With a survival experience that's so crammed full of features you're likely to get lost for weeks, Vintage Story has always looked pretty good. Recently though? They turned it up a notch or two.
Version 1.12 went out this month as a major update focused on adding more visual flair including new animations, more reflective surfaces, a new personal-damage overlay effect, a rework of clouds (and they sure do look pretty), cold regions will see an aurora borealis effect, armour stands, performance improvements and various other tweaks to really make it something quite special.
I do suggest checking out the brand new trailer below too:

I feel like I now actually need this. All the different wildlife running around like Hares that steal your carrots, the smithing that has you actually hammer something into the world rather than use a menu and so on—all those details are awesome. Amazing what a small indie team can do and they're trying to make it full-time too, so if you like the look of it now is a good time to pick it up since it's fully cross-platform.
You can pick up a copy from Humble Store, the official site and itch.io.

It looks really good, maybe I'll check it out on Itch.io, I had never bought a game there, this could be my first.
Edit: It seems it is not my type of game, more of exploring, survive, build, I expected some sort of Minecraft with story...

I think we need our own server for this game! I've played for a bit, but it would be more fun together. Can we make some kind of a poll to see even roughly how many of us are here? I'm willing to host it
I've been looking for a server to join that hasn't been built up yet, so I'd definitely be down for it! I've been playing single player a lot lately, but it definitely is better played with others. (Not that SP is bad by any means, though!)
Also, as a physical geographer, I really appreciate all the thoughts that have been put into making the world realistic and rather believable. The geology is very good, with the distribution of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary layers of rock. I've been running around the world and sometimes have flashbacks of places I've been in real life. Even though it's a voxel game, the ambience is that good.

Count me in, this game seems like it could be mad fun with a nice group.
It works via Mono.I'm afraid that misses the pun.

Perhaps you weren't answering me in the first place and I made a mistaken assumption. But assuming your comment that the game uses Mono was answering my "question"--It works via Mono.I'm afraid that misses the pun.

I wasn't actually asking if the game runs on Wine, I was making a vintage -- wine pun.
