Eden - World Builder

I love this game and I wouldn’t want the flame to die out. I noticed that the loading sign shows up more frequently when you are moving within your world. Other than that I would recommend this game and hate to see it be abandoned.

I can’t believe this game got an update but I am all here for it

I’ve used the app for years but recently the worlds I’ve been using(including download ones) just completely clear out and I loose a ton of work. I’m super frustrated because I just lost a world I’ve been working on for a while and now I have to start completely over. I don’t know if this is a bug or there needs to be a new update but it needs to be fixed.

I have played this game on iPad/iPhone for YEARS. At least 10-12 years on and off. It was always such a fun game. I have tons of worlds built and downloaded. Then I get on to this new update.. holy terrible. Every one of my worlds look completely different. It looks very fake/cartoony compared to what it did look like. For example the steel beam block. It used to look like an actual steal beam now it just looks like a plastic block with 4 little holes drilled in the corners. NOTHING and I mean NOTHING about this new update looks good at all or makes this game more enjoyable. Couldn’t they have added more blocks or the options for more colors or something besides this terrible change of colors/blocks. I can’t even hardly play it now with the new style. It’s just not the same game. Whoever the developers are, you dropped the ball big time and need to change it back to the old style!!

When this was first released it was great, but it's been changing in recent updates. It used to be its own thing, but it's slowly becoming more and more of a minecraft knockoff. Each update also makes it slower and more buggy. Ideally, return to v1.7 (or release it as a separate app). The red creatures, general lack of creatures, health, slow loading, bugs with sharing worlds, unreliable roller coasters, etc in v2 seem different to the original concept of a fun sandbox game.

I just wanted to say that this was my favorite game growing up (I am 21 now). I built whole worlds and I remember showing them off to my friends and they couldn’t believe I was able to do that. This game activated my creativity, and I am very grateful for it. Thanks!

First of all, this game is a big part of my childhood, thanks for all the fun memories ❤️ I have two suggestions (which are probably others’ suggestions which should be added): 1. Flying. It could make you go faster, and unlike Minecraft you should be able to clip through blocks. I am not sure how to toggle flying, apart from a double jump, maybe a switch in the in-world settings or..? 2. Movable blocks. You can push them around, and they can move indefinitely on ice blocks. You should also be able to place regular blocks on top of them, so players can make cool stuff like vehicles. I’m not sure if reviews are the right place for suggestions, but I hope this is seen (it might not be), sorry for the long review but 5 stars for your great game.

For 8 years I’ve played this game so much after 2.0 came out. Shortly after 2.0 came 2.1 which was the last update for 8 years. In 2.1, those 8 years got me so used to the control hitboxes, the fast loading, smooth gameplay, and the creatures. Throughout the years I kept improving on building and having fun. Soon, I began to make my own mini games like flappy batty, and many more. Over the years, I got so used to the controls, and made my own mini games that kept getting better. I made games like a random game where you walk through a library, Box Dog, My Husky Roxy, and Evil Angela. This made Eden - world builder practically my own game engine. I continued to make more and more games, or even giant structures! When I tried Eden - new dawn, it felt slow and laggy, so I decided to stick with the old Eden. However, when 2.2 came out, I saw that the icon changed. I looked on the App Store and saw the update. Once I opened the app, it was like Eden - new dawn. The game never felt the same. At least I can use the classic textures, but the things that slowed me down at gameplay include the fact that the jump button is moved slightly to the left, the loading is slower and there’s more lag. Before 2.2 I predicted an update that would add tons of new blocks, creatures, and even multiplayer. I always wanted an update to the game that would add lots of new features similar to 1.5 or 2.0 did. But 2.2 means that building my massive structures will take forever. Maybe it would’ve been better if the game never got updated from 2.1, I don’t know if I regret wanting an update to this game but 2.2 makes the game unplayable.

I grew up playing this game and each update has been a major downgrade. The latest update completely changed the look of all my worlds, have no desire to play the game anymore unless it gets fixed!

This game was in a fine state for years. While it didn’t try and compete with any other games it was fun to just come back and play every once in a while to look back on the worlds I made when I was younger. A new update was released recently which added a texture pack feature, a nice addition but also bizarrely removed and adjusted some features leading to old worlds looking incredibly ugly. First, all creatures that were previously placed in a world appear to have been wiped from existence. This removed years of work I put into my worlds that heavily used creatures to act as important characters or civilians in a world. Secondly, the lighting system in this game has changed massively. All lights now have a massively extended range making everything incredibly bright. This is especially problematic as the “dark sky” mode always had such an amazing atmosphere with the dim lights of the old version. The lighting changes appear to be more like a bug though as when looking at the point cubes you can clearly see the model is broken. Finally and least importantly, the buttons on screen at all times appear to have been changed in some way that they are harder to hit now. I think the resolution of the game has changed or something. If the developers read these reviews, I would beg of them to revert this update. If that isn’t possible, please, fix the lighting so every world that has lights doesn’t look like the middle of a city.
