After years of R&D months of relentless work through Q2, super excited to finally share a detailed breakdown of the very first playable #E2V1 release! 🌎✌️ 🧬Character Synthesis v1.0 🧳 Inventory System v1.0 🌿Foraging v1.0 🎧 Immersive Audio v1.0 🕓 Day Cycles v1.0 ❄️ Seasons v1.0 ❤️ Character Vitals v1.0 🎮 Action Bar v1.0 🌐 Multiplayer server-side architecture 📜 Quests v1.0 (website deployed) Check out the full article here with a detailed breakdown on each & every aspect, plus some insight into what's coming next: earth2.io/news/e2v1-chapter-… I know I was a little quiet throughout Q2, as was #Earth2 in general, but it's because we're so busy designing, implementing, testing, building. Remember, we are still in Pre-Alpha & this will be our first playable release of #E2V1, probably our biggest software release to date! We are still a few days away on the build, just fixing a few known bugs, mainly bugs around the new inventory system, specifically regarding management between the Discovery Box & the Inventory. The article explains the purpose behind testing, so our expectation is for #Players to stay close to their properties to test a few things out because you will be prone to dying easily the further you stray, especially if you don't have a natural water supply close by & food to forage & sustain you. I guess some might be up for the challenge to see how far they can go but that is not our expectation for this initial #RealityThread release! Apparently the article is a 60 min read (according to our news article publishing tool) so make sure you have a spare moment when you dig in! Though we know it will be buggy, as expected, we are so excited to see #Players running around inside #E2V1 & streaming. It's only the beginning! #Earth2 #Metaverse #E2V1 #PreAlpha #OpenWorld #Chapter1 #RealityThread1 $ESS
