New for Twitch: people in chat can now vote for the avatar or hat you’ll wear by typing !avatar wolf or !hat viking.
CONTRAPTION MAKER BEST MODDED LEVELS UPDATE
Switch to 3rd person view (camera icon on the companion menu on your monitor) to show these off to people watching in the room, or use the Twitch tools or GIF recorder from our Social Update to share online. Change avatars or hats by grabbing the maquette and pressing the directional thumb pad left/right/up/down. We’ve been having a bunch of fun bringing new 3rd person avatars and hats into the game. We may be adding more soon, or you can make your own using the Steam Workshop (see modding instructions here). You can switch languages via the companion menu on your monitor. First up is Japanese, which we needed last month when we showed the game at the Tokyo Game Show (where we won an award for Best Tech!).
We’ve started localizing Fantastic Contraption into other languages. Try it out! Here are the Modding Instructions.
CONTRAPTION MAKER BEST MODDED LEVELS SKIN
We’re also using him to test out Steam Workshop modding, by letting players provide a replacement skin texture to change Neko’s color and appearance. Our favorite toolbox-cat Neko’s been given a bit of a makeover, with a toothy new grin. There’s a new way to keep track of your favorite Contraptions both local and online: give them a smooch to favorite them! This bedazzles them with hearts and will cause them to rise in the ranks on the “Online Contraptions for this Level” shelves. You could always tear your eyes out of your head, but now you can switch the companion-camera to follow your eyes around! Great for giving your viewers ringside seats to the entertainment. My favorite way to play is to scale the world down to about 25% and place it right on the floor, then I sit down on the carpet cross-legged and play like a toddler stacking blocks. Playing as a giant in a miniature world can give you a different perspective on levels. The tiny table filled with tiny tiny models is soooo cute. At the smallest scales everything appears in miniature. The Trashcan Frog has some new friends who proudly hold up the credit statues and other toys to play with. We’ve made some changes to the dark world to make everything more easily reachable. While wearing your HMD you can grab these to scale, raise and lower, move or rotate the world to fit your play space. You can force Fantastic Contraption into Kaiju Scale and reconfigure your space via the companion menu on your monitor:ĭuring Room Setup two batons appear in the middle of the level. If your VR hardware is configured for a small space, the Room Setup menu will appear automatically the first time you play. The controller flowers shrink down to smaller precision buds so you can more easily see what you’re doing in this tiny, detailed little world. You can scale from 50% of regular room scale size, which can be comfortably played while standing in one place, way down to 10% roomscale which feels like playing with a miniature set of contraption pieces about the size of Lego. Read on, or watch this TL DR video to get brought up to speed! We’ve packed a ton of new features into this update. Yes we do love room scale, but there are times and places where you just want to reach over your entire contraption without walking across the room. Because now you are the monstrous, lazer-breathing beast that hovers over Fantastic Contraption levels, the contraptions and wee Neko so tiny and innocent down there on the ground. This update is so big, it’s Godzilla big.
