Is it really that baffling to see critical opinion without constructive criticism as a reply to some other comment?
If my intention was to leave constructive criticism I would have done it as a comment to the post itself. Kudos to you for writing good constructive criticism. In this case, though - I'm agreeing with a parent comment and giving my general impression about design.
And listen, if this project was done without any funding I wouldn't have said a word - I understand that you can't expect great design from a side-project made during weekends or evenings. However, in case of blockbuilder.org there was a kickstarter campaign which collected $11,205.
Based on github stats [1] there were only two active developers and only one of them was active within last couple of month.
Based on the same github stats there should be around 6-7k l

ines of code. Do you think that is something that should take more than 2 months of work and cost $11k?
What I'm getting to is the following - author of the project decided to work on it and in its current state to me it looks like $0 were spent on it. Again, I repeat that it only looks like that to me.
Given all that and the fact that project is considered as "finished" (Kickstarter: "Estimated delivery: Oct 2015") - I'd say it is a fail. I don't see people using it in its current state, therefore it did result in any positive outcome for the backers.
