What makes it different
A world that isn't made of cubes
Bixie is built on a hexagonal prism grid — pointy-top hexes on an offset lattice,
each exactly one unit across. It changes everything above it: how cliffs break,
how rivers cut, how a canopy sits on a hillside.
◆
Nineteen biomes, none of them filler
Stepped mesa tablelands. A dished hollow where giant fungi stand in for trees.
An antarctic plateau over blue ice. Scorched volcanic shelf laced with magma.
Each has its own terrain shape, its own ground, and its own plants — right down
to how much bare earth it leaves showing.
◆
Weather that rolls in
Five states on a weighted chain — clear, hazy, overcast, rain, storm — and it
always steps through overcast. A storm arrives in ten seconds and takes
half a minute to clear. The light, the fog, the colour grade and the rain all
move together because they read the same five values.
◆
Twenty-minute days, four-day years
A full day-night cycle every twenty minutes, and a full year of seasons every
four of those days. Dawn is worth stopping for. Night is genuinely dark, and
something comes out in it.
◆
Infinite, seeded, streamed
The world has no edge. Terrain generates in a background worker so walking never
stutters, and every world is deterministic from its seed — find one you like and
you can go back to it.
◆
Combat with weight
Light strikes, a charged heavy worth 2.2× damage, and a directional dodge-roll
with real invulnerability frames. Stamina gates the dodge and the heavy — the two
places where spending it is a decision — and never the running.
◆
Dig it, stack it, keep it
Over two hundred block types, per-block hardness, tool tiers, and drops that
tumble loose and follow you home. Break the world down and build it back up.
