First :D

Looks nice, can’t wait to see more videos as the development of this game progresses. Hopefully we get to see some features about PvE soon!

i wonder if the trees will ever grow back? but so far this game looks like a cross of minecraft & stronghold and i like both

Looks nice honestly i Saw the video before the posted the blog and i dont really gained à lot reading it but i agree that they should add some kind of treegrowing but what i wish most is a story bigger Islands or more of them because the smaller Islands decreases the creativity which is okay but also limits enemys possible ores/technology

Looks great.
What about trees- I think that it should be cool idea to build treegrower’s hut. A Bricktron would walk around and plant small trees that will slowly grow until maturity.

I want to play this game! Now!
So keep up the good work. :)
Nice to see a video.
I also wonder if it will be possible to build bridges later on? Perhaps between islands?

Really interested in this game; I actually see a closer resemblance to Dwarf fortress than that of minecraft; Interested to see how you’re going to handle cave systems and how the player is going to interact with and see the tunnels that they create; Love how the mining works where they create themselves a stair case! Wonder what happens if you destroy the stairs… do they just make a new one? hehe.

The best part I love about the game so far is the realism in the building; you actually have to build brick by brick and rather than just placing each one you plan where it goes and the entire system does what it needs to to make that happen. Love it. Beats plopping down whole buildings and them slowly appearing from bottom to top (settlers, sim city, etc).

Also love that the game is written under Unity3D; starting to play with Unity more and more; and seeing stuff like this removes my doubts as to whether it’s a viable platform for such complicated games as this!

Very well done guys,
Keep it up!

Love the idea of this game, looks like it will be great. Not going to suggest anything like those above me as I don’t know what you have planned or exactly how the mechanics will work. (What if 5 trees gave enough wood to make a castle of any size, no need for regrow right?). Game game and good luck guys!

Have you noticed how they’ve released 2 videos, neither of which on the website?

Really nice. The sunset is so pretty! I have a few questions, i too would like to know if you can grow trees. Also, if you mine really deep, will the Bricktrons handle stairs properly? (they actually build stairs for mines automatically, right?). Also, will grass regrow?

Also a little suggestion, we should be able to define a wood cutting area just like we can select a mine area, then nearby idle Bricktrons would cut trees until there are none left in the area. Ordering them one by one to cut wood seems tedious.

Here’s what I think: you guys need to add an efficient way of creating those yellow fellas (can’t remember their name), like a barrack or something like that, and then you can release the alpha.

Or, maybe, wait ’till you add some mob.

This looks great! I hope the actual game will run fast enough to have a speed up time function.

I am really looking forward to this game!

One comment, I hope you guys are planning to provide a means of mass designating trees to cut so there isn’t too much micromanagement when acquiring wood. It’s be much nicer to be able to set the guy up to cut wood and let him go than to have to click on each new tree once he finishes hauling the wood from the last tree.

Looks awesome already, and a great premise. Really interested to see more developing.
No idea how complicated it would be to do, but I would love to see little trails developed where the Bricktrons walk frequently, like when they’re mining.

you can start expand your game to whole world…for purchase! and do like mojang. if you are selling this stage of game it would cost already 15$ and every next stage grow the cost of game (i have grammar problems)

I must say it would more efficient if the blocktron could automatically cut other trees after assigning one or a squared selection.
