The name is kind of just a placeholder for the mean time lol. I wanted to start giving the game it's own unique identity, especially with the first demo release approaching. Speaking of which...
Update: 4/15/18
New Name
"BuildScape" has been chosen as the name for the project (at least for the mean time).
Graphics
Made slight improvements to brick shaders and textures. Bricks now have a more "plastic" feel to them. You can change graphics settings on game startup (such as quality and screen resolution).
Brick Selection
A method for cycling through all bricks has been included. You can choose between the 5 different brick categories in-game by using the alpha numeric keys 1-5, and then use your mouse scroll button to choose between bricks within that category.
Repainting & Removing bricks
You can repaint planted bricks by using the E key, and remove planted bricks using X. Removed bricks will have physics applied to them, and can be moved around by the player (or pushed / repainted using X or E). Interactive bricks removed from builds automatically despawn after 20 seconds. The infinite floor plane can also be repainted using E.
Pre-Alpha Public Release
If no major issues arise, I'm aiming to release a public pre-alpha demo on Discord by next weekend. The demo will include building, painting and removing bricks (individual brick physics); the floor plane of the map will be infinite. Note: The game is not finalized nor fully optimized by any means, this is still pre-alpha.
A windows version will be available, as well as a web-based version for everyone else (if your browser supports HTML 5, i.e. Firefox). The web version will not have the same graphics quality, but will allow other members of the server to at least try the game.
Demo Control Scheme
-Controls can be remapped on game startup, under the Input tab.
-Designed to work for computers both with or without the number pad.
A S D W or the Arrow Keys will move your player around, TAB will switch between 1st / 3rd person.

Numpad 1 2 3 or , . / will change the brick positioning / shifting methods.
Alpha 1 2 3 4 5 will switch between the 5 brick categories, your mouse scroll wheel will allow you to cycle all bricks within them.
