Midnight, Swedish time, and Wurm was ablaze with fireworks as those Wurmians who were up and still standing danced in the villages, forests and towns.
2008 has seen much change in Wurm, not least of which has been the introduction of Boats to lake and sea, and 2009 is just stuffed with plans, at least some of which we hope to get up and running. Wurm is ever evolving, and year on year Wurmians see changes in their lives which just keeps them (and the developers) on their toes. This is the beauty of Wurm Online. It is not set in stone, it can never be "finished," there is simply far too many ideas out there that are just bouncing up and down trying to get into the game!
So, raise a pottery mug to the New Year, and lets see what we can squeeze in to the schedule!
When Christmas comes round, we like to spread a little bit of Christmas good will to all out players, who ever they are, however long they have played and where ever they come from! Wurm is just that kind of place. Of course, Santa will no doubt be visiting in the lands of Wurm, and if he visits, I am reasonably sure he may have something for the players, and that it is going to be wonderful. But just to get you all in the Christmas spirit here is a little tune penned by our own Bard of Wurm, specially for you lot!
So, what will happen after Christmas? Well, once Rolf is back and we have all shaken our selves free of the Christmas Spirit, one of our first orders of business will be to get stage one of the new sound released. We were hoping to get it out before Christmas, but, as Rolf mentioned in his blog, the one or two remaining problems were proving very elusive to track down. You know how it is; you know which tree the bear is behind, but every time you run round, it scampers round to the opposite side and nips you on the bum!
The small delay will, however, allow the Bard to sort through some of the music and maybe we can get a few little bits and pieces in there at the same time. We shall see - no promises!
In the meantime, have a wonderful Christmas - and if you are visiting for the first time, sign up and come and join the fun!
Merry Christmas from Rolf and the whole Wurmian Team!
Yes, we have taken the bull by the horns and released a new site. And it comes with a couple of extra bits.
First of all, I hope the look is a bit fresher than the last one. Though I noticed quite a few people have gotten rather attached to the green (Sorry Egal), I wanted to come up with a theme that I could create variations of easily. So this is it.
The extra bits are the Kingdoms Sections; see the left hand menu. These are for two reasons. First, they allow new visitors a way of easily getting a feel for the different peoples that make up the world of Wurm. And secondly, they give the player base a place where they can contribute articles as to what is going on in their own lands. More details about that in the forums.
Each of these sections have their own theme so just to create a bit of variation, and I will put additional stuff on those pages such as the Anthems and some nice tourist piccies - any one want to design me some 1960s style post cards? Might as well keep it fun!
The forum is also getting a makeover anytime now. If you have switched to one of the alternative templates, you may need to switch to wurmsmf2 to see the new design, which is in keeping with the overall look of the site.
So, I hope you enjoy the new design - it may be a while before I do another one! And please, People of Wurm, get me some articles to fill up your new Kingdom Sections!
And I am sure you will let me know of any bugs and spelling mistakes - as usual!
As you probably have noticed, today's update has been bigger than normal, and this gives us a prime excuse to relaunch Rol'f Blog - starting with today's update! This will give Rolf the opportunity to not only update players and visitors on what is going on in Wurm, but also what his plans are and where he sees this magnificent venture going.
