Adapting a roomscale VR game for PC and console comes with a lot of challenges. In this week's Design Dive, we show how areas from Floor Plan 2 have changed to support the free movement and new interactions of Floor Plan: Slap Out Of It! #indiegames #gamedev
we've been using Clawed Code for years but we double checked and Steam still does NOT require a disclosure #indiegames #gamedev
Our game has lots of puzzles and interactive environments. But when players are constantly exploring for clues, those interactions can become red herrings - so we made them into a feature! #gaming #indiegames #gamedev
We asked @benstarr.bsky.social to help us out with the trailer for our new game, and he delivered! But we could only pick one line for the ending, so here are some of the alternate takes. #indiegames #gaming #gamedev
Back to that first screenshot, look closely - you might've seen "Lorem Ipsum Dollar" but did you notice that's a "1ish" dollar bill? (by @nathan3dart.bsky.social)
The literal "chicken dance club" is dense with too many to count, but: - hard boiled egg yolk stools, cracked eggshell light fixtures (by @ginagaravalia.bsky.social) - band posters (by @erinholmes.bsky.social) - cans of worms
on either side of the slide projector (during the "personal tutoring" line) - water and water cooler - the wrong puzzle piece on the poster (by @amegosh.bsky.social)
- the butt print on the glass of the copy machine
We're aiming for maximum compatibility
A wild @benstarr.bsky.social appears! It's day two of demoing Slap Out Of It! at Summer Game Fest in the @dayofthedevs.org area. Come say hi if you're here, and wishlist the game on Steam to stay up to date! store.steampowered.com/app/3564410/...

Our team is heading to GDC next week! You can find us drinking boba and touching grass in the park between meetings. We'd love to say hi, catch up with old friends, meet new friends, and talk about anything! Well, *almost* anything. If you see us around, ask for a free pin.
Floor Plan 2 is one of five nominees for "Best Solo Journey" in the #VRForever Awards, recognizing some of the greatest experiences that VR has to offer! Join the celebration at @vr-forever.com and on Steam from September 18th to 23rd with announcements, sales, and more.
No joke: Floor Plan 2 is 4 years old today! For a limited time, we're offering the game for 40% off - our biggest discount yet. Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1534850/... Meta Quest (use code 4FP2-8BA115 at checkout): www.meta.com/experiences/...
We made it. Turbo Button is 10 years old this week! That means we're finally old enough to play VR games! We would not be here without the amazing support of our colleagues across the VR industry and all the people who continue to play our games. THANK YOU, and don't worry: we're not done yet!
And finally, Philip Dickinson (dickensonart.com) surprised us with a bunch of options and we couldn't pick just one. So we settled on two: a cheerful portrait of noodly arms and fleshy puzzles, and the most horrifying treatment of a snowman anyone has seen since Floor Plan 1.
When @amegosh.bsky.social presented us with "a 1590s kitschy look with Santa growing out of letters that don't quite say Merry Christmas," we were sold not only because of beard letters, but also because it perfectly captured AI's unique quality of almost having something to say.
@coolbeens.bsky.social wrote her own prompt to work from: "Christmas Elf Bee Holding Flower Happy Jolly with Present Bow Background Happy Holidays Christmas Green Red Stripes and Sparkles." We don't know if the bee is wearing a hat or another bee, but we're sure that the world needs more scarf feet.
We have lots of hand types and presents in our game, so we loved @scribbleroot.bsky.social's take on wrong hands and wrong presents. The more you look at it, the more questions you have. Isn't that what great art is all about?
Nobody at Turbo Button could figure out how to make an AI-generated greeting card. But we heard studios like us are expected to use AI for everything now, so we commissioned some of our favorite artists to hand draw what they think those cards might have looked like. Here's what they came up with.
Everybody decided to post here now? Okay, we're in.
Today is Floor Plan 2's 3rd anniversary, and we're celebrating by offering the full game on Meta Quest+ through the end of April! www.meta.com/experiences/...
Floor Plan 2 is 40% off in the Meta Quest Black Friday sale! Use promo code BFCM23 at checkout until November 28th. With the included Backside Story expansion and a new graphics update, there's never been a better time to play (or add to your backlog)! www.meta.com/experiences/...
Please be careful to check your child's Halloween candy this year. I just found a lovingly remastered adventure game that released for $5.99 on Meta Quest last week in this chocolate bar www.meta.com/en-us/experi...
