_A group of friends_

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

Fortress and Cube World.

In August, Veloren saw a network library update, new locations in the character

selection screen, the implementation of a new portal graphic, and numerous

translation updates. Moreover, improvements were made to the airship fixes, loot

balancing, and group chat issues. There also been upgrades to the dependency, a

README update, and tweaks to the buff death message.

Ongoing projects currently in the works include the addition of Phoenix

abilities, NPC arenas, frost Giga attacks, compasses, and a banking storage

system. Other upcoming updates include an enhancement to the windmills, CI

scripts, saving window size, the selection of a single-player world, addition of

lava material, and improvements to the weather network protocol. Work is also

ongoing on ship movement, pet commands, Terracotta ruins, dwarven quarry,

coastal towns, clifftown rework, and axe skills. They are also planning to

implement physics interactions that increase your height when gliding, including

the introduction of thermal and ridgelines.
