Customizable recipes, classes, and buildings are the heart of this "Role-Playing Game" where you're no longer just another hero with the same equipment as everyone else. In increasingly difficult boundless worlds, what combination of skills and equipment will keep you alive where other fail.

• Set enchants let you build sets to fit your character with only generic restrictions like one-handed weapon
  
• Level all professions freely, unlocking and upgrading the recipes and talents you want with no maximum levels

Love to build? Love to adventure? Love to craft? Love to push the limits? Or just play it casual?
Solace Crafting is the product of decades of the joy and misery we gamers are subject to every day.
I've been there.
I want it to be different.
It won't be perfect, but it will be sincere.
Never again do we need to see everyone using the same weapon or wearing the same armor.
Never again do we need to see a castle crumble to the ground from fussy physics.
I started out years ago specifically wanting to change the way games approach crafting and procedural content. Several years and many notebooks later it's all coming true. All I need now is your support!
Solace Crafting will be actively developed for years to come whether I have to keep my day job or not. My current goal is to somehow, someway, raise enough money or sales to quit my day job so I can actually make a dent on my gigantic todo list.

Immediate Goals:

Get a demo out to streamers, press, and Steam curators

Raise enough money to go full time via Kickstarter or Steam Sales

Spend the rest of my life developing Solace Crafting and it's descendants (unless Starfleet becomes a reality)

Continuously run events to incorporate community made icons, recipe ideas/models, enchants, buildings, etc.

Make an attempt to encourage good sportsmanship and a positive attitude amongst game communities

* Multiplayer, and all of its many features will absolutely be implemented when full-time development becomes a reality. Multiplayer will be largely PvE in structure and grief prevention/anti-cheat will be our first priority. Until then or a until a solid beta build is released, the game will remain single player.
The best is yet to come!
