Game: Cube World “working title”
system: PC. Though MAC support is
planed for the future.
State: in development
Welcome to the first installment of
Indie Squeeeee where we spot light a Indie project that we're fan
girlishly exited about. Now that I'm done with that let's talk
about Cube World.
Cube world is an exciting new a
voxel-based exploration RPG being developed by Wolfram von Funck
And although It looks very much like Minecraft you'd be wrong to sell
it short by assuming it's just a simple clone. The game is shaping up
to be an exploration RPG in every sense of the term with a full
fledged questing system and an endless world to explore and fantastical
creatures to slay.
According to the developer's blog the
game supports cooperative multiplayer and will support many other
features such as player customization, player classes and different
playable races. They have added a Building system that allows you to
construct houses from plans you collect and the game is to feature
many items, weapons, and armor along with an upgrading system.
Moving around looks to be a breeze. The
character controls seem to have a good feel of momentum. You can
scale cliffs and walls by climbing on them and when you get to the
top you can even use a hang glider to glide down.
But what really makes us Squeeeee for
Cube World is the world itself. A world spanning out in all
directions chock to the brim with procedurally generated adventure.
It and all it's creatures are made of three dimensional pixels and
voxel-based sprites give life to the people who live here and menace
to the creature and villains who roam the land. Each enemy that
you'll face looks to be fun and imaginative and there’s already a
good variety too. From goblins, giant crabs, and huge rampaging
turtles the game is shaping up to please and if you get board with
that you can raid a dungeon. The fact that I'm laying waist to it all with a
pixelated buster sword is just icing on the cake.
Every time I see the latest update of
cube world I can't help but get excited. Everything that gets added
only makes the game that much better and all of it makes me want to
play. Looking at what we've seen so far I
can't wait to get my hands on this one.
