"Veloren is a multiplayer voxel RPG written in Rust. It is inspired by games such as Cube World, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Dwarf Fortress and Minecraft."
I love how pointing out that it's written in Rust is more important that describing what the game is about or inspired by. Classic open source project unsure of who's the intended audience.

- lightbritefight 3y agoSeems like they know that the audience for an open source game is going to be FOSS nerds first, gamers second. Leading with Rust makes a lot of sense in the list of descriptions.
- smoldesu 3y agoThe expectation is probably more for contributors to read that, not players.
- ciwolsey 3y agoWhy does there have to be an audience, or why can't it be other people interested in Rust?
- zesterer 3y agoFounder & core dev here. Our target audience is just as much potential contributors as it is actual players. Mentioning Rust is very deliberate: it pulls in a lot of motivated developers, both those trying to learn the language and those with expert knowledge looking for a creative, relaxed way to put their skills into practice.
