At the very start of 2012, Wolfram von Funck released a new gameplay video of his side project Cube World – a voxel-based RPG. Not much attention had been garnered in the months beforehand other than some buzz amongst the indie community, but, as if fate, the start of the new year marked the beginning of a lot of exposure for Wolfram and his small pet project. Since then, Wolfram or “Wollay”, as he is more commonly known, has risen to the ranks of indie developer superstar and Cube World has become one of the most talked about indie game titles so far this year.
Kotaku writes: "I thought Cube World’s tighter focus and RPG elements would take the stuff I did like about Minecraft—its procedurally-generated worlds and a feeling of real boundlessness—and reign them into something more structured."
Cube World actually has a release date. After seven long years in development, the voxel-based RPG is finally launching later this month in full, a new trailer announces.
Downloaded and waiting for the beta.
This and NMS really restore your faith in devs supporting things for the long haul. I’ve had various projects I’ve backed on KS completely evaporate during the dev process so seeing studios rough it out over prologued periods is great.
CubeWorld, the voxel-based action RPG created by wife and husband indie developers Wolfram and Sarah Von Funck, will finally be releasing on Steam.
I bought this game back in the day and completely forgot about it! It would've been nice if the developers sent out an email, not everybody uses Twitter or follows every game, especially after years of no updates. I like the game page on FB but the last post was from 2014. Developers relying on Twitter to keep fans updated are leaving a lot of people in the dark.
