Patreon Builds

Everything listed here are builds that were exclusively released to the game's Patrons. Starting December 13th 2018, after the plans for a Kickstarter fell through, McPig decided to fund the game entirely through Patreon with one of the rewards giving Weenie tier and Cool tier Patrons access to Patreon builds that would get released without a schedule.

Between January 12th and July 3rd, 2019, builds were released through Dropbox. Starting with the release of Blue Block Land v2, all builds would be uploaded to itch.io.

The ability to subscribe ended in December 2022 as development was wrapping up.

These are regular Patreon builds released by McPig.

Level Editor

These are Level Editor builds released by Sertif, with approval and additional resources given by McPig. The Level Editor is a series of builds that, as the name suggests, adds a level editor to the game, using Boss v12 as a base. No level editor features would be featured in the final game, but some of its functionality was restored in Pumpkin Hunt, hinting at a possible comeback of the Level Editor for the final game.

Playtest Builds

Starting on February 2021 with the release of Playtest, builds were released on a now deleted itch.io page behind a password up until October 28th, 2022. Around November 2022, as development was starting to wrap up, builds were released on a now deleted playtest branch on Steam until release.
