Press release:
London – Tuesday, 16th July 2019 – UK-based independent game publisher, The Irregular Corporation has announced details around an upcoming “Woodwork Simulator” complete with a playable Itch.io build.
“At the Irregular Corporation, we are always looking for new ways to bring real-world passions to the world of video games and with various budding woodworkers on the team this concept was a natural fit for a potential next game.” said Stuart Morton, Publishing Director of Irregular Corporation.
“Creating the free-form nature of woodworking in videogame format is tricky work, so we decided to release an early version of the game concept for free via Itch.io to gather feedback from actual players on what they can create and what they would like to see next from the project. We can’t wait to see what people can make!”
The Itch.io pre-alpha build features the ability to follow templated build projects, as well as build whatever you can think of, in free build mode. All while protecting you from the perils of woodworking, such as dust inhalation, splinters and chiselled fingers.
Players will be able to saw, plane, lathe, chisel, glue and drill their way through build projects and finish them off with a selection of oils and paint, showcasing their work through a built-in photography system.
So whether it’s your first time picking up a saw again since you made that awful jewellery box in school for mother’s day, or you’re a woodworking expert, we would love to see what the community can build with Woodwork Simulator.
The pre-alpha build is ready to download now, for free, from https://irregularcorp.itch.io/woodwork-simulator-prototype, so jump in, get to work and show us what yew made.
