About Perplexigon
DESCRIPTION
Grab your controllers, choose your environment, and snap into action with your friends to build amazing contraptions and machines in Perplexigon!
Jump into an immersive multiplayer VR physics sandbox game and choose from a toolbox of blocks and joints to create anything from castles to complex remote controlled rockets.
Use the tracked Vive or Oculus Touch controllers along with seated or room-scale tracking to fully move around your constructions and build them quickly and intuitively.
FEATURES
What we have so far:
-Single and multiplayer building
-Saving and loading blocks/contraptions
-Deleting blocks to break apart or edit your contraptions
-Space Environment! With blocks, characters, gravity toggles and music to match.
-Linkable action blocks which can be remotely triggered
-Drag control wires between action blocks to connect their trigger buttons, allowing you to fire several off at once or create branches to create precise sequences
Lots of blocks:
Structural Blocks
-Cube
-Wheel
-Pyramid
-Rhombicuboctahedron
-Plate
-Pole
-Sphere
Mechanical Blocks
-Hinges: An elbow joint letting connected blocks swing about a central axis
-Springs: A linear compression spring letting you create shock absorbers or bouncy bits
-Axles: Allows the two sides to spin freely
-Ball joints: Connects two blocks with a full range of rotation between them
Action Blocks
-Motors: Both clockwise and counterclockwise remote activated motors
-Thrusters: Applies a continuous force to whatever it's attached to and blows away anything in its wake
-Bombs: Trigger an explosion remotely or link several together to really shake things up
FUTURE CONTENT
What we plan on adding:
-Puzzle based missions that require users to build contraptions to accomplish a goal or set of goals.
-Additional environments, each with unique features, blocks, characters, and music!
-More block types that will allow you to build even bigger and more perplexing machines!

This game is exciting! There was a learning curve, which is common for games. Once you get the hang of it, it's quite intuitive. What I enjoyed the most was making new contraptions, and seeing what I could do to break things. Muahahha! Very well thought out, I look forward to playing more. Next time with crazy contraptions I can create with some friends. Peter5 found this helpful
I'm a fan of physics sandbox games and this one has a very satisfying and well designed building mechanic. It's a polished, comfortable experience with an art style that works well in VR. The ability to collaborate in multiplayer and a puzzle game mode adds a lot of replay value for an Early Access game. It was actually relaxing and I sat on the floor for a portion of it, just playing with the blocks like a VR Lego Technic set. I plan on spending more time with this one.5 found this helpful
A good sandbox game, you can collaborate to do something with a sense of technology. You can also make some huge machinery, aircraft and ordinary cars. As long as there are enough ideas, they can be implemented in the game.
1/10 Playing the puzzle mode, but I can't figure it out at all. The only way to advance through levels is to take a block and exploit a clipping problem to pull it out of a glass case and then put it in a swirly vortex. Each level is the same. Can't understand it or work out what is puzzling about this. Blocks all appear as cubes whether they are triangles, spheres or whatever they are. The "interesting shapes" you make is only a bunch of blocks. Again, don't understand it. I think I would probably advise avoiding this until the developers work out what it is and attempt in some way to communicate this to us.
