Need More Block

Release notes

Added Minecraft-style smooth lighting (ambient occlusion): soft contact shadows where blocks meet, so the world reads as solid and defined. Textures unchanged.

Release notes

Combined the loading screen with the branded NMB screen: NMB logo and progress on top, play NMR in the middle while you wait, then press Start to enter NMB.

Release notes

You can now play NMR (the runner game) while NMB loads; press Start to jump in when it is ready.

Release notes

Shows an NMB loading screen with a progress bar while the game starts, instead of a blank screen.

Release notes

Rebuilt the block textures into a clean voxel look — unified palette, seamless (no visible grid) surfaces, dense leaves, and proper wood grain on planks and logs. Replaces the rough 0.3.5 textures.

Release notes

Texture attempt (refined in 0.3.6).

Release notes

Smoothed the choppy walking and jumping. The renderer now interpolates between the physics updates (20 per second), so movement and jumping look as smooth as looking around, at your display refresh rate.

Release notes

Greatly reduced texture shimmer (distant blocks crawling) — mipmaps, smoother minification filtering, and edge anti-aliasing (MSAA) make the view much steadier and easier on the eyes, while nearby blocks stay crisp.

Release notes

On browsers that cannot start graphics, NMB now shows a clear reason and how to fix it instead of a black screen.

Release notes

Fixed a black screen that froze the game on privacy-hardened browsers (e.g. LibreWolf) — these now automatically fall back to a single-core run. Pressing ESC once during play now opens the pause menu immediately.

Release notes

Real multithreading — uses multiple CPU cores at once for smoother play. NMB now runs full-page on its own dedicated address, and your saved worlds are kept on this device. (Saves from before this version may not carry over.)

Release notes

Multithreading and major performance improvements — multi-core world gen/rendering, optimized rendering, adaptive quality, fullscreen, ESC pause.

Release notes

Fixed the inverted horizontal mouse look, the view flipping when looking straight down, and the cursor escaping the play area while looking. Also fixed Korean text showing as blank boxes on the Settings and Save/Load screens.

Release notes

NMB's engine has been rebuilt from the ground up, laying a new foundation for deeper updates to come. The core experience stays the same: explore a procedurally generated voxel world, dig and place blocks, watch the day–night cycle, keep worlds saved in your browser, and rely on in-game error codes and bug reporting.

Release notes

First public prototype. Dig and build in a procedurally generated voxel world, with in-game error codes and bug reporting.
