The players, veteran and new, are loving the new endless world, enthusiastically creating presets, guides and walkthroughs, Streamers are having fun in Co-Op and solo. The release just ticks all boxes. Mads (Fair) and I are very happy with the team behind the game - Necesse is the creation of everyone on the team - Be sure to check the credits! :D”
With 1.0 out, not only Players and Streamers have a solid game to enjoy, also the Modders are also busy creating mods.
Gareth from the UK, also known as Eryr, has made the very popular Mod “Necesse Expanded”:
“As a modder, I am happy to see Necesse reach 1.0, and I'm looking forward to future updates. Making mods for Necesse is a pleasure, and I appreciate the feedback and kind words posted on the workshop.”

Another community pillar, Save, maker of the Aphorea Mod:
"When I started making Necesse mods, I never thought I would end up staying in the community for so long, but people were just too welcoming. The game was fun, though not amazing, so yes, I stayed only because the community was incredible. Today, more than a year and a half later, I can say that Necesse is one of my favorite games. Version 1.0 is brutally fun and exactly what the game needed. And the community is still as kind as ever; everything I have done has been for them."
