Hello everyone, we are in less than a month away from release next August 5th, but there updates don’t stop to arrive.
Your feedback, support all these years and ideas are shaping the game experience to be the best, and even when I want to put all of them before launch, I need to deliver them in the smarter way possible for the game and for my mental health♥️
Before continuing to talk about the update, I want to invite you to be part of the Steam Keys Giveaways happening on different social media this week: Bluesky - Instagram - Tiktok
We are almost at 21k wishlist🥳
Back to the update(1.0.0-6_7_2026-0), the biggest addition today is the Rewards for puzzles, now progressing through the Puzzles and cleaning them up is going to unlock some items for the build mode. Cleaning the wood chips has been improved in many ways and now includes its own bar for you to know when you finish. And there is more:
What changed:
Build: Deleted items now leave some wood chips that disappear shortly after automatically.
Puzzles: Carving item icon now stays in one place in the center of the item.
Puzzles: Progressing through the Puzzles now Unlock items for the Build Mode.
Puzzles: Cleaning the wood chips created on the Puzzles now Unlock items for the Build Mode.
Puzzles: Multiple improvements make the wood chips clean up easier and prevent some issues.
UI: New progress bar added in Puzzles to know the progress of cleaning up the wood chips.
UI: Puzzle selector Puzzle cards now shows the rewards available in the Puzzle.
UI: New Menu and Start Screen backgrounds and animations.
UI: Changing UI background colors now updates smoothly.
UI: Little thumbnail showing the pictures you just took style updated.
Gamepad: Onboarding tutorial Gamepad version added.
OpenGL: It is not recommended to use this mode since it is going to bring a series of limitations preventing you from enjoying the full experience, but I understand this is not going to prevent some players from trying, for that some color adjustments and light updates have been applied to this mode.
Bugs Solved:
Bug Puzzle: Wood Chip falling under the Items (especially items with "floors") after the menu was opened/closed.
Bug Puzzle: Camera does not focus automatically when starting the puzzle.
Bug UI: Multiple issues regarding the way dragging items out of the catalog were fixed, one in particular broke the game while grabbing the item icon and changing game states.
Bug UI: Changing items catalog categories with Gamepad was deselecting the category button and creating an unexpected experience when moving in the UI afterwards.
And of course, some items additions:
Thank you for playing and sharing your feedback with me this first month of the Demo release to make Block Block Block even a better experience. There is still a lot to put in and is coming together.
Don't forget to share your creations, and if you have a little extra time give a review for the Demo, something that could do wonders for the project.♥️
Best,
Aender Lara
