The logo of DynaBlocks Beta
DynaBlocks is one of three names to be considered for Roblox during its early development.[1] The domain "dynablocks.com" was registered by Jim Stevens on December 12, 2003.[2] The name was later scrapped in favor of Roblox on January 30, 2004.[3] Until late 2019, "dynablocks.com", "dynablox.com", and "dynablock.com" were all used as redirects to roblox.com.[4] As of early 2022, these domains are no longer in use.
The earliest recorded accessible version of the site is archived at the Wayback Machine, albeit with missing CSS and asset files.[5]
At ROBLOX BLOXcon 2013, during the "State of ROBLOXia" presentation by CEO David Baszucki, an early mockup of the DynaBlocks website was shown.[6] It includes a reference to GoBlocks as well, further confirming that GoBlocks, DynaBlocks, and Roblox were the three names that were considered.
