I'm glad you've been enjoying the game and thank you for helping to uncover these issues!

The first crash must have happened when the game ran out of resources for allocating more blocks during the endless mode, Skyland can only spawn 181 blocks at once. I've never hit the upper limit myself, but it definitely seems to be possible, so I'll try to increase it.

I fixed the second crash, and yeah that's indeed what's breaking the game. The game will sometimes give you some free terrain when picking up blocks from quests, various levels, etc. if your island is full to prevent you from having to salvage stuff. While you can't build an island larger than 14 blocks wide under normal circumstances, 16 blocks wide is a hard limit on the size of an island, the game got stuck in an infinite loop trying and failing to increase the size of an island past 16 until it eventually crashed due to a separate problem.

Thats great to hear, I'll update soon and keep on grinding :)

Do you want me to raise any other bugs I find here?

Also is there any chance on a multiplayer adventure mode 👀

Thanks for your reply and support 😁

Yes, if you find any issues, please let me know, it's helpful when people uncover bugs! Multiplayer adventure mode would be really cool, other people have asked for that as well, it would be a lot of work though and I haven't decided whether to add it yet. As a first draft, I could create a multiplayer adventure mode where player 1 controls most of the dialog and map navigation, and player 2 is idle during dialog sequences and drops in to participate in battles. Getting the dialog boxes and other stuff like that synchronized will take a while.
