What is your opinion, is the $20 for BlockLand worth it? It's a tempting buy for me, but I'm still not sure.
Are the servers hosted by users or are they reserved, owned by the company, etc.

[VinnyTheGuy]

The game is amazingly fun and moddable.
Servers are hosted on a master server and anyone can host.
The community ranges from children to adults and military personnel.
The forums are active and fun, also very accepting of anyone but obnoxious fans of things.
As i said there are tons of mods, so many that you'll never run out of things to do.
The building is just like you're there building with legos as a lego character, but with friends and an infinite amount of type of bricks and just bricks overall.

It's all up to you.

as a secondary game, yes. but if you dont play too much on the computer, or $20is a lot to you,maybe not. cuz there are good servers, but only so many, and they arent always up or populated.

This is a problem we have been having recently. Eric is trying to get Blockland on steam so the community pops back to life. Hopefully we'll get there one day.

Well thanks to the fact that any moron and their retarded friends can get a game on Greenlight, it's not going quite well. We were so close to making it, then a bunch of idiots put their crappy games on there and then youtube commentators guaranteed us our spot change from #20 to #641 on the list.

[HatHelper]

how do you go from #20 to #641? i doubt the whole internet conspired to stop bl from getting greenlight. i think bl got lucky getting to 20, then went to 641 because thats where it was always going to go

[boxtropica]

Got BL.... Worth it! Wouldn't be surprised if it made it past greenlight! In fact, I'd be surprised if it didn't make it!

I'm glad you enjoy it.

Because games made in game maker pro are so much better than Blockland.

maybe everyone in bl voted it at first, but then votes stopped and other games kept on going.

[cornholio234]

Well, that's a shame, especially since I wanted it to actually get on Steam. :/

Eric says we have an average stream of votes.

Just the fact that there are so many popular commentators out there playing greenlight games just makes it hard.

Well, that's a shame, especially since I wanted it to actually get on Steam. :/

We'll get there eventually.

[HatHelper]

is there a deadline, and then gotta try next year or something?

[VinnyTheGuy]

There's never a deadline, it'll be there until it gets the votes it needs.

[Psychedelic]

Oh, I still had a key laying around.
