• Devlog #3 - Automation, Resources & The Road to Release - 13 August 2026

  Greetings, civilians of our lovely planet!There’s more than one way to save the islands.In Island Keeper, your goal is simple: clean up the archipelago and stop an environmental disaster. But how do you do it? That’s entirely up to you.Explore, collect, build, automate, and experiment with different systems to find your own way of restoring the islands.The game offers a variety of tools and systems so you can restore the islands your way. You might focus on exploring, try out different mechanics, set up your own resource networks, or just look for ways to make things easier. Automation is a big part of this freedom. Special stations let you hand off repetitive tasks to robots and drones, so they can collect trash, transport, and process resources for you.

The demo showed just a small part of the world you’ll get to explore in the full game.While Island Keeper has some simulation features, it’s mainly an adventure game focused on exploration.

Lately, we’ve been focusing on adding more underwater content.Underwater WorldIn the demo, the underwater world was pretty basic, and you could finish the game without diving much. In the full version, exploring underwater will be a big part of the adventure. It will offer a unique experience while keepi…
