Download Free Beta Of Cube World

Cube World seemed to mesh the 2 in this type of way so as to create together the procedurally generated worlds of Minecraft along using the world destruction and mesh them while using questing and adventuring aspects of Zelda. It was able to achieve all with this while still only being a number of weeks in to the development cycle. Amazing to the least.Unfortunately there were still a whole lot about the game we didnt know like whether or not Minecraft and Zelda were inspirations when the overall game was supposed to get released or even exactly what the planned distribution channel was for the game.Luckily the games developer Wolfram von Funck got a their hands on me to answer a few questions. EnjoyCan you explain a little bit about yourself as being a game developer and what youve done previouslyIm 32 years old are now living in Germany and possess programmed games and engines half my life. Besides that Im also considering drawing and digital art. I have studied computer science and after receiving my PhD I started my own, personal small graphics software company (www.picroma.com). Game programming continues to be my hobby and Cube World is my first serious game project.Your game Cube World looks remarkably like a Minecraft/Zelda hybrid. Was this your intention What was your inspiration behind the gameMaking a hybrid of those games wasnt my intention in the beginning but the idea developed over time. Both Minecraft and Zelda were definitely big inspirations for me.What I like about Minecraft is the fact that the procedurally generated world constructed of cubes allows just one developer to produce a full 3D game having a huge world to explore. You have no idea need level editors modeling software or a team of artists. Furthermore programming a game engine depending on voxels is by far easier compared to a full-blown 3D engine like CryEngine or UnrealEngine in the cost of realism that literally brings me on the next inspirations I love games like Zelda Landstalker Secret of Mana and Final Fantasy. As a youngster Ive always dreamt of making this type of game by myself. So the subsequent step for Cube World ended up being translate the standard JRPG pixel art style (big head spiky hair etc.) into the globe of voxels. Thats what I did plus a Minecraft/Zelda baby came away from itHow long has Cube World held it's place in development forI started the project this coming year on May 25. I was captivated with the project right in the start so that it reached a fairly mature state already following a few weeks (including some sleepless nights).What kind of gameplay are you currently planning for Cube World Questing Crafting RPG elementsId like that will put a powerful focus on questing so theres always something meaningful to do. As the planet is procedurally generated the quests will be procedurally generated too. This saves me from scripting hundreds of quests along with the players get new tasks every among the time. Another focus needs to be the exploration in the Cube World also as character advancement within the typical RPG style by skills and equipment. Combat is planned to be HacknSlash-like and fast-paced. There will be no crafting or mining.The game appears to already be setup for multiplayer. Are you planningon this being primarily a multiplayer gameI have built in multiplayer right from your start to avoid complications in the future development. I understand the game as both single player and multiplayer game.This could be a little ways off but perhaps you have considered how youre gonna release/distribute the sport Are you thinking of a similar process as Minecraft where players bought the Alpha versionI do not have any concrete plans yet. I cant even estimate when the overall game will be finished. However the Steam platform seems popular with me.Anything else you'll have the ability to imagine to inform usI had never expected this kind of huge feedback for my little game project. It all started over at TIGForums (forums.tigsource.com) where I just meant to share my project with other indie developers to obtain feedback and inspirations from like-minded people. I recommend it with other indie developers you obtain a lot of constructive critique there.Well be keeping close tabs about this game in the future because it develops.
