Brickbuilder VR Reviews

\|+|/

Its lego, in VR, its automatically cool. I will admit theres a couple of oddities, I dont get why the steps are repeated and it would be nice to rotate them rather than just move them around, make it clearer where hidden parts are going but seiroulsy, despite its flaws it works so well.

It works (with valve index). The user interface needs a lot of work. Menus should NOT be "on" the table. They should be floating and movable. You need a lot fewer parts, and a tool to scale them. So a single axle part, which you can stretch or shorten, and for advanced users, the diameter can also be changed. Parts could optionally snap to multiples of a single brick unit in size. For an excellent example of what I want, look at the "gizmo" tool in tabletop simulator. It allows detailed adjustment in each of the three dimensions; can also be used for fine adjustment of part location and orientation while building. I also would like to be able to adjust the table any time, rather than only at start up. The valve index binding should use the grab function rather than trigger to pick up pieces. I know that other VR controllers don't necessarily have this feature, but for the index it makes sense, as then you use the trigger for remote pickup. Hence one needs no special tool for the remote case.

Very fun game, the dev is welcoming in the community hub, and in my case, responded in under an hour. the main game has some minor issues, but they don't render the game unplayable. overall, very recommended.
