I don't know about Blockland being available on steam. It could be good, it could be bad. I just want the steam menu to be accessible in Blockland like it is in other games.

You can already do this by launching Blockland with steam.
You add it as a non steam game and there you go, just launch it from steam.

Steam launches the launcher.
The launcher launches Blockland.

It isn't hard to make Steam launch BlocklandLauncher.exe isntead of Blockland.exe.

Really? When I tried that last time it didn't work. Blockland launched but the steam features didn't work in-game. I'll try again, I might have just missed something

no that is what should be happening

only way to bypass this is bypassing the launcher

wait what- I was about to say that the steam overlay works in-game now, now I'm confused.. lol

Also since it seems to be working, is there a way to get it to start with steam every time I hit the BL icon?

hmm, that seems to work fine for other games in my library, but when I do that with Blockland nothing happens. I get the message saying a new desktop shortcut has been created, but there's nothing new there..

For all the people talking how the launcher wouldn't work. Im pretty forgetin sure Badspot could work on the launcher if he wants to put his game on Steam. You act as if Badspot is completely helpless.
