world

A new world with the BlatBlock world type:

The BlatBlock Generator appears at (0, 0, 0)
The world is completely void except for your starting platform

Each layer contains different blocks and entities with varying spawn chances
Progress through layers by collecting enough blocks to unlock the next tier
