It is not unusual for modders to receive job offers for games that have already been changed without payment after a while; however, it is surprising that this happens just 2 weeks after the release. This has now occurred in Hytale.
Who has Hytale hired? Although Hytale was released less than two weeks ago, the developers have already hired a member from the modding community. The modder is Violet
, who has already released new character customizations for Hytale since the release.
The release of Hytale was already a great success:
From Mods to Assets
What does Hytale hope to achieve with this? Looking at Violet’s X.com profile, you can see many colorful characters that she has designed. This is evidently what she will be doing officially for the Minecraft alternative from now on.
In the future, she will be responsible for the official cosmetic items in Hytale, as Hytale chief Simon Hypixel
reveals. He further writes on X.com: […] She was one of the first Hytale modders and is now the first to join us! With this, we are keeping our promise to hire employees from the community!
In the past, the founder has repeatedly emphasized that he prefers to provide modders from the community with contracts and jobs. He is not the first, as creators from the important community mod FiveM are now also working on GTA 6.
How is the community reacting to the hiring? The players of Hytale are excited about the addition to the team and praise the creative skins of the new employee. According to comments on X.com, she is not an unknown face and has previously contributed with creative works.
Other modders are also commenting under the post to congratulate and simultaneously showcase their sometimes crazy mods. For example, modder Jaxpy, who created a Crab-Dance mod for Hytale that makes the crabs dance like in the famous video.
The success of Hytale is hardly surprising. The fact that players will now receive even more beautiful characters is something purely positive. However, it remains open when the first creations of the modder will come into the game. The new patch just came out: Hytale will soon bring new magic, cosmetic content, and changes to enemies with Update 2 – all patch notes in German
