Hey there, Tamers! We just reached 2.000.000 accounts on Temtem, which is an impossibly big number for us to fathom! As we achieve this milestone, we think it’s a great time to reflect on patch 1.8, which was the last big planned patch for Temtem and such an important milestone for us to reach, as well.

The focus on patch 1.8 was to make Temtem more enjoyable in a more casual way, putting aside our long-held fears that having things become too easy would destroy or make impossible a proper, stable player economy. Screw that! We made adjustments to most gameplay areas so goals were more achievable and accessible, and most things can now be obtained in less time. We did our best to make sure the game is enjoyable, fun and kind to all the players who continue enjoying Temtem on a daily basis, and any new players who might make their way into the Archipelago.

There was hardly any area of gameplay untouched in the patch, so we recommend you give ...

• This patch will launch next Monday, and it’s not live yet! We’re sharing early patch notes because they’re safe, and we’re aware soon-to-happen community tournaments could be affected.
• The day for the Competitive Season change has been moved from 23/12 to 6/01.

• A new pop-up message has been created for the Randomlocke mode, informing you that breaking co-op during a battle w...

Hey Tamers! Amidst all the chaos of Temtem: Swarm’s free public Demo, and Temtem’s 1.8.1 patch, we still have one big surprise left: merch!!!!

One thing about Crema is that we don’t have all that much merch out, so this is a golden opportunity to grab a memento of your passage through the Archipelago! I hereby present you, he:

• We’ve added a visual indicator on the Saipark UI that lets you know when you’ve done your weekly Luma capture. This way it’ll be easier for players to know once they’ve filled their weekly limit.

The focus on this patch was to make Temtem more enjoyable in a more casual way, putting aside our long-held fears that having things become too easy would destroy or make impossible a proper, stable player economy. Screw that! We’ve made adjustments to most gameplay areas so goals are more achievable and accessible, and most things can now be obtained in less time. In this new Temtem era, the dream of having Luma and Umbra Tems will become a reality for more players, but we still tried to keep the flow of new Lumas/Umbras comprehensible. We’ve also added new measures against backtracking during the campaign, improved the ...

Hello, Tamers! Today we’re here to shed some new light on the approximate release date for patch 1.8, which has been slightly pushed to earlier than originally planned. That’s right, for once we’re not here to share a delay, but rather an advance!

Patch 1.8 will be launched in early September, even if its scheduled date was early October. We’ll be able to give you the specific day in a little time!

As many of you already know from our ...

Hi Tamers! As you might already know, at Crema we’re firm advocates and supporters of the LGBTQ+ community, and we try to abide by these beliefs in everything we do. Beyond in-game representation, which is our focal point, and making sure our office is also a safe space, we came up with Pride banners so everyone could further express themselves in Temtem!

Here is the complete list of Tamer banners based on Pride flags that we’ve included over the years, all in one comfortable place so you can easily reach them all!

...

• We have corrected the issue preventing players on consoles from making purchases with Feathers instead of Novas. All console players can now use their Feathers to purchase cosmetics, as long as they have enough Feathers for it.
  • Please do remember that the game will still prioritize using your existing Novas.

• A new batch of Pride flag banners has been added to Temtem!
  • You can redeem this new batch of fl...

Hi Tamers! Four months have finally gone by, and it’s now time for Season 7 to begin, and patch 1.7 to be deployed. Patch 1.7 is mostly focused on the removal of microtransactions, the transition from Novas to Feathers, and, of course, the Arcade Bar! It also includes one of the coolest seasons we’ve ever done, so we hope you’ll enjoy it!

Patch 1.7 will be closely followed by patch 1.7.1 so we can fix an unexpected issue that causes console players to not be able to use Feathers to purchase items from the Store, which is one of the most relevant changes in this patch. We apologize for the inconveniences, and will keep everyone updated on how 1.7.1 is doing and when it’ll be launched.

This new Season is special in many ways. We’ve been through a lot of Seasons together, and explored a chunk of cultures, color...

• KNOWN ISSUE FOR CONSOLES: You won’t be able to use Feathers to purchase items from the Store until 1.7.1.
  • This bug has been corrected for patch 1.7.1, which will be sent to certification on the very day we launch 1.7. It shouldn’t take more than two weeks to be certified and launched.
  • You will still be able to purchase the Tamer Pass with either Novas or Feathers. The bug only affects the daily and weekly Premium Store.
  • We didn’t want to postpone 1.7 any longer by re-starting the certification process, so we’ve opted for a new, quick build containing the fix, which is 1.7...

Hiya, Tamers!

Housing is such a fantastic way to display your creativity and interior-decorating skills! And boy, some of you DO have those skills. Today we’ve gathered a showcase of Tamer houses, sent in by our community, to really show how versatile and how neat your Temtem home can be. Sit and relax, we’ll walk you through it!

Hello again, Tamers! As we approach the launch date for patch 1.7, it’s time for us to share some of the content planned for it! As usual, remember this is just a preview, and we’ll go more in-depth over the features and changes in the 1.7 patch notes.

A new Season: Neon Reverie

This new Season is special in so many ways. We’ve been through a lot of Seasons together, and explored a chunk of cultures, colors and themes hand in hand! Now, under sparkling neon lights, we reach Temtem’s last Season. It’s a moment filled with sadness, nostalgia, and tenderness towards all the Seasons we’ve discovered and enjoy! To close it off on the best note possible, this Season’s theme is pop culture, urban lifestyle and a tiny pinch of well-intentioned weebness. This wonderful mix of traditional and modern flowers in Cipanku, especially in Neoedo. Enjoy the latest trends or experience burning nostalgia in a vivid array of colors!

Welcome, Tamers, to the first-ever in-depth Meet the Team, where you get to know more about the devs working on Temtem and Temtem: Swarm! We plan to hold these little segments from time to time, so everyone can become more familiar with the Crema devs, and get to see the people they are behind the game.

On this occasion we sit with the VFX team, which consists of Kees Klop, Alberto Abanses, and Mario Belén, to chat about their day to day, their favorite work of theirs, their road in Crema, and some quirky questions so we can get a deeper look into who they are. Let’s begin!

Kees Klop

Hello, Tamers! We’re here to share with you an open letter to the community, and to reach out to you.

We’ve been listening to you for a long time, and we are aware of your concerns and worries. Over the past few weeks we’ve seen an uptick in the community expression of unhappiness and doubt following the lead-up to, and the announcement of Temtem: Swarm. We’ve been listening to and taking in that feedback, processing it internally, and we think it’s time we have an open chat with you addressing all of it.

With this open letter we want to try and answer the most recent, pressing questions, to shed some light on the future of both Temtem and our studio, and to offer a bit more insight into our development decisions, learnings, and the upcoming path.

This will be a long post, as we wanted to be thorough in answering your questions and provide context for our decisions. We also recognize we’ve made mistakes in the past an...

Welcome Tamers to the awaited Season renewal and patch launch day! The slight chill in the air has now turned into a full-blown blizzard, and we remember the old glacial times: welcome to Frozen Tales and Patch 1.6!

A new icy season

Baby, it’s cold out there! Frozen Tales will take you back in time to a long lost era when primeval humans and Temtem roamed a bare Archipelago. Prepare to connect with ancestral deities and to walk in old footsteps! As always, this new Season comes with a new Tamer Pass, new Premium and Regular cosmetics, and a new competitive Season.

Hey Tamers! It’s now been over a month since the TemCS ended, and we’re here to walk through how it’s been for us, review its performance, and talk about its future. Since the TemCS and the Showdown Standalone client had a lot of common ground, we’ll be talking about the future for the Standalone version as well, plus some other tidbits here and there you might want to know about. Be warned that this is a very long post!

Highlighted Changes

Temtem

• #065 – Hedgine 
  • Binary Flood has been removed from its move pool.
  • Token has been added to its move pool.
  • Hedgine is one of the strongest digitals in the format thanks to its Gotta Go Fast Trait .This is why we’ve decided to remove the move that we think is the most problematic in the Hedgine kit, and we will keep watch on it and its trait to see if it needs to be adjusted for 1.6.

•  #131 – Tukai
  • Noxious Bomb has been maintained in its move pool as a TC.
  • One of the most talked-about topics in the Tuwai line has been the Noxious Bomb tech. We have considered the feedback provided and have decided to remove this tech from the entire...
