Hello everyone! We wanted to share a new weapon type planned for Techblox, the 60mm Tank Cannon!

This is a projectile-based weapon that deals explosive damage. It can deal an incredible amount of damage and is super satisfying to use against vehicles that have lower structural integrity. Check out the video below which shows off the cannon in action and the new explosive VFX!

This weapon will have a short and long barrel version and a cosmetic variant which we’ll share soon.

Hey Everyone!

Several members of the team have been experimenting with an idea for a Zero-G game mode. We’ve always wanted to introduce game modes and maps that vary up the building in Techblox and this is an extreme example.

We wanted to let you know that this is a very early work in progress and does not feature any finished content in terms of art, lighting, environment or gameplay. This may not even make it into the game, but as we recorded some of our tests, we thought you’d be interested in seeing them!

Let us know what you think of a potential Zero-G game mode.

Hello everyone!



We've been working very hard on creating our first-ever online PVP combat game mode and wanted to share some details with you all!

Firstly I'd like to thank everyone who has added Techblox to their wishlist. There are over 17,000 of you and I can't wait for you all to get hold of the game when it launches on Steam. Please add to game to your wishlist if you have not done so!

Dedicated Servers expanded:
One of the most important features of Techblox, is that the servers will handle all online physics. This is a pretty intensive way to create accurate physics-based gameplay between players online. This allows us to create game modes and experiences unlike any other game in this genre and we're looking forward to pushing the limits of this system.

Players will be able to select and switch across three major regional dedicated servers:

- North America
- Europe
- Asia

Sandbox Game Mode
With an impressive server-based physics destruction system. Players are going to want to test the structural integrity of their vehicle across a number of obstacles. We've created the destruction playground.



This map contains a number of obstacles that range from bumps to test suspension, a wall ride transition to swinging hammers and grinders that cause ultimate destruction!





PVP Game Mode - Fort Kingston
The very first PVP map that we've designed is called Fort Kingston. In the centre is a large warehouse which is surrounded by grassland areas with patches of foliage. The map is inspired by older industrial and military-style locations



Death and Respawn
Whilst you'll be bringing in a machine to operate, players will score more points for eliminating the player character. Here's how it looks when a player character dies in-game:



But players will be able to respawn either back at their designated spawn point or in other game modes, close to where they have died.



The first-ever weapon we are introducing to the game is the 30mm Auto-canon. It is a medium-range weapon that fires two shots per second.



This can weapon can cause a huge amount of destruction. Depending on the game mode, you will need to follow a set firepower level. This avoids players from creating a hulking tower of 100 guns!



There will be a number of other weapon types coming to Techblox in the future so stay tuned for more info

We've been working on a few vehicle designs including a Robocraft-inspired machine and APCs. Check them out below:





Thank you for reading! We have some really awesome things lined up in the next several weeks and can't wait to share them with you.

We've been working on our weapons, damage and destruction systems and wanted to share a quick video with you all.

The structural integrity of your vehicle is determined by the materials you have chosen and their connections to other blocks. The vehicles in this video are made up of different materials. Each of them is being shot by two 30mm Autocannons, each with a fire rate of two shots per second:

We've been having a ton of fun testing the destruction system and can't wait for you all to get your hands on it!
