It's still in alpha, a playable demo would be fairly far down the line I would have thought. There's vids around so you can see how the game plays. If that isn't enough then you can wait for a demo and the full release.
Ah there is a demo, I completely missed it: https://picroma.com/buycubeworld

it's not a demo as such, more like a benchmark. it's a 360 view of the world and a logo in the middle.
Although if you don't have a hang-glider me and Murray will call you a peasant as we sore elegantly into the trees
Fixed.
Well I attempted to land on a cloud yesterday. Word of advice. If you do attempt such a thing, do not bail out of your hang glider just above its surface instead of touching down. I had quite a long fall to reflect on that

I did also jump off a mountain and my glider didn't activate, that was funny looking back

I love this game. Was playing for a long time last night with a friend of mine, he went an elf ranger (original, I know), I play as a frogman berserker. He was whining about how weak he is and how strong I am, saying that he does 0 damage to ogres where as I am hitting 50 - 120 with skills
Got a few pets too, currently riding around on my little Terrier

Bumped into a couple of those, there are scary +1 and +2 monsters at the ones in my world.
Also, I found a really cool rock that you have to think about carefully how you climb it to scale it, has a boss and +1 monsters on top.

Yeah it catches you out so often early on when you're getting used to it. Doesn't open if you're already falling. Several times I didn't open it fast enough or held down the button instead of clicking it and when I let go it would always be away and I'd fall.
Did have a hilarious moment last night though. Absolutely pitch black. 1 went ahead, me another another mate running along to catch up. We go up a big hill, I jump off the end and put the hang-glider up, he carried on running and vanished off the side of my screen

I'm not leveling, I am hang gliding over everything!
I tried to climb it but scary things killed me

Look for a penguin!

Good fun with some friendsCannot wait to see what the full release brings.
Uses an ABSOLUTE MOUNTAIN of bandwidth to host though. 50-60 KiloBYTES/Second per player.
Bandwidth is definitely something they'll need to trim down massively but still in alpha so plenty of time to do that, I was impressed at how nice the game is, the elements in the game are very polished for an alpha!
Mate was trying to host it to begin with since he's in the same house as his brother atm who was also playing but it was a bit laggy now and then. We swapped to me hosting (the map system sounds very bizarre but works nicely) and it was perfect for all of us as far as I know.
Guess its only an issue if you have usage limits.
