**I'm in!** I don't yet know what I'll make, but I'm hoping I can make it work with the Oculus Go (and normal computers too). Wish me good luck!

My game, "Pick up space toys!" is now (somewhat) playable, yay milestone! I added the [link](https://out-of-space.glitch.me/) to my game description but it is very much **unfinished** so don't submit ratings for the contest yet!

Yay, finished! It works from the web on any computer, but also with Oculus Go and (hopefully) related VR goggles.

[Give it a try](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/pick-up-space-toys)!

This game actually surprised me when I opened it. Not 100% sure how you take all the photos to stitch seamlessly together but I liked it. I spent longer than I would like to admit inside this 3D I-spy.

This is great, never saw anything like it. I love the animated toys that move when clicked.

brallex 2018-08-13 01:13

Haha this was awesome, cool idea and actually pretty fun:) Finished it!!

This was really cute. Your kids are lucky to have parents like you. I mean, come on, I would have LOVED a personal ball pit as a kid!!

The only thing I didn't like in this game was the music. A painfully basic measure that loops quick and sounds borderline painful on its first iteration. But I liked everything else!

guilhermoni 2018-08-13 01:46

Brilliant

panda 2018-08-13 01:54

Fair criticism, @seafishelle. I don't really know how to make music that sounds good.

Awesome!! Just like picking up my daughters toys at home every day ;) (Noticed how the URL is the days of the week)

This was a wicked cool interactive experience. I don't have a VR setup, but the game worked just fine on desktop. I had a great time all the way up to the end! Awesome game!

Really awesome, well designed, and unique game! Brilliant job well done. Only thing I would work on is I noticed for some items the picture you would replace them with would be lighted differently or a little offset so that there is a visible line outlining the stitched picture. For a game made in 3 days though I wouldn't expect you to have gotten a 100% seamless and error free game.

Didn't expect game to be so fun! Also, I enjoyed those little animations. Shame that in last level some of the toys were captured with different lightning.

dsthedragon 2018-08-13 12:18

it was fun tho the it kinda hurt my eye when tried to get close to the edges then again this was first vr like experience

farfadet46 2018-08-13 15:40

amazing idea :) thanks

nomys-tempar 2018-08-14 06:49

Pretty cool idea, the game is really well done, and animations are very neat. The music is a bit annoying, but can be desactivate so it's cool :)

naro 2018-08-14 09:03

Love the concept and how the objects interact.

gautstafr 2018-08-14 09:16

Love it, the animations n stuff are great, and you managed to stitch the photos together really well. The ending made me laugh, first Ludum Dare game I beat so far.

fivenamefivesocks 2018-08-14 10:10

Wow truelly great concept !simple game but i really enjoyed it ! everything works well, loved the animations on the toys you're not suposed to pick up ! Music is a bit stressfull however ( can be muted so not an issue). Really nice work overall !

panda 2018-08-14 13:54

Thank you for all the feedback! For those curious, I posted a [making of](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/pick-up-space-toys/pick-up-space-toys-the-making-of).

zykroma 2018-08-14 14:58

Such a good idea ! I worked in a VR company and still never heard of something like that. That was cute, the music loop is too obvious and a bit annoying. I laughed when I saw the first animation and I smiled the whole game haha. Great job !

andrey-ugolnik 2018-08-15 03:45

Ho-ho-ho, Hidden Object style game in VR. Looks nice ;)

awix 2018-08-15 05:59

Great graphics and the audio really helps you get into the game.

grigory 2018-08-15 14:58

Would be cool to have a full-featured quest/adventure game based on 3D camera photos, and with a plot. This is just a concept, for sure, but the idea is really cool and innovative.

boltkey 2018-08-15 23:36

Man! That was so cute! That's all I have to say.

panda 2018-08-16 03:41

@grigory agreed! We could make a whole adventure game, with inventory and everything.

First VR game I've encountered during LD Jam. Got me interested instantly!

Things feel very trippy. Not necessary a bad thing.

Game reminds me of Toy Story.

Difficulty was just right I think. The Space Toys were just discoverable enough.

Music was annoying so I muted it. Mute didn't hold through the level, so I had to mute it every level.

I liked the stuff responding to clicks like the robot waving back on level 2 and the crocodile lurking. Nice touch!

What an incredible idea! Innovation 5 stars!!!

Thank you @cercle!
