Raft

Raft floated into StreamerHouse in 2022, hitting 330 peak viewers for Redbeet Interactive's ocean survival crafting game that graduated from itch.io prototype to full release. After years in Early Access, the Final Chapter update launched in 2022 as developers' "most ambitious" and "biggest update ever," bringing voice acting, new destinations, trading, and story conclusion to the buoyant mansion-building experience. StreamerHouse sessions showcased 1-8 player co-op (online or local) battling to survive across a vast sea—hooking debris, building floating bases, farming crops, and staying wary of man-eating sharks. The gameplay loop combined resource management (expand raft from wreckage to mansion), navigation (sail toward new destinations), and animal husbandry (catch and tend creatures, cook recipes for smoothies). Steam reviews hit "Very Positive" (93% of 124,863 users), praising the satisfying progression from simple survival to complex base-building. The game evolved from a free browser prototype into a full procedurally generated ocean adventure where every plank and crop plot represented hard-won scavenging. For StreamerHouse, Raft demonstrated how Early Access could refine survival crafting formulas into polished experiences, with the oceanic setting differentiating it from forest/island competitors through unique shark threats and infinite horizon exploration.
