The Last Caretaker asks you to rebuild humanity on a flooded Earth. We're exploring what happens when a second caretaker joins the work.
A shared world. A shared ship. Separate hands at the helm, on the deck, and in the cargo hold.
Guest at the helm. Host aboard.
Both inside the same moving world.
Steer, move, carry, repair. Open a playtest to see the result, the capture, and how far that proof goes.
05 PLAYTESTS / CLICK TO EXPANDGuest view from the real helm during a drive using the normal game controls.
Guest view of the ship underway with the host at the helm. The passenger can keep moving as the ship turns.
One Plastic moves from the onboard Recycler into the host backpack while the guest keeps driving.
These milestones passed in separate experimental builds. They are still disabled in the installed Build67 fallback.
The guest holds the wrench on the Diesel Engine. The repair is shared, and its material cost comes from the guest.
The guest turns Main Power back on after a restart. The switch indicator and the ship's lighting update in both game views.
The shared-ship loop has real playtest proof. The next step is making those actions work together, survive a restart, and hold up through a longer journey.
Build67 remains the installed playable fallback. Guest repair, battery persistence and shared power-switch changes have separate experimental passes and still need verification together.
An earlier moved-ship checkpoint survived a full restart. A later offshore save rejected unsupported loot, and a separate restart test sent the ship back to an old position.
A test-filled tank matched on both clients and survived restart. The Diesel Engine still reports an unmet requirement; normal refuelling and consumption have not passed.
Client-only fire and a clock difference were observed. Hull damage sits outside the current module sync; the cause of the fire mismatch and weather agreement remain unresolved.
Cable items can move through shared cargo. Cable placement is still client-only, and broader world pickup needs a shared transaction before it is ready.
A fresh pair joined with the guest alive and remained connected in a short follow-up. An earlier unexplained guest death, reconnect behaviour and full campaign coverage remain open.
Join. Sail. Work together. Save. Come back.
The same world, on both screens, all the way through.
Playtests use isolated copies of saves, recorded gameplay and checks of the game's own state. The experimental milestones above were tested separately; a passing screenshot or one restart does not establish full campaign readiness.
