Blockland (Video Game) | comment |
As described in the quote, Blockland is first-person building game with online multiplayer, created by Eric "Badspot" Hartman using the Torque Engine. It is not so much a game in and of itself as it is a powerful tool for creating interactive worlds and mini-games, using the in-game building utilities, eventing systems, and a plethora of user-created add-ons. As of December 2013, it is available on Steam. | |

Accidental Aiming Skills | |
Blockland (Video Game) / int_2311e2de | comment |
Accidental Aiming Skills: Due to the 'traveling' nature of weaponry, many times a player won't so much shoot their target as their target walks into their bullet. What makes this different from outright 'leading' is many times the victim won't even be in their aggressor's line of sight in the first place, often walking out from behind walls or out of cover to be hit by a stray round. | |

Stuff Blowing Up: In minigames, almost every brick except baseplates can be fakekilled with high powered weaponry like the Rocket Launcher. When "killed", the blocks gain client-side physics, and will respawn in a few seconds. | |
