#Blocksworld youtube software#

Linden added new software in December 2015 which included worlds achieving the вЂњEliteвЂќ (2000 plays or more) status or higher to be permanently pay-to-play. To try and turn Blocksworld around, Linden Labs started releasing silly updates that nobody liked. It is also known that Linden has legal quarrels over the owner(s) of the once-popular website for copyright-infringement over Second Life, LindenвЂ™s biggest source of income which one cause on to speculate this would be another reason to cease the funding of Blocksworld and itвЂ™s servers. As more players lefts and some became inactive with lack of updates, money from players purchasing coins and advertising revenue eventually decreased enough one could speculate that Linden pulled the plug on the servers because of this. This led to multiple popular players leaving, as it was all they did.ДЄnother significant factor to the server shutdown was lack of funds from the app itself. This was a popular Blocksworld hobby, until the sets were removed from the shop as Linden lost the rights when they didnвЂ™t renew and pay Hasbro, the owner of MLP and Transformers, to keep using them. These included blocks to make ponies and Transformers. The only updates were patches to keep the server running and small moderation.Д«efore 2017, My Little Pony and Transformer sets were available to players.

Linden Labs didnвЂt do anything about it for a long time, but eventually they banned players such as Joey Slikk.ДЄfter 2017-ish, Linden Labs stopped updating Sets and Challenges, which left the community in a state of limbo.

Many players had made themselves infamous by uploading adult content to Blocksworld. Linden Labs did not actually enforce rules that declared these worlds as вЂњbad.вЂќ Many people thought this ruined the PG theme of Blocksworld, and as it caused way too much unnecessary drama, many people stopped playing due to it. One of the things that started the decline of Blocksworld were the вЂњWarsвЂќ that made-up governmental groups would declare on one another and would publish worlds depicting the other group getting beaten up with violence. The last of these kinds of contests were sadly held in 2017. Community Challenges would be released on weekly/monthly basis, which featured a contest to see who could build the best world based off of a theme, determined beforehand by the Linden Labs Employees. Decline of BlocksworldДЇrom 2013 until 2017-ish, Linden Labs continued to see Blocksworld grow not only as a game were you could build anything, but also as a social platform. In 2013, Blocksworld was purchased by Linden Labs, a development group that has since primarily focused on their controversial video game Second Life. Players could also purchase coins with real life currency and could also buy вЂњSetsвЂќ that would contain special blocks you couldnвЂ™t get anywhere else. By putting blocks together and coloring them, players would be able to make a fun game with an array of coding tools. Players would use blocks, which they could buy with coins, a currency made by having people play your game or buy models that you built. LetвЂ™s look at what made Blocksworld spiral into darkness.Д«locksworld was a creative game available on iOS devices, and later in its life, a version on Steam. What was once a creative, bustling game has been reduced to a wasteland. 3.2 1 World Per Day Limit/ 3 Models Per Day Limit.2.4 Loss of Rights to MLP & Transformers.
