From the README.md: Veloren is a multiplayer voxel RPG written in Rust. It is inspired by games such as Cube World, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Dwarf Fortress and Minecraft. The game is in active development and enjoys a flourishing player community.
Never heard of this, but just downloaded it. After trying Vintage Story, this feels incredibly polished! Ability to zoom out from character perspective to entire world without a hitch kind of blows my mind. And written in Rust! I may be a new fan.
It still feels very early stage to me, perhaps "polished" is the wrong term to use. It's also extremely difficult for a casual player like myself, focusing heavily on basic survival mechanics.
Vintage Story is quite polished in my experience. It's a bit disappointing content-wise though. The tech progression doesn't go very far, and what's there is nearly identical to the TerraFirmaCraft Minecraft mod.
I was looking the other day to see if this used the Bevy game engine, but it looks like Veloren started just before Bevy and wasn't able to take advantage of it.
This is a pretty massive achievement for the Veloren team to do all of this themselves.
I’ve heard this yes, maybe a mix of cube world and another game. I never played either but Veloren is fun even when all you could do was run and paraglide around the world and explore, but they’ve long since added many story elements too.
I’ve been playing Veloren for several months now and I love it. (My nick is “varsderk”—say hi if you see me!) It’s been going through a ton of development progress; the game now is very different from the game I started with; it keeps getting better. So happy this thing exists!
