- Quick Patch - Teleport Movement - 2 June 2017
Hey everyone, I've had an overwhelming amount of players express their concerns about the touchpad movement. Simply put, I'm going to remove it from Constricted VR until I implement the menu system to allow players to choose their movement style. I can definitely understand the concerns, and that's why for the time being, teleport movement is implemented back in both rooms. I do want to point out, that this is a quick hotfix, and there are some additional bugs and quirks that need to be worked out over the next few days - please be understanding of this. The Hallway was built around touchpad movement, but I can assure you it is fully-playable with teleportation as well. For players who DO want to experience The Hallway with touchpad movement, please email me at [email protected] and upon verifying your Constricted VR purchase, I'll send you a version with touchpad movement fully im…

- Constricted VR: The Hallway - Released! - 31 May 2017
I’m so excited to finally release the second room in Constricted VR! As I have mentioned in a previous update, this level is slightly less difficult but with more varied puzzles and is more story-focused. I don't want to give too much of the story away, so I can only recommend checking out the trailer and images on the product page, and enjoy playing! I hope you amazing people have an awesome time trying to escape The Hallway! A couple of changes and updates that I want to mention here as well: -Updated the game to use touchpad movement, rather than teleportation. For many users who haven’t used touchpad movement, this may be slightly awkward or different. I’m going to implement a setting at a later time that lets you select either teleportation or walking. ***EDIT: Reverting to teleportation movement until fully implemented.*** -Updated visuals in Room #1: Laboratory Escape -Fixed some…

- The Hallway - Constricted VR Room #2 Release Date: May 31st - 19 May 2017
I did say the room would be released by the end of May! The entire escape room is built, puzzles are all finalized, and the first stage of Early-Access polish for this escape room is coming to a close. Only a little bit longer before it is released to all of you! I hope all of you are as excited to play it, as I am excited for you to play it. While the difficulty of the puzzles isn't as moderately tough as the previous room, the puzzles are more varied and may force you to think outside of the box more. Over the next week or so, I'm going to be compiling some pictures and a short trailer to highlight the new room, and these will be added prior to the level update. This room is a precursor to the next full-game that I am currently developing - think of it as a teaser of sorts. The length should take most players around 30-40 minutes, but there is no time limit so players can explore and…

- Current Status of the Second Room - 24 April 2017
Good Morning everyone! I'm excited to let you all know that the second room is scheduled to be released before the end of May! The design and layout of the room is complete, so the next step is to finish up coding interactions and adding some more polish. I'm not sure how many of you follow my blog, but I had posted a pretty lengthy wall of text regarding the state of the second room, and my decisions moving forward. I highly suggest you check out the blog post at www.pnxdesigns.com/2017/04/19/constricted-vr-update-2/ Ultimately, I've decided to transition the "planned" next room into a full-fledged game, due to the overall design not fitting my vision for Constricted VR. It simply wasn't an escape-room as much as it was a psychological experience. First and foremost, all of you will still recieve four full escape rooms as promised. Secondly, the next room is going to be a 35-60 minute…

- Patch 1.01 - 27 March 2017
Good Afternoon Everyone! Below are the patch notes for the first update to Constricted VR! While it isn't anything major, it's mainly an update to address many of the minor concerns players had while playing. There's also a little teaser for the next room beneath the notes! Included in this update are as follows: – Item force to break grab increased from 500.0f -> 2500.0f. This means objects won’t just clip off your hand when you collide with another object in-game. While they won't fall out of your hands if you put your arm down into a table too much, objects won't just go through all objects in the game. -More static objects given colliders and the ability to be grabbed. This includes the wine bottles, pill bottles, and mugs found around the room. This was a feature requested by a pretty good amount of users, so I'll be sure to focus on this in future rooms! -Fixed the Grab issue with…

- Less than 48 Hours! - 11 March 2017
Good Afternoon everybody! Today is going to be a relatively short update with a few preview images for the next room (which will be included for FREE with every Constricted VR purchase)! First, I want to say thank you to everyone who has helped me on this journey to getting my game created and published. While I programmed and modeled everything on my own, I had many people help me with play-testing, creating the trailer for the game, and give me insight on how to tweak the puzzles in the first room to be either more challenging or less impossible! Thank you to Colleen, Vinny, Jordan, Erika, and Evelyn. You all helped me immensely and supported me the entire way through creating this. With only 48 hours until my game is live, I am extremely hyped and I really hope that you, the community, enjoys what I’ve created and gives me your insight to what you would like to see in future rooms (o…

- Coming Soon - 3 March 2017
Hey everybody! I'm introducing my new VR Escape Game, Constricted VR! Please check out my store page, feel free to visit my website, and let me know what you think of the game (once it's released)! Scheduled release is on March 13th, and I really look forward to seeing what you all think of it! Constricted VR will continue to be an Early Access game until the four primary rooms are released into the game. Currently only the first escape room is available, but the other 3 are in-development. The first room is an escape from a deranged scientist's laboratory. The only way to escape is to figure out the scientist's full identity and the next victim on his list! I hope you enjoy the puzzles and I look forward to presenting the game's release!
