…aaaand welcome back, everyone! We’ve got three weeks of info, so let’s dive in!

Things We Learned or Reconfirmed

Crafting has been Wollay’s latest project, partially shown here.
Wollay’s wife, Sarah (@pix_xie), has been added to the dev. team full-time as a ‘Voxel Artist’.
Mammoths & Penguins have been added to the game, shown here - - nice work, Sarah!
An In-Game Lexicon will be provided in-game,
Bows will be made with all types of materials, if there was any doubt to the contrary.
Spiribits will ‘not’ be the final name of the game…apparently.
Alpha Release might be a little further off than we thought, as there’s “still much to do”.

@wol_lay: I'm working on Cube World's crafting GUI. On the screenshot you see the formula collection and the crafting window. http://i.imgur.com/I73QL.jpg

@wol_lay: @pix_xie is now also voxel artist on Cube World. :­D

@bastenkoen: Awesome work! Has Cube World become your fulltime job or is it still a project you work on in your spare time?
‏@pix_xie: Yes, I'm working on it full time! :­)

@MarcoDigrado1: Hi :­D are you a programmer aswell, or just a artist. If you are a artist, are you designing looks for the weapons and architecture?
‏@pix_xie: I'm just designing all sorts of things ;­)

@pix_xie: I have just created penguins and mammoths for Cube World. :­) http://i.imgur.com/jen0i.jpg

@comham: Looking good. Make sure it's playable without a wiki, ie lots of in-game info.
‏@wol_lay: Yeah, I'm planning an in-game lexicon for items etc.

‏‏@RyanF33: Will there be iron bows or bone bows, seems a little odd that everything else would be while bows are wood.
‏@wol_lay: Yeah there will be bows of all kind of materials.

@SpiriBitsForums / @ateam55: [deleted]
‏@wol_lay: That's incorrect and I never said that. Also, the name will be different.

@OliverT: So will you give any clues to when Cubeworld will be out? or has @wol_lay made you just say "when its ready" to??
@pix_xie: There is still much to do, but we are making good progress! :­)

Not Summarized:

Spoiler

@LordZeus111: is it out or closed beta
@wol_lay: Not yet.

‏@brown__biscuit: will they're be potions that inflict damage onto monsters?
‏@wol_lay: Maybe, sounds like a nice idea.

‏@RyanF33: Is wood officially a weapon type or is it just for those clubs?
‏@wol_lay: Currrently just clubs are made of wood.

@Crazy_Melon4: Are you planning on just adding the crafting system then releasing it or still adding a few more things?
‏@pix_xie: We have to see if it's fun enough! ;­)

@GewoonBijAHH: will you update wollay's blog too?
‏@pix_xie: No, but I will probably be involved in some screenshots ;­)

@Salvationay: Can you give an estimated time remaining for the release? What content are you guys currently working on right now?
‏@pix_xie: We are currently working on the crafting systen, still a lot to do until release! ;­)
