Here are some group games that could be created and played in Blankos Block Party, but in the case of some of them, you’d have to keep score yourself until they make a “score counter” and assign points to the teams and team members.
In the meanwhile, just remember the score, like you’re playing tennis or badminton, right? But don’t be like the tennis players, to whom love is nothing.

That’s just a few examples of games I could build in that environment right now, today, and make ’em work, even though the mechanics are not there at the moment, like a scorekeeper and a ball or flag tracker and a ball or flag triggered goal or capture point.
How would YOU accomplish each of these WITH ONLY THE EXISTING ITEMS available now in your inventory?
How is it possible to make such games?
Actually, just about everything you could mention is some sort of variant on “Donkey Kong” or “Ping Pong” or “Pin the Tail on the Donkey”, or bust the pinata.
One way or another, things have to happen in a predictable way that can turn into a score for a team.
The shooter seems easy and obvious, but could you make an Old Western set in which two players can sling their guns?
In this case, scoring is easy. If you’re dead, you lost the round, and it shows onscreen. If you survive, you get scrambled anyway by the game timer, so no matter what, you change spaces, which is, technically, dying.
Even a slight dimensional shift can result in serious organic setbacks, but I digress. Let’s see how we can exploit this little idea of a game, shall we?
Suppose YOU take one of the ideas mentioned above and make that happen in your Blankos Block Party, the one you made.
Don’t know how?
Tune in this very morning as is, at 6:30 and you’ll find out how, and what’s more, you’ll get help actually creating a world of your very own making, in which friends can come and play.
