Faces, we are putting this on a hiatus for an undisclosed amount of time, so we may start up again.



The adventure becomes Blocko


An ongoing project by Squideey and Eksi





Myst is a popular graphic adventure game, released in 1993 by Cyan, Inc. Its use of pre-rendered images made it graphically advanced for its time. It remained the best selling game until 2002, and is still revered as one of the greatest computer games of all time. RealMYST, an enhanced real-time 3D remake of Myst, was released in November 2000, adding the Rime age.

Shipgate now rises and sinks in the same spot. The dock looks much more like the game, and no more mysterious sideways movements.


With the power of Tophius, God of Bricks, Squideey brings salvation to the library.

Cool, MYST is one of my favorite games! I hope this turns out to be really great!

Coolio :D
Also, inb4hawhawmyidislowerthanurlo vesi

Looks nice. Going to do any puzzles? Or just for looks?

We're planning to make everything on the main island functional, including the tower, the gates, the vault and everything. I do events and Squideey helps me find a new approach if it doesn't work out quite right. If we build the four ages, though, we probably won't be able to do that for them, unless they're really severely tweaked.
