Were you one of the dedicated TUG supporters that chipped in at least $65 toward the game's Kickstarter campaign back in May? If so, that alpha version of the game you were promised is on its way.
TUG offers a massive procedurally-generated world to explore, featuring 13 unique biomes
including complex cave systems and day/night cycles. The gameplay focuses on crafting,
exploration, pvp, and role-playing, with an emphasis on immersion and player freedom.
I got this game a year ago and it was not that great but this latest update looks a lot better.
Procedurally generated games are great, but finding a way to get to places sucks. "It's next to the tree and the rock."
I agree they are nice for the exploration but playing with others gets to be a pain unless they have a decent map and tracking system.

It’s also the game that saw its development team hit with layoffs after an investor held back its money last year. The developer found another investor, hired back the team, and has now added multiplayer to the “indev” version, which is an earlier-than-early-access build available for testing.
As TUG nears its second year of development, here’s some things you should keep an eye on."
