Early Access Review
Do you want to fight? build? or maby just chill down with playing piano while other peoples is listening to your beautiful music?
The choice is yours!

Rising world. An epic voxel based sandbox game.
peoples may ask why this game would be so epic, and come with comments like "isnt this just another terriblie remake of minecraft"?

well the answere is NO.

This game indeed has inspiration by minecraft, but again theres a whole lot more to this game than you may think.
As i said this game is a voxel game just like minecraft wich means that the game is buildt up by cubes. And what i just said is not theoretically and scientificly corect, but i am just going to say that so you understand what i am talking about. an better explaination can be found in wikipedia.

However, what is it really that makes this unrealistic pixelized game as good as it is and how is it possiblie that a game that most peoples would call a minecraft remake could be a good game? well i am going to tell you that.

"The thing" about Rising World is that in this game you are more "free" and have a lot more options to how you can build whatever you're gonna build. yes you can build your house with blocks as in minecraft if you like, but in this game the material isnt blocks by standard. in this game you have to manually craft the blocks from different material wich can be mined in same way as in minecraft. when you cut down your first tree you will see that it drops a wood log as a raw material, with this wood log you can create planks and supporting beams for a "realistic house" and floor/wall panel like you would do in real life. Or if you want to you can craft an wood "block" instead.

The developers of this game have been focusing a lot on the subject "Realism" when you cut down the wood, they dont break in blocks, they break in logs, if you mine some ore they dont drop like blocks they drop like rocks in real life. Honestly this is actually a really awesome looking in game, the way the grass and everything is made is in so high quality that you wouldnt even belive it.

This game is based on the same subject as Minecraft wich is survival and building. As it is right now, the game is still in the early stage of development wich makes it a little bit dull right now if you want some action, but there will be coming hostile envoirment into the game really soon, and when i talk about hostile envoirment i mean hostile-wild animals like wolves and so on that can attack you. I am currently not sure what type of animals that will be added as hostile but i just used "wolf" as an example.

The game has two game modes to play: single player and multiplayer.

the single player part is pretty basic as i described above, mine, craft, survive, build
But the multiplayer part has PVP. Wich means that in game you will be able to find other peoples and choose wether you want to become their friends or their enemies, and if you choose enemies... well i guess you can imagine what happens next. FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE WITH WHATEVER WEAPON YOU GOT!

In this game i have experienced a bit troubles when it comes to the online servers. for some reason i get this issue with getting disconnected every 30 minutes wich is really annoying but im sure the devs will sort this out pretty quick,
In the first sentence of this review i wrote about piano. and you may wonder "what the heck has playing piano with this game to do"?

well in this game you can craft a lot of furniture that can be used wich also includes a fully functional playable piano where you use your keyboard to play different "buttons" on the piano.
and honestly i find this quite fun specially when im getting aplauded while playing "chis medina - what are words "
live for peoples on the server.

as furniture you have a lot of things to choose from, or more corectly said. hundreds of stuff!
among theese you god atleast 8 different doors, book shelves, lamps, chairs, tables and so on. everything from medieval style to modern style furniture.

In the end this game is a beautiful masterpiece of a game totally worth to check out.

so let your imagination free and go and build an masterpiece!


i will give this game an 9.5/10 points because of some lack of content but this is as i said resulted by early stage of development.
but yet i highly recommend this game to any voxel lovers or gamers who likes to use their creativity.
