Welcome to this week's blurb!
As you can see, the banner isn't animated this week, cause there's no way I'm making a second frame for this banner with how detailed it is. Hope you guys like it! Unfortunately, I feel this piece is still unfinished, so I'll most likely update it further into this week while working on the next blurb. I've put more than 20 hours into working on that banner, and it looks like I'm not done with it quite yet.
This week, we got some information on the release date for Brickadia! That will be talked about in the speculation column for this week.
With that out of the way, let's get into this week's community content!
Add me to QA NOW or he gets it, devs:

Now we arrive at this week's user column!
Each week I will be asking members of the Brickadia community a question relevant to Brickadia at the moment, whether that be in regard to development, speculation, or even just hopes and desires surrounding the game itself.
The question this week is:
If you had to guess a specific date in the coming months, when do you think Brickadia could come out?
"My guess is between August-September but this is supposed to be a specific date so I'm gonna go with September 3rd"
"brickadia EA release date:
behind you️"
"In all honesty I dont think Brickadia is going to reach its deadline, they might make it to 2024, but with their track record of delaying things and producing buggy / unfinished features I dont believe it'll get released anytime soon, they also dont show like any progress or development on what they are doing so..."
So, as it turns out, we have news on the release date for Brickadia!
Based on comments made by Zeblote, the founder of Brickadia, we now have a more refined scope as to when Brickadia is going to come out!

Given that we are slowly marching into the Q3 of 2023 and that we have basically entered into Summer of this year, it would stand to reason that we would have to get some degree of news eventually. Now we got a small bit of news!
While it is quite unfortunate that Brickadia will not be releasing within the next two months, at least players will be glad to know that there is a particularly specific date in mind. The question comes into mind, though, whether or not the developers of Brickadia will be able to make that specific deadline in the first place. If I had to guess, I would assume that Brickadia would come out during the latter end of Q3 2023, likely towards September given their current progress and the features they want to add. While it had been a while that we've received news on the developer-side of things, as it usually tends to be, there was actually a social media video released by Brickadia talking about water and environments: Brickadia Twitter
Could this be a possible clue on what the next big feature might be? For one, considering the biggest emphasis for this game has been physics, vehicles, and behavior scripts, and given that we've gotten a physics demo already, I would imagine that either behavior scripts or vehicles may be showcased yet. And given that we have gotten a video about environments, I would imagine that vehicles may be next. Why would I speculate that?
Recently, there was discussion in regard to boats and the like in Brickadia, in which we recieved a bit of news as to how boats could function in-game:

As of right now, it's clear that we will be getting boats, but as to whether or not that's explicitly being worked on right now hands-on isn't entirely clear. What is clear is that physics and behaviors are being worked on. While I imagine behaviors is thoroughly being tested, I wouldn't be surprised if we got a major news update from the developers regarding vehicles of any kind. But at this point, I'm just doing mental gymnastics, so who knows?
And that's all for this week of the durb blurb!
