1315 Workshop access is tied to the Steam client. Xbox Series X|S players may not receive a parallel sharing path at the Workshop launch; Microsoft's community-content systems differ from Steam's, and platform parity for sharing has not been confirmed. Xbox players should plan to continue using local installation methods via third-party tools until any Xbox-specific solution is announced.

1921 Expected Content Types

2022

2123 Based on the roadmap description and the game's existing systems, the Workshop is expected to support several categories of shareable content.

2224

2325 House Blueprints

2426

2527 The Blueprint Library already lets players save their building designs as reusable blueprints. The Workshop will extend this system by allowing those blueprints to be uploaded, browsed, and downloaded by other players. This means a player who builds an elaborate seaside villa can package the design and share it with the entire community. Other players can subscribe to the blueprint through Steam Workshop and load it into their own Blueprint Library for placement on their island.

2628

2729 Shared blueprints are expected to include the full structural layout (walls, floors, roofing, room configuration) and furniture placement. Players loading a shared blueprint will still need to gather or purchase the required materials to actually construct the building, so blueprints function as designs rather than free buildings.

2830

2931 Custom Designs

3032

3133 Beyond structural blueprints, the Workshop may support sharing of custom decorative layouts, garden arrangements, and farm configurations. The game's existing decoration system includes over 1,000 items, and players have created highly detailed interior and exterior designs. The Workshop would give these creators an audience and allow less design-focused players to benefit from the community's creativity.

3234

3335 Mods

3436

3537 The May 2026 update is explicitly described as a MOD support update, which means the Workshop will go beyond simple blueprint sharing. Full modding support could include custom items, texture replacements, gameplay tweaks, quality-of-life tools, and potentially new content additions. The extent of modding capabilities will depend on what APIs and tools Seed Sparkle Lab exposes to the community.

3739 How the Workshop Will Work

3840

3941 Steam Workshop uses a subscription model. Players browse available content through the Steam Workshop page for Starsand Island (accessible via the Steam client or a web browser), click Subscribe on items they want, and Steam automatically downloads and installs the content. Unsubscribing removes the content cleanly.

4042

4143 For content creators, the upload process typically involves selecting the content from within the game, adding a title and description, choosing tags and categories, and publishing through an in-game interface that communicates with Steam's backend. The exact workflow for Starsand Island has not been shown yet, but it is expected to follow standard Steam Workshop conventions.
