight on Sea Cucumber Reduced from 6 to 5
⦁ A certain late-game tentacled boss's HP increased by ~14%

HELLO WHALE AND DOLPHIN ENJOYERS

So we've talked a big game on why Polluting the Ocean = Bad, and now its time for us to put our money where our mouth is. We are excited to announce that we are doing a charity sale with WDC (Whale and Dolphin Conservation) for World Ocean Day!

The WDC World Ocean Day Sale starts today and runs until 15th June, 10am PDT 2024, and you can save a fin-tastic 15% off ANOTHER CRAB'S TREASURE.

20% of our net revenue during this sale will be donated to WDC to support their conservation work... AND our funding partner Kowloon is going to match our donation!

It's important we share details on the efforts we support, so here's some more details on what WDC gets up to:

WDC, Whale and Dolphin conservation is the leading global charity dedicated to the protection and conservation of whales and dolphins.

Their expert-led teams in the UK, Europe, the Americas, and Australasia work across the whole spectrum of threats, from climate breakdown to accidental entanglements in fishing gear. They bring together, and work hand-in-hand with, businesses, philanthropists, scientists, NGOs, governments and grassroots communities to find solutions to the problems faced by whales and dolphins.
Their aim is to reverse the global decline in whale and dolphin populations by creating safe seas for these majestic creatures.

Entanglement in fishing gear, or ‘bycatch’ as it’s known, is the biggest threat whales and dolphins face. Many hundreds of thousands die in nets or get tangled up in fishing gear every year. As air-breathing mammals like us, when they get trapped in a net, panic can take over and they can sustain terrible injuries before either escaping, or suffocating. It is a massive problem and so WDC are working on some innovative solutions. 

WDC have been working across the globe to protect whales, dolphins and porpoises from dying in fishing gear:

They’re collaborating with creel fishers in Scotland to trial new types of fishing gear to reduce entanglements of humpback and minke whales.

They’re working with colleagues and partner organizations in the Central Baltic Sea to develop a recovery plan for a critically endangered group of Baltic harbor porpoises.

On the west coast of the United States, critically endangered North Atlantic right whales are facing extinction. Entanglement is a massive threat to their survival, and WDC have been working with fishers to trial alternative gear types.

In Hong Kong WDC have been supporting local community efforts and working with fishers to save the remaining 200 Indo-Pacific finless porpoises from extinction due to bycatch.

These projects are saving lives, and they are powered by inspiring people working together for the ocean.

By purchasing games from this year’s World Ocean Day sale, you will help WDC continue these vital conservation projects across the globe, as well as enable WDC’s team to embark on new efforts to bring further protections for whales and dolphins, like the Sri Lankan gillnet fisheries project:

Sri Lanka is home to many species of whales, dolphins and porpoises as well as a myriad of other sensitive marine species like sea turtles that are vulnerable to entanglement in gillnets – these are nets that hang in the water like a wall. With funding, WDC hopes to collaborate with Sri Lankan artisanal tuna fisheries that use gillnets to trial new gear types and reduce the impact their fishing has on marine life, while still enabling them to earn their living.

Whales and dolphins are awe-inspiring. They are intelligent beings, vital for the health of the ocean and planet. Together we can still help them recover and flourish and they can help us reconnect with the wild, and repair the damage we have caused.

If you missed the last steam post, the team took a week off to rest! We really appreciate everyone's understanding about us taking a break. MAN we needed it. It was heart-warming to leave with so many people telling us to have a good sleep.

We focused on self-care and reminded each other that devs should be looking after themselves. (For those claiming we need a bigger break - don't worry! The team has plans to take their own individual time off over the next few months too! We're holding them by gunpoint to take more breaks!) - Once again, thank you all for being so kind and caring for not only our crab game, but our teams well-being too.

Ok cute vibes are over let's get into it:


Now that we're back, we're jumping back into our top priority for these next few months. Those things are...


There's no official date for when specific fixes are out, but we're working our shells off to do what we can! Trust that they will be on a more regular schedule though.


From June 8th - June 15th, you'll be able to grab Another Crab's Treasure on sale as part of World Ocean Day! We're pledging 20% of the proceeds to WDC (Whale and Dolphin Conservation)[uk.whales.org] to support their mission for safer seas for Whales and Dolphins. AND AND AND, our partner Kowloon Nights[www.kowloonnights.com] is going to match our Donation. We're doing our part along with 85+ other incredible games so make sure to check it out!!!


Still the same news, but in case you haven't heard - We DO want to look into extra content for Another Crab's Treasure, just don't expect it in the next couple of months! We're still working on bug fixes and stability for all platforms so it's just gonna be a little while away <3 Don't snitch but I can confirm we are talking about it >:)

OKAY! Keep an eye out for patch notes - Reminder that console updates come a bit later than Steam, we haven't forgotten about you xoxoxo

We're still viewing the Steam Discussions, but Discord is the best place for us to track bugs and suggestions. you can join it HERE RIGHT HERE CLICK ME[discord.gg] Even if we haven't replied, we have seen your post and will do what we can to address it.

自從我們發布《蟹蟹尋寶奇遇》以來，已經過去整整一個月了。時間過得真快啊。上線至今，我們收到瞭如此多的支持和喜愛，真是感激不盡。

自從遊戲發布以來，我們一直在努力修復各種漏洞，並根據大家的回饋進行了一些體驗優化的更新——還有更多精彩內容在路上！今天我們也發布了一個新更新，幫助大家進行存檔備份。


首先，下週我們的工作室將休息一周！這意味著我們不會發布補丁或進行任何活動，因為我們要好好休息！儘管過去幾週我們已經放慢了節奏，但我們還是需要強制團隊在外面接觸一下大自然，吸收一些心藻，放鬆一周，之後才能以全新的狀態重新投入工作。


好好好－我們確實打算為《蟹蟹尋寶奇遇》增加更多內容，不過短短幾個月的製作時間肯定不夠辣！我們仍在為所有平台修復bug和提升穩定性瘋狂工作中，所以大家關心的這些還需要一點時間 <3❤️mua


我們的克里爾毛絨玩具已經完全售罄！很抱歉由於各種原因，小蟹玩偶沒有在中國區域進行銷售~我們知道現在很多人都擁有了這個小傢伙。希望你們好好對待他，不然我發誓我要──

不管怎樣，如果你錯過了這次我們官網上架的Kril玩偶，請不要擔心，它將在今年晚些時候蟹王回歸（上架）。

再次感謝大家玩我們的類殼遊戲/蟹遊。如果你們在我們休息的一周內報了任何bug，我們會在接下來的一周內處理所有的bug、建議和回饋。

這次更新的重點是存檔保護功能！我們不時會收到一些存檔損壞的報告，這些存檔的損壞往往處於這樣或那樣的原因。有些問題我們正在修復，而有些則因為硬體故障等原因難以避免。因此，我們決定先從增加備份系統著手。

如果你需要存取備份文件，可以在與你的存檔文件相同的資料夾中找到它——不過如果主存檔出現問題，遊戲會自動載入備份文件。

• 增加了存檔備份系統，以減少因存檔損壞而導致的進度遺失。這樣即使在最糟糕的情況下，大家也只會失去一個存檔點的進度，而不會失去整個存檔。
  
• 修正了在存檔清單中沒有可讀取檔案時，即使存在損壞的文件，也會顯示「新遊戲」按鈕的問題。

• 修正了遊戲後期的某個巨型怪無法正確釋放抓取的問題
  
• 現在你可以隨時對某不具名巨型怪使用「魚叉攻擊」。以前只有在他們進行特定動畫時才能使用，這對玩家來說可能不夠明確
  
• 修正了過場動畫後，揮舞錘子的攻擊會像揮舞著叉子一樣的問題
  
• 修復了敵人能夠攻擊掉落的貝殼並傷害你的問題，這在最終頭目戰中特別明顯

• 改善了羅蘭競技場的碰撞問題，並解決了穿模現象
  
• 改善了終局序列中的碰撞問題
