Wow. It has build-in physics that checks your structure stability.

    Exactly. I wanted to match the holding force of the studs, the way it would be if you actually built something with real bricks.

Mouse movement doesn't seem to work with Chrome on Mac.

Looks good though!

    Really? Interesting, I developed the whole game on a Mac in Chrome. Does it work in any other browser for you?

      Ditto - using the macbook trackpad, if relevant

        Thanks for the feedback! Does it happen in first person or third person? It works for me, even on the trackpad. Hm.

BTW: Except in the city center and on the streets, you can build anywhere, and everyone can collaborate. If you’d like to build on your own, buy a lot with in-game coins. Then only you can place and remove bricks there.

    I'm following the tutorial too. I bought a small piece of land in the tutorial area, but it won't let me build on it.

    At first I wanted to skip the buying of land for the moment and continue the tutorial. But I see step 12 is building on the land I bought.

    The only other option seems to be to skip the tutorial which I don't want to do. How is this supposed to work?

    I followed the tutorial, but keep getting "no building here" on land I purchased..? Thanks

      You can build wherever you want as long as it is not someone else's lot. But everyone can destroy your creation - unless it's on your own lot. Is this possible?
