New Rooms 2 Inventions

We believe that a rich library of content is crucial to the success of Rooms 2. Why do we believe that? That’s what you say when we ask “What do you think about Rooms 2?”

We realize the top most requested ‘content library’ items are things like vehicles, basketballs, and costume dummies. That stuff is coming.

But as a step on that road, we are excited to publish a set of Circuits-focused inventions made by our internal game team as they built their recent games BonkysInferno, Feeding-Frenzy, and EvergrownPVP. You can find them on the Rooms 2 Inventions carousel in the watch store:

  • Format Game Time
  • Synchronized Timer
  • Synchronized Stopwatch
  • Choose Random Audio
  • Ladder
  • Player Show Subtitle
  • Show Banner Notification (that can send to all players or a specific one)
  • Show Notification (that can send to all players or a specific one)
  • Update At Low Frequency
  • Play Synced Audio with Remote Throttling
  • Run With Cooldown

These building blocks make it much easier for you to implement common game logic in your rooms. It’s a baby step, but it’s a step! We’re also going to publish more Circuits-focused inventions in the coming weeks like a day-night cycle and bounce pads.

We’ll update you on other invention systems soon, but for now, tell us what you think in the comments below.

I Think we need something like a book of knowledge. As a Very Dumb person, I might admit… Its always a pain to find things…
I tried rooms 2.0 once. Think its great, but couldnt finish what I was doing because even the walk and fly permissions Work in a different way… And guess what? I dont know where to find answered for my dumb mortal questions… Lol…

Regards!

You can adjust some of the locomotion settings in a Player Definition Board when you configure it:
