📜 Past Updates
Block Tales Launches on Roblox
Spaceman Moonbase releases Block Tales on Roblox — a multiplayer turn-based RPG inspired by Paper Mario 64 and EarthBound. The game immediately gains traction with its nostalgic aesthetic and strategic card-based combat system.
Chapter 1 — The Adventure Begins
The opening chapter introduces players to the card-based battle system. Tutorial Terry teaches combat basics, and Cruel King serves as the first real boss challenge. Shedletsky appears as a secret optional boss tied to the Venomshank questline.
Chapter 2 — The Griefer & Bubonic Plant
Chapter 2 introduces Griefer as the primary antagonist. After defeating him, he impales himself with the Venomshank and transforms into the monstrous Bubonic Plant — a three-phase boss fight that became iconic. The Bubonic Plant OST now has over 3.2 million YouTube views.
Chapter 3 — Fear, Greed & The Tyrant
Chapter 3 introduces Hatred as the main story threat. Fear and Greed serve as mid-chapter bosses, while Jerry & Terry appear as a duo fight. The chapter expands the card system significantly with new elements.
Chapter 4 — Temple of the Red Sun
Demo 4 launches Chapter 4 with the pirate-themed Temple of the Red Sun. Captain Trotter serves as the mid-boss before the true final boss: The Ancients — a massive stone golem with ancient technology. Finn McCool appears as a secret superboss. Hatred lore is significantly expanded.
Chapter 5 + Story Rewrite — The Biggest Update Yet
After an 11-month development cycle, Demo 5 launches as the largest update in Block Tales history. The "Chapter 5 + Rewrite" update completely overhauls the storyline, introduces new game mechanics, and adds a massive endgame content layer. Chapter 5 features The Seventh Sanctum with Frostmaw as the final boss, alongside Arg'il as co-final boss. New superbosses include Supreme Mosquito, Mutant, Cruel King DX, and Azuri. The community has been intensely debating the rewrite changes — some praising the deeper lore, others missing the original narrative.
Developer Update — Story & Soundtrack Progress
Spaceman Moonbase announces via Fandom that the next chapter's story is finalized, characters are complete, and several soundtrack pieces are ready. The team acknowledges community patience while balancing development with college work.
