Beastkeepers news & patch notes

Hey everyone! 👋

We’re incredibly excited to announce that Beastkeepers is officially out now on Steam! After countless late nights, intense playtesting, and more than a few breeding experiments that got way out of hand, our small family team is thrilled to finally release our game into the world.

You can grab it now for just $5.99, with a 20% launch discount for a limited time.

Beastkeepers is a blend of everything we love as players: the satisfying loop of idle games, the deep joy of creature collection, and the strategic thrill of training the perfect team. We’ve designed the game to be relaxing to walk away from but engaging to dive into, where every coin you earn brings you one step closer to building the ultimate beastiary.

Here’s what awaits you in the wilds:

• Breed and Train Unique Creatures: Nurture and evolve your creatures into powerful beasts ready for combat. Each creature has its own set of abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Unlock new creatures as you progress!

• Idle Gameplay with Meaningful Progress: Beastkeepers is designed to be played even when you're not around. While you’re away, your creatures continue to fight and earn coins. Use these coins to upgrade your beasts, improve your land, and unlock new structures to automate your processes.

• Customize and Upgrade: From creature abilities to land decoration, the game allows for a deep customization experience. Place decorative structures to enhance your land and grant passive bonuses that affect your creatures’ stats.

• Battle Against Enemies: Your creatures will fight in automated battles, but you’ll need to strategically train and improve their skills to face tougher opponents. As you defeat enemies, you’ll earn coins and resources to upgrade your monsters and lands.

• Built for Endless Replayability: With dozens of creatures to unlock, endless upgrade paths, and a steady stream of tougher enemies, your taming adventure never truly ends.

• Full support in English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Spanish and Catalan.

We’re just three developers—a father and two sons—who love making games together. Beastkeepers is the culmination of that shared passion, and we’re so proud of what we’ve built. Now, we can’t wait to see the creative (and crazy) breeding strategies you come up with.

💬 If you run into any bugs, have a brilliant idea for a new creature, or just want to share your highest-earning idle setup, please reach out on the Steam forums or join our Discord. As a small team, we’re always listening and are committed to making the game the best it can be with your help.

Thanks for playing—and good luck building your ultimate beast army!

Family Devs

One of the trickiest parts of developing Beastkeepers has been finding the right balance between idle progress and active play. We want the game to feel rewarding whether you’re checking in for just a few minutes or playing for a longer session.

🔹 Feature Spotlight – Balance Philosophy

• Idle rewards should feel meaningful but not too overwhelming.

• Active play should let you make choices that speed up your progress.

• Long-term goals (like evolutions or decoration upgrades) are designed to keep you engaged over weeks, not just hours.

This balance is something we’ll keep tweaking even after launch, based on your feedback.
