Openworld is a voxel sandbox on a whole, round planet: walk straight and you come back to where you started, under a real sky with Moon phases and eclipses, all the way to the Moon. Start with what a voxel game is, then see the genre in voxel sandbox games: build, automate, fly to the Moon.
Ready to try it? Each system has its own install guide, with the exact prompts you'll see: a sandbox game for Mac, native on Apple Silicon, for a Windows PC and on Linux. And to see what makes the game unique, read how the round planet works.

Yes. Openworld has been playable since the first day of its alpha. Download it for Mac, Windows or Linux, create your account in the launcher and play: there is no release date to wait for.
Openworld isn't on Steam or any other store, and you don't need one: you download the game from this site, today, and its launcher keeps it up to date.
Alpha: the game is playable and grows with every update; things move and sometimes break. When it is more stable, it becomes a beta, then its official version. It's the same game all the way: you play now, and the launcher installs each new version by itself.
You play right away, you watch the game grow update after update, and the alpha costs less than the official version will.
Normal for now: the app doesn't have its Apple certificate yet. Click Done, open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down to Openworld and click Open Anyway. Just once.
The installer doesn't have its certificate yet. Click More info, then Run anyway.
Extract the archive and run the program:
tar xzf Openworld-linux-x64.tar.gz && ./OpenworldYou need a Vulkan graphics driver (Mesa or NVIDIA) and glibc 2.31 or newer (Ubuntu 20.04, Debian 11, Fedora 32 or newer).
A Vulkan-capable graphics card (on a Mac, macOS 11 or newer). The game adjusts its view distance and weather quality: a recent laptop is enough.
Update your graphics driver from NVIDIA's, AMD's or Intel's website. On a laptop with two graphics cards, update both. On Linux, install the Mesa Vulkan drivers (mesa-vulkan-drivers).
