Nice style! How are you doing the water? Just different shader properties? Will it have any different physical properties?
I'm thinking just a reflective shader right now. It might be kind of cool to experiment with animated pixel hatching say, when the wind is blowing, or when rain hits the water… or maybe when the water is running downhill. But at the moment it's probably best to keep things simple. One of the new guys who's joined us (Peter) has experience with physics simulations, so you never know.  |

OOooh yes ! A generated game NOT made of cubes !
We'll probably be using voxels for the terrain, but Jimmy (a wiz at geometry) is going to implement some kind of skinning – probably dual marching cubes. So no Minecraft blockyness (although very much inspired by it). |

The art style of this game looks super appealing to me.

Hmmm I like this one too (from your Flickr) Monochromatic landscape and dithering, and some nearly-fractal repetition of elements....   |

Nice, it be sweet if you can ride a boat down a river in this world of yours. Just sit back, relax, turn up the music, and enjoy the view, right?  |

I want to see that sky in motion more than anything! A timelapse, maybe?  |
