Game Description

An open world sandbox game and a testbed for AI research.
Explore the world, build your own tools and fight monsters!

This is a work in progress title! We are still actively developing it (This means it has bugs, but the features will grow and you can take part in the developing process by posting your ideas)

Everything you see in the world can be changed! The blocks are much smaller and complexer than in other games!

With a state of art animation system every NPC moves smoothly through the landscape!

Build Tools

Water Simulation
The water is totally dynamic. It can be collected by the player and placed again.

Gameplay

Weapons
Use a lots of different weapons to fight the monsters in single player mode or your opponents in the multiplayer mode!

Hint for parents: There is no blood in this game. You do not fight humans. And scary monsters like the zombie can be disabled in the settings. A peaceful mode is available. If you think that you need more features to protect your children, feel free to contact us, we will implement them!

  • We will not break your maps when we release a new version of the game!
  • The mod support will also be backwards compatible. So if you write a mod for this game this will also work in future version!
  • We have a demo version. If you are unsure just try it out!
