InformationGood news! We're back from the grave after
being in a coma for a few years. I've come back to this idea of multiple servers clumped in one, for a few reasons. When it comes to projects in Blockland, I tend to jump around very quickly, juggling ideas. Well, this will allow me to work on multiple projects at once, and create new ones whenever needed. The Hub is very similar to a Rotations server-- several gamemodes, with each gamemode being selected by votes cast by players. Now, why don't we see the gamemodes in our selection so far?
GamemodesPlagueThis is a gamemode inspired by the Black Death. At the start of the round a Plague Giver is selected. From the get-go, they already have this infectious disease. They are able to pass it along with a left click, making for some very hide-and-go-seek-like gameplay. The humans win by avoiding getting the infection long enough for the timer runs out, while the plague wins by infecting all the humans. Here, have a GIF:
This details the infection process.
When you get the disease, your body starts deteriorating.
At the end of this animation, you fully succumb to the plague and you are able to infect other players.
Note: The details of these gamemodes, and their core mechanics, may change over time.
HauntedAt first glance, this gamemode is simply a regular TDM. But yet, as we zoom in the microscope of reality we see that something very special happens-- when you die. Here, let me detail the process in a realm of
moving pictures.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen. You longingly glazed at
a ghost!
Whenever you die, you do not simply respawn, willy-nilly.
No! You must go, and scout, and find a corpse to inhabit-- for you are a ghost.
This is another example of pure homicide. Just, to please your senses!
But uncle blockhead, you shout. How do I stop being a gay ghost?
Well, that's simple. You find a corpse,
that isn't yours, and you click!
This meaniningful gesture is
my representation of possessing a dead body.
Other FeaturesI've completed a trail system, complete with seven (and growing!) trails. If you have an idea for a trail, tell me! Here are the current ones:
Release date?The date this entire thing goes out to the public depends on how fast we can assemble a team to build, and how fast I can finish coding gamemodes. Expect it soon(ish)!
So, you're hiring?Yep! But, I'm only hiring a special type of person. You. No, not you. The other guy.
Okay, you get the picture. I am a programmer, and pretty much nothing else. I am in dire need of a person to build everything, the supplier of eye candy. They are one of the most important parts of the server. So, just fill out this application, and post it here on the forums, and you'll be off! All builders get admin/super admin based on contribution.
(this will likely be updated in the dastardly near future)

Do you have any previous experience?:

I'm not a builder, but how do I help?Well, even though two gamemodes are already made, we need ideas for more!
They have to be unique, and not copy-cats of anything that's currently existing.
Even more importantly, they have to be fun to play! If you provide an idea
that we end up using, you
will get credited for it somewhere.
