I busted out my old machine earlier today, looking through old files. Oh no, I've found some screenshots of the old days... The screenshots are from Jan 2006. It looks like I made an army of Bob Dole bots that apparently walked forward through an obstacle course? I do remember the stretched and rotated bricks of ancient times, though!
I've also found the Rise of Blockland server files. Not the ver2 leaked ones, but the actual v1 ones given directly to me by Mr.Wallet back in the day. Dated July 2008. Cool stuff.
As an aside, does Blockland have a central and/or popular discord?
