waxweaver is a small but imaginative sandbox RPG that makes a strong first impression through its unusual world design. Instead of placing players on a conventional flat map, the adventure unfolds across a procedurally generated square planet with gravity adapted to its shape. This gives exploration a distinctive character as players travel around the surface, dig underground, collect materials, and gradually uncover what the generated world contains.

I actually adore this game so much, down to the art style, the concept, the simplicity, it is just a good time all around! Reminds me a lot of the early stages of terraria, before it gets super complicated, but it stays that way. And its free!! Although I would have gladly paid a couple bucks for it. Check it out!!! Also DEV!!! Waxweaver 2 when? :eyes_emoji:
