LightweaVR - A UE4 Game Jam Entry
A VR Puzzler. Weave new patterns from old ones based on clues provided.
(NOTE: Video is a play-through and has spoilers)
Requirements/Pre-Requisites:
* VR-Ready PC (recommended at least a GPU of GTX 1070 & i5 proc or equivalent)
* Playtested with the Oculus Rift (with touch).
* Should however work with the Vive fine as touch control triggers/interactions were also mapped to ensure cross-compatibility (Check controls section for details)
To Start:
* Touch the center of the growing color tentacles in front of you.
* Listen to the voice prompts to get hints and/or look up ;)
* First puzzle text should get you acquainted with the rules, if you forget the hint it's
"make the pyramid the right side (point) up" - GOOD LUCK!
Objective:
Re-work the light threads in the Loom (puzzle Grid) to form a new shape indicated from in-game hints, by grabbing and moving the colored light swirls to the correct spots in the loom (yellow part only, gray are boundaries).
Use the corner colored spheres in the boundaries to act as an orientation guide (notice they match the colors of hte light swirls) ;)
Tips:
* If you're stuck, it helps to place the swirls outside the grid spreading them apart so you can visualize your planned weave pattern first before attempting to place them in the loom.
* If you look up, a text prompt will appear to provide hints on the current puzzle.
Controls:
Trigger to Grab Light shards/spheres - Take note of their color, threads attached to them for orientation.
To move the Loom (puzzle grid) use the thumbstick. For height adjustments, use the thumbstick and grip in combination.
