❗️READ BEFORE YOU BUY ❗WASTE OF MONEY

❗️❗️❌️HUGE WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY, DO NOT BUY❌️❗️❗️I spent 4 HOURS building and testing this elaborate thing that goes through all this stuff in my room just to "save the game" and get off for the night... MY MISTAKE I load up my save from last night just to see half of the pieces missing, I made 3 separate saves so it was NOT my fault, each save had different parts missing, parts floating In the air and the real kicker, I spent an hour trying to fix this just to have the entire game turn into one huge bug, I would try to grab rails and move them just for the entire 12 foot rail to LITERALLY FLOAT AWAY I've tried clicking undo, reseting my save, reseting my game, reseting my oculus, I've tried everything and all just to be pissed off I spent 6 hours on this game along with $10 what a waste of my money, I should have got "among us" or literally ANYTHING else, the devs don't care about making their game better and run smoothly, hours wasted I will never purchase any games or anything by this terrible game designer and I hope you wouldn't either

Living Room Fungineering Without Mess

Whether you're a tinkerer, a gamer, or a fan of innovative technology, This sets an accessible new standard for mixed reality gaming, delivering a unique and gratifying experience that will have you lost in the intricate mechanics of whimsical contraptions for hours on end. Note: Please Provide built in machines that showcases the substantial devices available - this will help accelerate intricate gameplay.

Buggy, nothing to do, almost no intro

Menus are buggy. How am I supposed to press buttons? Move the controller through buttons and sometimes they work. Buttons are too small. I switched to hand tracking and hope it's better. But it isn't, objects randomly spawn because the menu-holding-hand pulls out objects from the menu. After 3 minutes there was a bug that no UI element was reacting to my hands. I don't know what the objects do, library is very limited, not a lot to do. No loopings possible with marble rollercoaster. Physics is not consistent enough to build big Machines. Big chain reactions will just stop due to different physics each try. The car track is the only thing that seems to be fun and that works. AR mode is a cool idea. Most unpolished title I ever played from Quest Store, needs a lot of work!

Not able to load saved scenarios

Almost useless if i am not able to continune a machine that i have saved. not able to show it to soneone later on. This functionality does NOT work. i do not seem to be the only person experiencing this so think before you buy. sometimes when loading a machine it apparently is working as i can hear the sounds of things that are moving but machine is not visible. Definitely asking for a refund.

your games are broken.

Seems to be the only way to talk to anyone from this company is here. So I'm just gonna put it right here that your Patrick Mahomes football game is broken. The game goes black screen as soon as you score a touchdown. Please fix it!
