Contraption Maker

Contraption Maker released on July 7, 2014 and has received sustained post-launch development over many years, including paid DLC packs, major free content updates, and regular feature patches. The most recent major content release was the Number Blocks update on July 23, 2024, which added a new set of interacting parts and puzzles to the base game for free. The most recent developer communication of any kind was a feature patch on September 16, 2024. The store listing includes an unreleased DLC — "Mighty Knights Parts & Puzzles Pack" — with no release date. This content has been discussed in developer posts going back to at least July 2022, when the developer mentioned it needed more work before it could ship. An update in March 2023 showed active design work on the knight battle mechanics, and an October 2023 progress report noted the developer had changed how knights interact with each other and was still working through design issues. However, no update specifically addressing Mighty Knights has been posted since October 2023, and the DLC remains unlisted with no release date as of today (June 28, 2026). Given that the developer has historically posted multiple times per year and the Mighty Knights DLC has been in development for several years without a concrete ship date or recent status update, it is unclear whether this content is still actively being worked on or has been quietly shelved. The developer is a solo creator (with occasional help from his son) juggling multiple projects, which adds further uncertainty to the timeline.
