What follows, is a thrilling, story driven adventure where your choices have a direct effect on how the story unfolds.

The Anniversary Edition will be available on the 22nd October on STEAM, GOG, Humble Store, and other PC digital stores. The game’s definitive edition brings tons of improvement, new content, and debuts at an original price (24,99 USD/EUR).

Since its release in October 2019, Crossroads Inn became Klabater’s best-seller, with a strong and committed community. Though the game struggled with technical issues shortly after the launch, it became a fantasy sim fans’ favorite. Starting from October 22, exactly one year after the original launch, Crossroads Inn will officially become Anniversary Edition, which will include:

• An epic campaign, Sandbox mode, and dozen of scenarios
• Pests & Puppies DLC with lovely pets and malicious pests
• The Pit DLC – open an underground basement and run all kinds of illegal activities

• Chinese language support! – Crossroads Inn turned out to be an indie hit on Chinese market and along with Anniversary Edition lands a Chinese (simplified) version of the game!

Among the most significant improvements to the base game Anniversary Edition will offer:

• New Pathfinding & AI – no more blocking on stairs, no more horses trying to reach stables through Inn’s main hall;)
• Engine Performance – A lot of performance-related issues will be eliminated by upgrading the game’s Esenthel engine to its latest version. We have joined forces with Greg Slazinski, a creator of the engine. Big thanks, Greg!
• UI & Tutorial – Crossroads Inn is not an easy game, especially for beginners. This is why devs are now working on an extensive help system that includes better UI, loads of tips available through loading screens, innkeeper journal, and in-game tutorials.

Most importantly, anyone who owns the original game will receive an Anniversary Edition upgrade for free on 22nd October!

“It is hard to believe, but Crossroads Inn was released nearly a year ago! For better or worse, we have struggled with some technical issues.” – said Patryk Pietraszkiewicz, Lead Programmer in Crossroads Inn team – “Anniversary Edition being on the way is a special moment, we have not only gathered forces for the definitive ‘quality’ battle, but we also share a lot of additional content for free with our great community. This is the right way to say thank you to so many people who supported us since launch.”

What’s more, Klabater joined forces with Greg Slazinski, a creator of the Esenthel game engine. Greg is now helping the dev team to eliminate the remaining technical issues.

“I’m impressed with the amazing and unique job Klabater team did for Crossroads Inn in Esenthel. I’m here mostly to help when it comes to final polishing and eliminating glitches here and there. This game requires some technical updates to reveal its full potential, and this is what both the devs and players would love to see.” said Greg Slazinski, developer of the Esenthel Engine.

ABOUT CROSSROADS INN

Crossroads Inn is a real-time management sim with role-playing games elements. The game consists of two unique modes offering different experiences. In Sandbox mode, gamers will focus solely on managing their business and economy – to build their very own tavern, hire and oversee staff, manage the supply chains, and create new dish recipes. In Campaign mode, micromanagement is just a prelude to a rich story as the kingdom is in turmoil, and a shift of power is expected. Your Inn will soon attract the attention of important political and military figures, who are desperately trying to hold on to the reins of power. Gamers will become part of a large-scale drama full of political intrigues, vivid characters, treacherous NPC’s and dangerous quests inspired by RPG games – You will even have a damsel in distress to save!

Face the Music, Save the Future as Starstruck: Hands of Time Heads to PlayStation in 2021

New Gameplay Trailer Revealed at Tokyo Game Show

NEW YORK CITY — 24 September, 2020 — Starstruck: Hands of Time, the genre-defying diorama musical where two kids and a giant hand race to rewrite history, will launch on PlayStation 4 in 2021 alongside the Steam for PC release.

As the future hangs in the balance, two youngsters unknowingly stand at a crossroads. Edwin, starry-eyed and bright, carries his acoustic guitar everywhere and longs for the cheers and applause his friend Dawn receives from her own concerts. For Dawn, the crowds mean nothing next to what her electric guitar offers: an escape from her overbearing mother and the weight of expectation.

Little do they know, a mysterious force called “The Mold” is about to manifest and corrupt life as they know it. And it’s up a moon colonist from the year 30XX, when all of planet Earth is consumed by The Mold, to help them stop it.

As the moon colonist, reach down into Edwin and Dawn’s charming world—literally!—with your giant, disembodied, time-traveling hand. Alter the course of history by opening new pathways for the teens and leaving your destructive mark on their charming small town. Smash obstacles, solve puzzles, and romp through a diorama styled world, guiding the two toward a new destiny: saving the world!

Throughout the time-twisting story, take up the guitar as Edwin and Dawn. Jam through an original soundtrack with dozens of songs featuring prog rock, metal, pop ballads, and more in thrilling rhythm sections. Chase higher scores in Free Play mode, featuring exclusive songs like a brand-new remix of “King of the World,” by its original composer, from fan-made hit Cognitive Dissonance. On PC, plug in the iconic Guitar Hero II RedOctane X-Plorer Controller to truly rock out, and add your favorite tracks to Free Play mode with mod support.

“No matter who you are or how you like to play, everyone should be able to experience the magic of music,” said Max Ponoroff, founder of Createdelic. “Starstruck: Hands of Time may be about two kids, a time-traveling hand, and a chatty ship computer, but more importantly, players can explore at their own pace, self-express with improv sections throughout the game, and make music by their own rules, breaking the mold.

Selected as an IndieCade 2020 festival nominee and exhibiting this week at Tokyo Game Show 2020, Starstruck: Hands of Time will launch in 2021 with both Japanese and Korean text localization. The Japanese localization comes courtesy of Ryu Ito, known for localizing AAA and indie titles like Half-Life: Alyx, Streets of Rage 4, Dead Cells, and Hollow Knight. Free Steam demo Starstruck: Prologue, recently updated with new playable songs and Free Play mode, will receive an update to support these languages before launch.

Starstruck: Hands of Time launches in 2021 on PlayStation 4 and Steam for PC. Enjoy the opening act with the free Starstruck: Prologue on Steam for PC, available now. Go backstage with developer Createdelic and get updates on the official website, Twitter, and Discord.
