Evaluation

Crafting Dead entered Steam Early Access on August 18, 2017, describing itself as being in "EARLY stages of development." The developer rebuilt the game from scratch in November 2021 (version 0.2.0) and went on to ship a steady stream of updates through 2022, including major content additions like a new map (December 2021), base building (February 2022), explosives and base repair systems (April 2022), and gameplay enhancements in November 2022 (version 0.6.0). However, November 12, 2022 was the last time the developer posted anything. There have been no patches, announcements, or communications of any kind since that date. The game remains at version 0.6.0, still in Early Access, with no 1.0 release announced. Given the previously active update cadence and the now more than three-and-a-half-year silence since November 12, 2022, it is unclear whether development is continuing. The developer has not stated that the game is complete or abandoned, but there is no evidence that work is ongoing either.
Evidence
Version 0.6.0 released with zombie AI improvements, broken leg mechanic, crafting menu tabs, and item icon performance updates. This is the last developer communication on record.

History
Crafting Dead started out as a fun little single-player mod for Minecraft. Roughly 6 months after release, around the time of The Walking Dead, the mod went multiplayer with custom servers. From there, things would never be the same. After roughly 3 successful years of development in Minecraft, a standalone was starting to brew. As the community demanded more advanced content, Minecraft was limited and a standalone was born! Here we are today!
