We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Expanding your world

Update #2 · May 1, 2012 · 5 comments

Deepworld isn't just a single world - it's an entire universe, and soon you will be able to explore (almost) the entire thing! We've spent the last week building some awesome new functionality to search through worlds and follow your friends, and we think these are crucial to Deepworld's differentiation.

Sandbox games have always involved sharing - there are countless awesome videos of Minecraft and other games on YouTube showcasing players' creations, but in Deepworld you will be able to actually go visit those creations (and soon, vote on them, too!) 

We're already having a blast teleporting around and visiting our intrepid alpha testers throughout the world - and we're excited to see you soon, too!
