Hey, it’s been a long time since my last news. But I can tell you that I have done a lot of things. It’s finally a real game!

RPG System

• You will now get experience points when you dig or kill an enemy.

• This experience points can be invested into new abilities which are necessary if you want to dig certain materials or build complex structures.

• Technology levels (middleage, 20th century technology, …).

Monster

• Yes I have monsters now.

• They are dangerous day and night. If you want to wander around you have to fight your way through them

• The player starts in a save zone without any monsters

Player

• You can finally die (fall damage, under water, monsters)

• At the moment the health regenerates automatically. I am thinking about whether I should change this.

• If you die you will drop a backpack with all your stuff. This can be collected later.

• Weapons: Simple stick, knife, sword and pistole.

Particle System

• I have now fire effects.

• If you go into a forest particles are floating around.

Rendering:

• A huge amount of light sources with shadows can be placed into the landscape. The rendering quality is adjusted if you place too many lights.

Unique Game:

• Sorry, no pickaxe, shovel any more! Instead I will add a system which is similar to pixel drawing programs.

In the next weeks I will do playtesting and balancing.
