This is such a fun game. Highly recommended, especially if you're someone that's introducing MR and VR games to for the first time.

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We don’t shy away from sharing our process with the world, because it shows we’re human. We’re imperfect artists who put our all into the work, and we let that passion flow onto every screen around the world 🌊
Tl;dr If it's silly to attempt to solve a semi-complex algebra problem in your head, it's even sillier to try to solve life problems that way. Whip out the paper and pencil
Most problems are actually downstream from a lack of information (clarity/context/etc) and the best way to solve it is to seek specificity and disambiguation as quickly as possible. This goes for art, emotional dilemmas, technical problems and more

I'm continuing work on our OpenXR mixed reality tool called "MR Magic" Here's a screenshot of what that looks like with meta bounding boxes in my room + the tool I made to help me visually debug my surface2surface pathfinding algo Surfaces are nodes connected by edges, which is what's shown :)
While I'm working on the new game my team is working on finishing up Galactic Traffic Control with a 1.0 official release! Plus! Doing some very cool collaborations. Very excited with where we're going and what we're doing.
I can't show anything yet but after 3 months I started working on this again and we're making lots of cool progress! Hopefully something shareable soon. Specifically looking forward to sharing my room-pathing solution in Unity. I'm pretty jazzed with it.
For the past week I've been working on a surface-bound pathfinding package in Unity for mixed reality apps. I'm hoping to release it for other devs to use as well once I have it a bit more polished up! Spoilers -- we're in the early days of a tower defense prototype for our next game 👀
We'll be showing off all new Laser Dance gameplay footage at next weeks Creature Feature showcase! Here's a sneak peek 👀 ✨Tune in 9AM PST on May 19th on IGN!✨ #metaquest #mixedreality
TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS: The first ever Creature Feature will include updates, announcements, and shenanigans from all Creature label studios. You will see brand new game announcements, new content for some of your favorite games, and a few surprises along the way. ✨ 9AM PST on May 19th on IGN. ✨

VR + Mini Mode update is out NOW for Galactic Traffic Control! I ❤️ this update. You can play while seated, standing still, on a unicycle, wherever! I like mini-mode even better than room-scale. We also added VR Mode. Quest 2 users, rejoice! Try it! Lmk ur thoughts www.meta.com/experiences/...
