Hello to all the fans of building, modeling, and creating!
I’m beyond excited to share a special milestone with you today! 🎉 This moment is particularly close to my heart because it marks the very first closed playtest session of Outside the Blocks—and the honor went to none other than... my wife! ❤️
She’s been my biggest supporter throughout the development process, and she just completed her first playthrough. Her diorama creation? An incredible "Abandoned mansion on a dark, rainy night." 🌧🏚️
Watching her build it was a surreal experience — especially since I had to stay quiet the whole time to avoid jumping in with tips! I’m so proud of her work, and seeing her fully immersed in the gameplay was a special moment for me as a developer.
The current build is still an internal test, so it’s not ready for public release just yet. But the feedback from these early sessions is already helping me shape and improve the game. I can't wait to smooth out the rough edges and eventually let all of you dive in to create your own dream dioramas.
Thanks for being a part of this journey, and I’ll see you in the next Steam post!
