Poly Bricks news & patch notes

We're back with another update, fixing plenty of bugs but most importantly adding support for Steam Workshop!

You can save individual builds, test them as a set, and upload them to Workshop for other players to enjoy.

Or, of course, just download additional sets made by the community!

We hope you enjoy this update, and please let us know what other things you would like to see in Poly Bricks!

Thanks to everyone who has been enjoying building in Poly Bricks and has provided feedback and bug reports.

Today's update, 1.0.1, addresses some issues that were present in a few sets, specifically Clocktower, Frog, and Firetruck.

Also a bug to do with build progress checks failing in some circumstances.

We're hard at work implementing Workshop support and hope to have it ready by the end of the month.

Thanks again!

Exciting times!

The game is now available for purchase, with a 7-day launch discount of 20%.

We hope you enjoy the game and look forward to hearing your feedback so we can keep improving and adding new features and content.

Happy brick building!

The demo for Poly Bricks is now available!

We've been working hard to get to this big milestone, and we hope you enjoy what we have so far.

There's still lots more to come but we hope the core experience of brick building and solving puzzles is a good combo.

Please let us know what you think!

Hi fellow brick enthusiasts!

Today we wanted to show off some of the recent work that has been done on the game's development, while also taking a look at how sets are made in-game.

Brick Printer

First let's take a look at the Brick Printer, it's the core of how we make the sets in-game, but it's also the main tool that players use in Creative mode to make their own sets, we've recently really expanded what it can do.

The Brick Printer has a number of different base shapes (Cube, Cylinder, Triangle, Pyramid, Trapezoids, Quarter Cylinder, etc.), each base shape exposes some parameters (Height, Width, Diameter, Thickness, Radius, etc.) which allow players and set designers to customize the bricks they're making.

Custom Pieces

Our set designers aim to use the Brick Printer as much as possible, but in some cases they need a very specific custom piece, so it's also possible to import 3D models made in external software.

For example in this set, all the pieces laid out around the car are made with the Brick Printer, leaving only a handful to be implemented manually (Wheels, Grilles, etc.).

In-game, it will also be possible for players to import their own 3D models to make custom-shaped bricks.

Instructions Maker

After completing the build, if we want to give it to other players to enjoy building too, it's necessary to design an instructions manual for them.

The game offers an easy-to-use "WYSIWYG" editor ("What You See Is What You Get") to decide which steps come when, and how they are presented as an animated page to the set builder.

Here's a GIF showing the end animated result of some instructions steps defined by the set designer.

Conclusion

We hope this brief look into set design was entertaining, development on the game is going well and we hope to share more soon.

Thanks!

We're excited to finally reveal what we've been quietly building: Poly Bricks — a cozy, creative brick-building game coming to Steam.

Poly Bricks is designed to capture the joy of building sets on your bedroom floor. Follow step-by-step instructions to assemble detailed sets brick-by-brick, relax into the flow, and rediscover that satisfying childhood rhythm of construction.

In Story Mode, you’ll work through dozens of curated sets across a range of themes and difficulty levels. Once complete, proudly display your creations in your customizable virtual room and grow your personal collection over time.

But that’s just the beginning.

Poly Bricks also puts a strong emphasis on community and creativity. Through online multiplayer, you can collaborate in real time with friends, building sets together or designing completely original creations.

Using an in-game 3D printer, players can craft their own bricks from a variety of base shapes—rectangles, slopes, cylinders, trapezoids, and more. You can even import your own 3D models and custom stickers to truly make each set your own.

We have big plans for Poly Bricks and plenty of ideas still in development. We can’t wait to share more with you.

If you like what you see, please add Poly Bricks to your Wishlist to follow our progress and get notified of future updates.

Thanks for being part of the journey.
