- News for Version 0.2.0 - 4 September 2026
Hello everyball and everycabbage! We’re back from Gamescom and here to talk all the things we saw! Also news for the upcoming update for Alabaster Dawn aaand… more CrossCode Merch! Progress and our plans for the 0.2.0 release Back in July we already mentioned that we wouldn’t quite make our initial goal of August, delaying the release to early September. Now September is here! How are things going? The good news is: we mostly finished the second dungeon: The Trial of Cryo! This includes all maps, puzzles and encounters! Here some impressions: And all things considered things went pretty fast - especially compared to our first dungeon. However, there is one important part missing: the boss fights. We’ve planned something big and as usual… things took longer than expected. Wrapping everything up will still take us a couple of weeks at least. In addition some content for the swamp is still…
- Somu’s Dream Insights & Preview - 21 August 2026
Hello everyball and everycabbage! Today we would like to take some time to talk about Somu’s Dream, the feedback we gathered, our own observations and what’s to come! General feedback for our little over-designed side quest has been generally positive and we want to thank everyone for playing and giving us feedback so far! When it comes to opinions about the mode we want to make sure to include as many players as possible so even though you might not see us comment on everything, we do read most of it (Especially in our dedicated feedback server on Discord). Now when it comes to issues players have a lot of it seem to boil down to 3 major areas: More Content / Blessings More Bosses / Challenges Damage penalty and grinding tokensLet’s go over each and talk a bit about what we plan to do about this and when these changes will release! Content Some players (correctly) argued that currently…

- SHADE Protocol Kickstarter is now live! - 5 June 2026
Hello everyball and everycabbage! Recently, we revealed that Alabaster Dawn and CrossCode are part of a collaboration with SHADE Protocol. Today, our friends at SHADE Protocol have launched their Kickstarter campaign! Link to SHADE Protocol Kickstarter SHADE Protocol is a cyber-fantasy Metroidvania with fast combat, music-based weapons, strange abilities, and worlds that can be sliced apart in very concerning ways. The Kickstarter will help the team continue developing the game, support future console porting, and make some of the more ambitious optional collaboration content possible. Some CrossCode and Alabaster Dawn inspired content is already unlocked, including secret bosses and special abilities. Other things, like guest music by our own SHIRAKUMO Nagi, new themed builds, and maybe even CrossCode / Alabaster Dawn inspired DLC content for SHADE Protocol, are possible as stretch goa…
- Alabaster Dawn x CrossCode x SHADE Protocol - 25 May 2026
Hello everyball and everycabbage! Some days ago, we teased that Alabaster Dawn and CrossCode would be part of a collaboration with another game. Today we can finally reveal what that game is: It is... SHADE Protocol! For those who have not seen it yet, SHADE Protocol is an upcoming cyber-fantasy Metroidvania with fast combat, stylish abilities, and a wild world-cutting mechanic that lets you slice and reshape parts of the environment. What caught our attention is that the team seems to care about many of the same things we do: expressive combat, secrets, ambitious pixel art worlds, and game systems that can get a little bit ridiculous in the best way. So yes... mystery solved! Together, CrossCode, Alabaster Dawn, and SHADE Protocol are planning a crossover collaboration with content in both SHADE Protocol and Alabaster Dawn. And all of it is being planned carefully so it does not interr…
- Roadmap and Milestone 0.2.0 - 21 May 2026
Hello everycabbage, It has been about 2 weeks since EarlyAccess officially started with version 0.1.0 and the feedback, at about 1.5k reviews, has been (almost) Overwhelmingly Positive. We’re incredible grateful for so many people joining Early Access at this early stage! And with how things have started, we’re confident that we can develop the game to its full potential! Thank you so much! And of course, we also received a lot of bug reports and feature requests. By now, most critical issues should hopefully be fixed and we’ll keep track of requested features as well to determine which can make it into the game. We’re now at a point where we will focus on expanding the game and adding new content, so let’s talk more about that! Development Roadmap It’s time to share our roadmap for the remaining development of Alabaster Dawn We currently plan with 8 major updates until the game will re…

- Hotfix 0.1.0-5 - 8 May 2026
Steam Cloud Sync Issues Fixed This Hotfix adds a fix for the Steam Cloud Save Synchronization issue on Linux. When loading the Linux version the game will now convert save files in a way so they are correctly synced with other Linux installations and on Windows. When the game has been played on Linux as well as other systems, the conversion will attempt to always keep the newest save in case both versions used the same save slot. If the conversion leads to you losing saves, please let us know in the bug report forum. Other Changes * Several crashes fixed * Evil Frumato near teleporter leading to crashes as been unrooted * Some mapping detail added * Lots of typos corrected
