Hello Robocrafters!

We wanted to let you know that the Steam Page for Techblox is now live! This is a game that we have been developing for a little over a year and we believe that a lot of Robocraft players will be interested in it.

Like Robocraft, it will be free to play, so please add it to your wishlist to be notified when it will be available to download:

Techblox is a new free to play vehicle and machine build-em-up where players can build powerful weaponized creations and compete against others online in PVP vehicular combat. There are also other game modes like racing and special events like football so there will be an assortment of different reasons to build, be it for combat, racing or even art!

Check out the latest trailer below:


Building in Techblox will feel pretty familiar to Robocrafters as players construct their machine within a garage bay. All of the machines are built from blocks.


The main differences in building with Techblox are joints, logic and the wiring. This allows creators to construct a machine with custom logic to create something truly unique. Perhaps they will want to create a machine that flips other creations, a giant hammer that swings down to deal damage or even rotating platforms. These parts offer an insane level of customisation and we are adding more parts throughout development.

When playing in a PVP combat game mode, damage and destruction is caused not only by weapons, but by collisions of any sort. If you drive into a truck at 200 miles per hour, your machine is definitely going to feel it and parts of it will satisfyingly fly off!


If your machine is damaged too much, it may begin to affect its performance. Wheels will fall off, engine components will no longer be attached, entire logic systems will lose their wiring! You must protect the integrity of your own machine, while trying to destroy your opponents.


Techblox will also be our first ever game to utilise server side physics. This means collisions with other machines should feel truly accurate and reduces any odd client to client physics issues when playing online. It will also allow us to develop new types of weapons and gameplay modes that are only possible with server side physics.

One of the other core features of Techblox is the ability to leave your machine. This means that players can create some really interesting machines that can be operated by multiple people at once. One player will be in full control of the steering, whilst another will man a turret and fire at opponents! We are looking to have up to 60 players on a single server with further optimisations.


We have a lot of plans for the future of Techblox and we hope that youll join us. Visit the Steam page and add it to your wishlist and youll be notified when the game is available to download.
