_A mist rolling over the land_

[Veloren][veloren] is an open world, open-source voxel RPG inspired by Dwarf

Fortress and Cube World.

In April, work started on 0.10. Work is being done on combat, with new models

being created for enemies, animations being refined, and new player gear being

added. The trading and economic systems have continued progress at a good pace.

The music system was expanded to support combat music.

Veloren's financial state was overhauled to examine previous expenses, and

prepare for provisioning the dedicated server. Functionality was added to switch

between server-authoratative and client-authoratative physics. Skeletons for

big-winged creatures were added. Data being sent over the network is being

optimized to reduce the amount of bandwidth players have to use.
