Hi everybody, I’m currently working on a new version of Cube World. I chose the project title Cube World Omega as a reference to Cube World Alpha, because I’d like to develop it in the spirit of that version, but with a new engine and new features.

I made a video to show you some new stuff:

New engine
The game has a completely new graphics engine based on Vulkan.
I added some ambient things like moving clouds, jiggling tree leaves and water waves as well as weather effects such as rain and snow. Also, water in colder areas can now be frozen with a slippery ice surface.

Procedural Models
The biggest change I’m working on is procedural models. All creatures in the world, including players, NPCs, pets, are now procedurally generated so that basically each creature is unique. No part of a character is hand-modeled, neither hair, face nor hands – everything is generated by an algorithm.

This also allows me to easily add facial expressions to each model. Here are some examples:

Also items such as weapons and armor will be procedurally generated

New GUI
The GUI gets an overhaul, too. Here’s a first look:

I’m also planning to bring back experience, leveling and skill trees for this version.

Music
By the way, I’m uploading my music to Soundcloud:

大家好，我目前正在开发一个新版本的《Cube World》。我选择项目Cube World Omega作为名称，并以Cube World Alpha作为参考，因为我想以该版本的内核来开发它，但要有新的引擎和新的功能。

我做了一个视频，向你展示一些新的东西：

新引擎
游戏有一个全新的基于Vulkan的图形引擎。
我添加了一些环境方面的东西，如移动的云、抖动的树叶和水波，以及天气效果，比如雨和雪。另外，寒冷地区的水现在会被冻结成滑溜溜的冰面。

程序化模型
一个最大的改变是我正在着手的程序化模型。世界里的所有生物，包括玩家、NPC、宠物，现在都是程序化生成的，所以基本上每个生物都是独一无二的。角色的任何部分都不是手工建模的，无论是头发、脸还是手 —— 一切都由算法生成。

这也使我能够轻松地给每个模型添加面部表情。这里有一些例子：


此外，诸如武器和盔甲等物品也将由算法生成。

新的GUI
GUI也得到了彻底的改造。这里有一个初步的外观展示：

我还计划在这个版本中恢复经验、等级和技能树的设定。

音乐
顺带一提，我正在把我的音乐上传到Soundcloud：
