Puppet Play 🎬

Puppet Play 🎬

You have the idea, we have everything else!

Puppet Play aims to make animating as easy as possible by utilizing the possibilities of VR headsets. In traditional animation tools, animating is done by manipulating gizmos on a 2D screen. In Puppet Play everything is animated by recording your movement in real-time. This not only makes animating easy but also super fast. No matter the prior experience, if you have a cool idea for a movie you can turn it into reality in a few minutes (depending on your idea it might take a bit longer)!

Grab an object → press record → move it around & repeat!

Additional tools like motion capture, remote control & auto walk support the process. Use your headset to record live audio and once everything is complete, export and share your creation in a standard video format (mp4).

A huge collection of different characters (not only puppets), props and environments are ready for you to use! All things animatable are separated into 3 categories:

Puppets: Characters with Full-Body-Inverse-Kinematic rigs for fast animations

Props: Large objects to build & decorate your set with.

Items: Small objects that can also be attached to the puppets, like weapon, hair & hats.

You are in your own movie studio with many different sets that can be further customized with props. They range from traditional puppet theatres to fully-fledged 3D scenes for your next epic cinematic trailer!

A puppet on a stick or a full 3D character with individually animatable limbs: Choose what fits your vision & time scope. Short on time but still want to tell a story? Choose puppets on a stick! Got a bit more time on your hand and want to go into detail? Then choose a fully animatable humanoid character!

It’s designed for VR, there is no place for 2D UIs! All interactions are physical and integrated into the movie/puppet studio world. Or to say it in cool UX design terms: It’s a fully diegetic UI!

Once your animation is complete, you can export and share it as a standard video file (mp4). You have all rights to upload and monetize anything you make with our tool!

Puppet Play is being developed by a team of freshly graduated students from Hochschule Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. Puppet Play started as a semester project in the study “Animation and Game” at the campus.

A little background:

I’m a professional developer schooled in C### and Java. I am however not schooled to create games, but I know how the mechanics work. 3D game development is more of a hobby/side-project. Please read my review as such, if you’re completely new to programming, my feeling about this product can greatly differ from your perspective. Most of my pros and cons are subjective. But true in my opinion. Also: I use this product only for 3D development, I have no interest in the 2D side.

I’ve changed my review. I thought about deleting it and posting a whole new review, but then I decided to keep it so TGC’s intentions to make AGK functional on Linux would be documented in the comments. If you would like to see the old review, so you’ll have some context if you read the comments, click here .

Okay, I’ve got better things to do with my time now that AGK on Linux has notably improved, and 2 lengthy reviews is 2 too many, so let’s get down to brass tacks.

Hidden Folks

Hidden Folks

If you enjoyed searching for Waldo, you’re going to enjoy this game. However, there is no easily identifiable character like Waldo; instead, each area has a list of people or things to find. At first some are daunting, both due to the size of the areas and due to the size of the items (golf ball, for example). However, each item to find comes with a clue and the clue points to a bigger thing to search for. For example, one item to find is a mushroom and the clue is that a pig is about to sniff it out. So instead of looking for a little mushroom, you can look for a much bigger hog. In fact, I was never stuck on an area due to the smallest items, and the couple times I did get stuck a little, I just wasn’t seeing what was right in front of me. In fact, in addition to the verbal clues, there are auditory clues. I didn’t discover this until the last few areas when I heard someone crying out in distress and looked for the source of the sound, but it’s a nice feature.

Remember that kid from school who’d draw in his notebook, filling entire pages with massive amounts of tiny squiggles? Enter Hidden Folks, a HOG that captures that precise feeling and manages to distinguish itself through a combination of silly writing, small mouth sounds, and crowded, fully animated landscapes. Best of all, previous DLC-only content has been merged into one, so provided you don’t look up solutions, provides amazing gameplay value for every single age–especially small children.
