Say hello to World Cores, a new element central to player progression that we're adding to Voxile:

World Cores tie the worlds together. Unfathomably ancient, they watch over Voxile's islands — waiting for the player to advance enough to activate what's next. #indiegame #indiegamedev

Isle of the Dragon is a quaint coastal town shaped by tides and trade, its bustling docks the pulse of daily life.

But past salt-stained stalls, a quiet unease clings to the corners: whispers hint of cults, corruption, and a legend the town was meant to forget. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame

A new update is live in Voxile!

From improved object logic to more polished progression, our worlds just got a whole lot more dynamic, destructible, and creative. Give the new stuff a spin and let us know what you think! #indieGameDev #indiegame

Curious how we go from blank canvas to playable area in Voxile?

Here’s one dev’s method to designing a detailed space from scratch, captured from their perspective in a sped-up timelapse. #indiegame #IndieGameDev #gamedev

Something’s wrong beneath the town of Ooze Machina...

And it’s spreading. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #IndieGameDev

Voxile is in this month's print issue of PC Gamer! 🎉

A bit of a surreal moment for the team - we're honored to see our indie game highlighted alongside so many other inspiring projects. A huge thanks to @pcgamer.com for the feature! #indiegame #IndieGameDev
Excerpt from PC Gamer reads: VOXILE Building a world, brick by brick Voxels were once supposed to be the future of PC games, and yet somehow polygons still endure. Voxile combines voxels and ray-tracing in a way that sounds like it could melt your graphics card if turned up to high enough settings, and as a result looks very much like a copy of Minecraft that fell through a time portal from the year of our lord 2050. Comparisons to Mojang’s somewhat popular title are inevitable, as the world of Voxile is made of blocks and it’s a survival game, but there’s a lot more shooting going on among the beautifully lit cubes here. Voxile is more of an exploration and combat game, with damage numbers erupting from creatures’ heads as you blast the voxels off them. There’s a plot too, a tale of mysterious ooze that’s transforming the terrain as it spreads across islands that differ in theme and in the game mechanics available on them. Voxile looks amazing in motion, and its world editor means you may one day see ray-traced creations to rival those of Minecraft. RELEASE: Out now (Early Access) DEVELOPER: VoxRay Games, Inc.

Rice to meet you! 🌾

Lead designer @benjapenguin.bsky.social cooked up this step-by-step demo showcasing how to make egg fried rice with Voxile’s crafting system. What should he try making next?

(Apologies to anyone watching this before lunch...)

You wear the badge now 🤠

You’re the new sheriff in Willow Creek, an idyllic Americana town in Voxile. Charming place, really—if you can ignore the cult activity, bad pasta, and jogger in briefs. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #IndieGameDev

Crafting a new island from scratch, voxel by voxel 🏝️

Timelapse footage from Lifton’s Rest, a level-in-progress you’ll be able to play soon. Built with the same world editor you have access to with Voxile! #indiegame #IndieGameDev

In the sun-scorched cliffs of the Great Basin, mystery awaits...

An ancient city’s secrets beckon, and its people look to you for help. What will you uncover? #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #IndieGameDev

Sneak-peek at some prototype physics 🥊

We’re testing new object interaction mechanics in Voxile: watch how the system responds much more naturally when objects are displaced or blocked.

Still a work-in-progress, but exciting to see it come together! #indiegame #IndieGameDev

Experimenting with some spooky sword combat ⚔️

Implemented new attack patterns with wind-up cues and sudden lunges - also trying out side-dodges for both the player and skeleton. #indiegame #IndieGameDev

(You can preview some fresh SFX + music in the video too!)

First pass on a new pig enemy skin!

Experimenting with a punk rock vibe - still refining the details to make sure it fits into Voxile's narrative. What do you think? #indiegames #IndieGameDev

McAbre but make it look like a diorama🏡

Back at it again with the tilt-shift filter experiments! Obsessed with how a simple blur effect suddenly makes Voxile feel like a miniature tabletop world. #indiegame #IndieGameDev
