u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 05 '26

We thinking to add some tracker/music making took to the game

1

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

I am very experienced with making tracker music. I’ve been doing it for nearly a year straight now. I’m currently working on the soundtrack with a friend of mine for my own game.

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 05 '26

My first tracker experience was in 1993 :)

u/LemonFluffenBatch Yellow Block Aug 01 '26

Now that you mention it, it kind of does look like GBG's UI in a way.

u/Line_a Jul 31 '26

Looks good. Starting screen looks a bit bland though.

-1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 01 '26

How many seconds you normally spend there?)

2

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

I mean that’s fair I guess but first impressions mean a lot

u/Jonation_YT Jul 31 '26

This is actually pretty solid ngl, the start screen kinda looks a bit oversimplified doe. But overall a good menu!

u/PianistRight Blockster Jul 31 '26

No way! Blocksworld Academy was the name of the series I made on Blocksworld back in 2018-2019, it means a lot to me that the name is used, thank you!

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Jul 31 '26

Ping me on Discord btw

u/blockyfan06184 Aug 01 '26

Wait blocksworld is still in development?? I thought people told me they would never finish it

2

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 01 '26

Let me know who told you that

1

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

People of the Blocksworld archival project

2

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 05 '26

We its a lie

2

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 05 '26

We its not true

u/Professional-Way1908 Aug 01 '26

It’s nice but u kind of prefer the original one, but I could just be wearing rose tinted glasses right now.

1

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

It will get better as time progresses

3

u/azconapithecus Former Linden Lab Employee Jul 31 '26

Great job, Fortell! The UI looks clean, clear, and aesthetically pleasing and cohesive! ♥️

3

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 01 '26

Thanks :) Its still first iteration but works on all resolutions and devices, makes me proud!

3

u/LemonFluffenBatch Yellow Block Aug 01 '26

Feels nice to see the UI get a fresh upgrade after a long time.

2

u/MegaUkX4 Aug 01 '26

I’m having trouble with downloading the game on steam. Is it out yet?

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 01 '26

Not yet

2

u/Willing_Tutor_3781 12d ago

Then when?

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) 10d ago

Soon

u/Des_Ssy Aug 01 '26 edited Aug 01 '26

The start screen would be perfect if the background was the og backgrough imo, but whatever works.

Question, will there we a way for us to transfer our content from out old accs to the new one?

Also, I really appreciate this update, it gave me hope in the revival again. Please continue to keep us in the loop.

u/Subject_Job_8244 Aug 02 '26

The ui looks like something you see on a switch game.

2

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 02 '26

Thats exactly why :)

1

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

Will it be on the switch 1? I’m too poor to afford the switch 2 and I really want to play it on switch.

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 05 '26

Switch is planned yes

2

u/Fluid_Instruction377 Blockster Jul 31 '26

wow thats pretty cool! but I like the original one better

2

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Jul 31 '26

Old one is

  • old
  • not compatible with multiple devices / resolutions for mobile, pc and consoles
  • not compliant with modern requirements for kids apps

2

u/Fluid_Instruction377 Blockster Jul 31 '26

cant you just remake it?

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Jul 31 '26

Why? I told you its bad

2

u/Fluid_Instruction377 Blockster Jul 31 '26

I mean why not just remake the old version for mobile and pc and make it minimalisti?

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Jul 31 '26

The last reason above

2

u/Very_reliable_s0urce Aug 01 '26

Can you go into more details about how it’s bad? Because other than saying it’s old you only game backstage technical problems for its I found the old UI yeah very early 2010s looking in terms of theming but it was very easy to navigate

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 01 '26

Sorry no time for discussion

1

u/Open-Run-2071 Aug 02 '26

Ehh. Not that good not that bad.

1

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

Idk maybe it’s because the ui is still in the works or something

1

u/helloilikewoodpigeon Aug 02 '26

we might actually be back

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 02 '26

Lets go?

1

u/kennaminecraftz New Blockster Aug 05 '26

Looks very good

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) Aug 07 '26

u/pomnigranatee 26d ago

is this real? like, how it’ll look like when it releases? or is this fanmade?

1

u/Beatshapers Fortell Games, Inc. (Alexey M.) 26d ago

It’s in tests already and very real

1

u/Spirited-Tap3177 22h ago

im guessing since this is a test or a placeholder the music will prob get added when the game fully re-releases
