Game: Blockland

[IFHTT]

Ok so a couple of us on irc were talking about online games and this one was brought up.

While it's not so much of a game it's still a fun way to kill time.

Blockland (http://www.blockland.us) is an multiplayer online lego building environment.
While the retail version development, the older version is available for download free.

Basically the premise is, you (character is a lego person) can pick up parts and build with them, and thats pretty much it. Perfect for any lego fan. Some other stuff is the ability to hover/fly, chat with other folks, pretty much standard online game stuff (except for the fly part :D).

I'm not expecting/asking anyone to think this game is the shit, because it's a mediocre beta at best and the graphics aren't exactly breathtaking, for a free 8 mb download, its worth a try.

I've gone through the liberty of setting up a dedicated gotwoot server for any of those who want to play online. The server name is ".:: Gotwoot Blockland::." and the password to join is "nonoobs". So there you have it, enjoy.


Edit: I guess i should point out that the pics on the front page are not from the beta , just a little disclaimer I felt should be tacked onto this post

eh, boredom can do the worst things to man or woman, so i guess i'll give it a shot. i expect this game to be somewhat entertaining for the weird and wrong reasons.

i'll have fun building it, but even more fun destroying it!

edit: for some reason it won't start and i keep getting errors.

[IFHTT]

what kind of errors?

[Zinobi]

ill give free diving and belly flop lessons in green hills

[BioAlien]

can we like.. kill other lego people in this? or all we can do is fly around and talking to the other there?

[Zinobi]

if you find the weapons in the level yes

[6Zabuza9]

gonna try this out, can we make weapons?

[Genma]

Strange game... but like, I can't join any servers because it gets to the end of the loading bar and just stops. x_o;

edit: nevermind, problem solved thanks to their FAQ.

Can't find the server

[IFHTT]

Server is up, so after hitting Query Master it should show up in the list.

[DB_Hunter]

Still can't see it.

lol, i went in the Gotwoot block server, i painted everything there in grey (there is a huge ass tower) and i wrote Bio (look like 8i0 though...) in black at bottom of tower hehe.

also, who's that Robin Wood in the server? a bot, or one of you?

[IFHTT]
