Dynablocks.

"In the beginning there was an empty darkness. The only thing in this void was a black brick, Two-By-Two. Two-By-Two was the Alpha Brick, the First. Copied, pasted, and recolored a million times, Robloxia was built out of nothing from the images of Two-By-Two. These were the early days…" - John Shedletsky

Dynablocks was one of, if not the first version of the game creation platform we now know as Roblox. Due to the game being in such an early stage of development, it lacks many features that we would now take for granted and is almost unrecognizable compared to the game we know today. Anyone lucky enough to see Dynablocks for themselves would consider it a bleak place with eerie vibes given off by the game's completely blank and null look.

However, it is not these aspects that are of interest inside Dynablocks, but rather the strange anomalous occurrences that take place during gameplay. It is said that prolonged gameplay could cause symptoms ranging from mild irritation to profuse vomiting and even permanent personality changes.

These symptoms have been consistently reported by players who obtained the game when it was discovered and rediscovered on the Roblox servers numerous times. Perhaps coincidentally, one of these discoveries was leaked to the public by a forum poster just days before the April Fools Hack of 2012, causing speculation on whether the incident was simply a cover-up.

"I had a friend that got his hands on a version of Dynablocks in August of 2007, and it is like the One Ring without all the good parts. If you start feeling sick while you are messing around with it, exit the game immediately because it will turn you into Gollum before you know it." - Anonymous (identity expunged for witness' safety)

The following statements were made by members of Roblox's early development team, as well as those who were in contact with them in between the years of 2003 and 2005.

"If you are wondering how Roblox keeps people so engaged by the platform, "Beta Syndrome" is why."

-Former Roblox Developer

"Where Polybius failed, Roblox succeeded. A game designed from the start to toy with the mind and its feelings, It changes the player........And we lovingly hated it."

i was scrolling through through my discord dms, i got a notification with that classic “da-ding” i clicked on it and it brought me to a message that my best friend sent me saying “so, i found this old program on my brothers computer,  named “dynablocks” so i decided to send it to you, since ya know you’re a old roblox enthusiast and such” i clicked on the download link. And it brought me to a white screen in my browser, like all discord download links do, It started to download. It took like 3 seconds or something.. I couldn't remember. I clicked on the program on the right side of my browser, where all the downloads go. I was using bing at this time so it may be different to whoever is reading this. I got a window that said “dynablocks setup wizard” I got two buttons that said “quit” “continue” I--- of course I clicked the continue button. a window appeared on my screen that was extracting the files, When it was finished. I clicked the program called “dynablocks game” and I was brought to a full screen window with a blue gradient sky with white at the bottom.

It said “create an account” with that dynablocks logo on top of it. I clicked on the two white boxes with the labels “account” “password” i named the account “testaccountithink4494” and made the password “test”  it said “created!” it brought me to a website built into the program still in my browser, “C://Dynablocks/mainpage.html” the webpage looked identical to the dynablocks mockup from the roblox BLOXCON 2013 event. i clicked on a game called “bridge” It loaded, It looked like a “y” sideways, witch i think was supposed to be a bridge, the “bridge” was gray With 2 green bricks at the bottom on both sides, and a dark blue baseplate, The rendering was so buggy.

I clicked the button that said “Run” and the bridge just… fell.. Weird, right?? I clicked a brick but then my screen emitted red static for several seconds, Like--- two to three..?

The game stopped and it came up with an error screen with a black background and the Dynablocks logo. There was an early robot-sounding voice I could barely understand. I could kinda make out what it was saying. It said “currently, there is a lethal error in the client. We will be having to shut the webpage down until it gets fixed. If you are feeling any symptoms of Headaches, Melancholy, Tiredness, Exit the game now, or face the consequences. And Don't tell any trustable people about this situation, or anybody at all. Please Pretend this never happened.”

my screen then turned black and the program closed. “What the hell just happened?” I said.

I then opened bing and did some research about this “error”. Turns out in 2003-2006 roblox was experimenting with their game, changing the player, brainwashing them into doing things. i guess.
