Blockland's development was heavily influenced by user mods created during the open beta stage. Some features that can be seen in the retail edition that were influenced by user mods include: letter/print bricks, the brick selection system and interactive bricks to an extent.

The large number of user mods also led to the development of a plugin add-on system, making it much easier to manage the large amount of user created content available for the game.

Eric was approached by LEGO for a job but declined, and then the game, originally free, was developed into a retail product. Blockland is still updated with content/patches/bug fixes.

Seriously, what?

[laremere]

Lego's deal was bad, and roblox would be here anyway.

Lego basically wanted Badspot to move out to Denmark or whatever and listen to the ideas of big sweaty kids all day as they told him how to make his game.

Didn't Badspot look into it but they never called him back?

Also, the whole point of the topic is this..

Yea, a few things in Retail were first in one user mod or another, but retail has blown away the quality that was done in said mods.

[Dyed Brownie]

You guys still aren't getting it.

were influenced by user mods

[Falcondude]

RTB, etc? I don't know much from the 0002 era

[General Omega]

The saving feature, if I remember correctly, was created due to mods like RTB.

All of the mods that are similar to retails where made AFTER badspot showed those retail features around....
