Hi Mechanics!
Creative mode Update 0.5.0 is finally here!

New creative mode worlds
Welcome to the new and updated creative mode! Not only did we make it look better to go hand in hand with the survival world but we also finally added water to the creative terrain. All trees can now be cut down and rocks can be drilled. Excellent for testing out ideas for your creations in Survival mode. We also gave the flat world an updated ground texture.
The new one should give a much better sense of movement and speed.

New capsules
Both bot and animal capsules have been added to creative mode.
Place them on the ground then shot or hit a capsule to release them into your world.
There is a lot of fun things you can do with these. Check the useful chat commands below.

Bot combat
Paint bots in different colors and see them attack each other.
This new feature ... Read more
