Under A Rock – January 2026 Developer Update
The development team behind Under a Rock has spent the past few months expanding and polishing the game's core pillars, laying the groundwork for long-term progression and emergent play.
- Procedural World Evolution: Expanded world generation with new "epics," improved starter crash sites, richer biomes, and more intentional structure, making exploration feel distinct and purposeful across regions.
- Caves, Oceans, & Lakes: Major content and technical upgrades to caves (new modules, creatures, underground resources), a full underwater visual overhaul, swimmable lakes, and early implementation of underwater combat and pathfinding.
- Base Building & Blueprint System: New crafting and construction stations, plus a fully implemented Blueprint system that allows players to capture, share, cloud-sync, and redeploy bases with color-coding and decoration previews.
- Research, Cataloging, & Journaling: The first phase of a deeper discovery loop, turning exploration into structured progress through researchable Creatura and Materia entries that expand the in-game Journal over time.
- Combat, Animation, & Balance Improvements: Refined combat timings, clearer visual feedback, new weapons (including cursed variants), improved parries, rebalanced creature tiers, animation polish, and preliminary steps toward underwater combat.
- Environmental Hazards & Survival Systems: New fire and drowning mechanics with clearer warning and damage phases, reinforcing environmental awareness and preparation.
