They plan to release a 'mod' dubbed "Freebuild"
As far as I can tell, it's a new and improved TBM.
Here is a Garage Games topic introduction for freebuild.
Which I'm going to stop capitalizing because it's no longer a word >:C

I suppose I might as well introduce my project at this time as well so that my screenshots make sense. I'm sure most people who've been around GarageGames long enough are familiar with Blockland. What most of you probably aren't familiar with is a lot of the drama surrounding the Blockland community. Long before Blockland released it's Retail version, a thriving modding community grew up around it. One of the mod development teams, TBM, made no bones about the fact that they intended to make their mod a
better game than Eric Hartman's eventual Blockland Retail release,
and a lot of resentment sprung up between TBM and the mainline Blockland community.
When modders of from another "faction" stole code + artwork from TBM, the TBM developers at the time retaliated by including a script in TBM that would delete the stolen artwork from the other mod directories. Eric used this as an excuse to accuse TBM of planting a virus, and banned it's developers and players from the community.
K lol
Yeah sure, "NO NO IT WASNT I, I DIDNT DO IT. BUT ERIC WAS WRONG FOR BANNING THEM >:C"
"SO IM GOING TO MAKE THIS stuff"
What really pisses me off, is that people on GG think that this hasn't been done before.
Lego-Torque... thats awesome, I'm sure getting the actual building process is a pain but it looks and sounds like your actually going to have your own 3D lego set!
Keep up the good work, the screens bring back old memories. :)
HAHA No.
Congrats, you're going to steal ideas from retail, and rob Eric of models from v0002.
Plus, it looks like stuff.
What exactly have you improved?
Stop these shenanigans.
