As simple as it looks, this is a big gameplay feature for Hytale! Carryable Objects will let us add items and resources that are too big or too heavy to fit in your regular inventory. Transporting them or getting them home may become its own little adventure to solve, involving minecarts, special mounts, and eventually new transportation methods to bring them back home. Later on, we also want the carry mechanic to be compatible with a downed combat state, so if a friend is down, you'll be able to pick them up to get them out of trouble. It will also be used to move chests, craft stations, animals, solve puzzles, and much more!

Six months ago, Jeb from Mojang tried Hytale and said "I'd like it to be more different to Minecraft." He was right, and I said it then too. The features that make us unique weren't in the game yet. Hytale and Minecraft will always be compared, but we're not trying to make the same kind of game. Yesterday's blog shows what that means for the future. Handcrafted dungeons with multi-phase boss fights, combat abilities, runeforging, world events, companions involved in the crafting loop, and much more. We want to be a deeper RPG, a stronger adventure identity, and a game that will evolve massively over the next few years. We just happen to be a block game, and we are just getting started.
