The next update will be available on Wednesday, December 18, in the early evening (GMT+1).

This update will not yet replace the Java version, instead it is the actual content update. We'll provide more information about the transition together with the update.

    First and foremost I would like to point out that this review is based on Update 0.5.3.5 Alpha released February 21st, 2015 on Steam. That being said, I have a lot of good things to say about this game, I as well would like to point out some things that I hope help the development team along their way should they read this.


    I have clocked 5.6 hours - SO FAR - into the game by the way so I haven't experienced everything yet. Here is my review on what I have seen so far - warning, it is lengthy as I have comments for the Devs too - also, I couldn't find anywhere in the forum to post this so I placed it here, I hope this is alright. Nearly the exact same review can be found on the games Store Page in Steam, found here:


    Rising world is a Survival game but in its current condition it is more of a Creative play - which that by the way has been promised to be added later on as a playable game, I look forward to this (so for those of you that do not want to worry about monsters chasing after you, right now, there are none - made me REAL happy to see for now).
    *To save space in the forum, I placed everything in Spoilers to allow for simpler viewing*


    Graphics


    Lighting


    Overall Mining


    Crafting/Building


    Animals


    Multiplayer



    General Game overview:
    I LIKE IT! It is highly entertaining in such an early stage and is on the fast track to (sadly) beat Minecraft in entertainment. Yes, it is a little expensive at $15 for an Alpha-based game, but think of it this way... You are now involved in a game where you can voice your opinion on how the development of the game should/might turn out. YOU have the voice to help make changes in the game. It is fun, entertaining and once you figure out all the little tricks (you know, like the Light button and such) then you will find the game very hard to walk away from.


    Well done JIW Games, you are doing splendidly so far!



    And that is my very first game review (ever, so I hope it was ok), I hope it helps someone out (be it the creators of the game or a potential buyer/player/addict) - Keep on crafting, fellow Risers! <3
