We're excited to share another update with you about RivenWorld and our progress in development. Since the last closed beta, we've been working tirelessly on overhauling our inventory/ crafting system to a new character customization system. Enjoy, and let us know what you think in the comments!
Character Customization

Once you log in to RivenWorld, you can create a 100% customizable character with over 1,000,000 variations available.
AI Animals

We've been working on AI Animals and developing their decision tree and AI logic. Currently, we have passive AI working with deers and plan to add different types of passive animals, along with aggressive animals and mobs, before release.
Up next will be ranged combat and connecting it to the Animals in the world.
Overhauled Inventory & Crafting

After the last closed beta, we saw a need to overhaul the inventory and crafting system from the ground up. Taking inspiration from Minecraft and games like 7D2D, players can now do everything in the inventory/ crafting menus using shortcuts. For example, Middle Click a stack of items, and it will split in half and move to the slot you move it to.
Usernames

Once you join RivenWorld for the first time, you can select a unique username connected to your Steam Account. This username will be used as your name in RivenWorld servers. We add our username system to help players have an identity in the community and on the servers they play.
Server List & Settings

We've been working hard to implement a server list system and a robust game settings menu.
