Softlocked D:

[Dakota]

I love this game sm and it's really cute. Other than a few of the clothes sleeves not working right, the only other bug i encountered is this one where i get soft locked. It's after you gather resources and unlock a recipe with Adi, I unlocked the Salad from the Chef tree. Once I went inside the shop and opened the crafting menu, and I couldn't craft it. I was missing a few plants, but I couldn't close the menu to back out as it was a tutorial bit. Unfortunately this means the Dino I spent ages tryna customise and colour just right will be deleted because I can't back out without quitting the game :[

I understand It's a demo so I was expecting something like this sooner or later, just thought to bring it to someones attention :P

Edit: Got out of that soft lock by crafting fibre, only to get re-stuck because I couldn't stock said fibre. Sad times </3

I also got soft-locked in the shop. I only crafted one item, but the game requires you to place down two items. I can't back out to craft a second item, so I'm stuck. Definitely something to fix before the full release!

[JustMeganOkay]

i had the same issue with only crafting one item and not being able to progress 😭

Very nearly encountered this issue, but managed to craft and stock a brick and plank. Would love to see the resource gathering requirements adjusted to meet the demands of those first recipe options!

I managed to get soft locked when haggling would let me accept any offers for the scratchy stone.

[Catchunks]

Same issue, I chose to do the scratcher but I didn't have bones to use to craft it

Hey all! Thanks for reporting these softlock issues- I'll pass these bugs back to the team working on Amber Isle to investigate this. As Amber Isle is still in development, bugs in the demo like this may crop up, but this feedback is so valuable to the team! 🧡

If you run into any other issues, please let us know either through steam or on our Discord server: https://discord.gg/amberisle

Thank you again for the feedback here and helping Amber Isle be the best game it can be! ✨

I got stuck in the crafting menu and the esc key just doesn't work. I can do everything but leave the menu.

If you quit and restart and there's a yellow circle with Adi next to it at the counter, dontour best to ignore it.
I interacted with it, which restarted the first day tutorial, and even if I follow through with it, I think it soft locked me inside of the store since it made the day too late to continue with other tutorial stuff, trapping me in the shop.

The thing that really annoys me about the soft-locks is that it's in the tutorial area: the area that should have the MOST tests run on it out of the entire game. Also, nowhere does it say that Amber Isle is a demo or that it's even in early access; the game looks like it's a ready-to-play release.

I am also soft-locked (known bug) as it won't let me customise the shop.

The strange thing is, I'm pretty sure my tutorial looped itself first because I saw the exact same conversations and even customised my shop already (changed floor and wall) and now it asked for me to do it again but the option doesn't appear.

Also had the tutorial loop, had the Maple haggle tutorial twice. I then got soft-locked with the tutorial for customizing the shop when it wants me to add more spots to put items for sale..... but it's evening so I can't access any option other than changing prices.
