Jenga Blocks Sandbox MMOScreenshot 2021-10-02 164509.png

Controls:

  • WASD - move
  • Mouse move - look around
  • LMB - place block
  • RMB - delete block
  • Scroll - rotate block
  • PageUp/PageDown - change block size
  • Enter - change your name
  • T - toggle showing player names

Server is not optimized at all and starts lagging after a few thousand of blocks placed, so I will reset it sometimes

I think the MMO has developed beyond just playing Jenga.... 😄 People were building houses, building arches, accidentally wrecking things, and then I built a house. Didn't get to finish a roof because the game refused to let me make/destroy blocks once everyone else left.

I actually managed to balance a roof!

I love how LMB creates and RMB destroys, since the controls seem to be suggesting creation is better than destruction. It's the opposite of Minecraft, where the game seems to be encouraging you to destroy blocks and kill creatures.

@peace-of-cake-games the reason you couldn't place anything anymore is that you played during server restart, saw you in the game :P

Ah, thanks for clarifying @kuviman . I'll have to play again later to finish the house this time!

Really cool concept and execution, the sounds are really good and satisfying, and even though the graphics are simple they match the concept of it being a jenga mmo

Could play this for hours, tons of fun. The building restrictions inspire creativity. Thank you for this wonderful game.

Came in to try it. Ended up buiding for an hour. Great game and super good execution!

A Jenga MMO, that's brilliant. It's not much of a game, but as a sandbox it's great.

This blows my mind that you can make an online game for a jam, really cool!

Pretty fun! Didn't realize it was multiplayer because there was no one else on.
