### Genre

Platformer

The Code.org version of Placeholder was where the game started off. From there, various projects were started. Though Code.org Edition didn't last very long due to there not seeming to have any movement related code.

## System requirements

A browser that can handle the game's mess of code.(Recommended to use TurboWarp for the best gameplay)

Placeholder: Station Edition is the first version of the game to release. With a total of 7 rooms and 3 more in the works, the gameplay gets difficult fast. The game has multiple different mini updates for various holidays.

* **Lit April Fools** - A mini update that occurs on 1st April and ends the beginning of the next day.
* **Bluck's B-Day** - A mini update that would occur either during August or only on 25th August.
* **Blockoween** - A mini update that would occur on Halloween.
* **Squaremas** - A mini update that occurs on Christmas.

Station Edition is made for any device that has a keyboard with at least WASD or Arrow Keys.
Placeholder: Station Edition is currently ranked first to have the messiest code out of all the versions. It's a miracle that the game works most of the time.

## System requirements

A strong browser (regular browsers can play it, though gameplay might be slow on Scratch)(Recommended to use TurboWarp for the best gameplay)

Placeholder: Test Project is the second version of the game to release. Test Project is exactly what it's said to be, it's a project where different ideas are tested to be implemented into the official game. The Test Project has many things that the official one doesn't, such as language translations. This version has a total of 5 rooms, all the same but with different decorations for different holidays.

* **Original** - The original room design. No decorations.
* **Lit April Fools** - The April Fools room design. Not much is different about it.
* **Bluck's B-Day** - Assumed to have birthday decorations put up.
* **Blockoween** - Assumed to have Halloween decorations up.
* **Squaremas** - The Christmas room design. Covered in snow and has some Christmas decoration.

If you look in the game's files, there are "controller hints" for different controller types. Leading to believe that controller support may be on the way.

## System requirements

Placeholder: Pocket Edition is a version of the game that is said to be released when v0.1.0 Beta comes out for Station Edition. Not much information about this version has been talked about by Fuurvent.

## Trivia

* One of the Menu Messages references Minecraft but in it's own way.
* The blue square's actual name is Bluck.
* The "Snapsion" idea was heavily influenced by Minecraft's "Snapshot" versions.
* On Lit April Fools 2023, all the menu music was reversed.
* The music for the game is mostly composed of separate Chrome Music Lab parts and put together through BandLab.
