+
+[Veloren][veloren] is an open world, open-source voxel RPG inspired by Dwarf
+Fortress and Cube World.
+
+In June, Veloren released 0.10. During the release party, some of the developers
+joined a voice call to stream the game and answer some questions about
+development. You can watch that stream [here][veloren-stream]. A lot of metrics
+were recorded during the launch, and you can read about them in
+[blog #124][veloren-124]. At peak, 118 players were playing at the same
+time during the launch.
+
+The plugins system recieved a tutorial about how to get started. Caves were
+overhauled with lots of new content. Veloren has officially moved fully over to
+wgpu, which you can read all about in [blog #125][veloren-125]. Work has been
+done on hot reloading for easier access of assets in game. Lots of new models
+were added to the game, and bosses in dungeons are being overhauled with more
+skills to diversify combat.
