Builder Simulator is the perfect game for those who want to build a house, from the ground up, one brick at a time.

Create your own materials - Mix water and cement to create concrete, but make sure your proportions are right.
-
Do It Yourself - do everything yourself, don’t worry about incompetent workers messing your work up.

FlowScape
My favorite purchase all year.
If you’re wondering what I’ve been able to do with FlowScape that led to my review, you can take a look at all of my projects here .
I knew the moment I laid eyes on this, I would most likely love it. It exceeded my expectations as a casual design & illustration tool that just about anyone can use. I have spent many hours putting together village & macro background scenes. The Sculpting tool allow you to create mountains, hills, lakes, rivers, as I see fit. The Painting tool allows you to create walkways. I can construct anything from realistic waterfalls to lost ruins with the Transformation tool to manipulate just about any object.

Wow, it’s difficult to say in words how impressive and relatively deep this instant gratification “game” is! Marketed as a game, but used by many as a 3D design tool. Oh, it’s not Maya, or Lightwave, or even Bryce or Blender, which is cool because we already have those. This is something different, and special, and FAST, and easy! And for all its limitations, what IS here is a lot deeper and impressive than you might imagine!
I’ve made a nice living from building scenes in 3D software for many decades, and I’ve spent countless hours working with wire-frames and pallets of textures and bump maps and lighting devices, and scratching my head over each new entries' exploration into the 3D modeling' procedures. It doesn’t replace those high-end spreads for many projects, but this WILL be replacing the high-rollers on a few projects and making my life so much easier!

i love this game very much, its super easy, no struggle. it guides you through what you are to do. Mods are a great way to spice it up as well, so you also get that as well. Building houses isn’t what you do, but you change its look, the inside you can go crazy, and do as you please. super relaxing and you get a sense of accomplishment when you finish a house. You do “level” which makes the game veerryy slloooowww at the beginning.. BUT once you get everything levelled up its super quick!
The DLCs are amazing, but one negative is the Pets DLC is a joke of the simple fact that they keep giving us other DLCs and still not the Pets one, with that said its not the end of the world, thats my opinion. I feel like they try to push content out, so other DLCs are slower to being released. its been a year and still no pets XD it is what it is because this game is still amazing. Don’t forget that they like our feedback, and there are things in here that have changed because of it and thats awesome! Like things i’ve mentioned to a friend, and then BOOM update with that fix or change. its cool to see others have the same idea. So nice, great group of people here. Amazing game, big fan haha

Zen Landscape Editor
A great game, relaxing and creative just like how it was promised. But there are some things that can be worked on to make it so much more amazing. For example, placing objects like bridges is really hard to get it where you want, but placing things like people is very smooth and easy. Trees are on sand like platform which kinda ruins the green of many islands. Most objects like the villages are red, but would be cool if you can customize the colors of the ships, people, and structures. Customized controls would be AMAZING, it allows everyone to have their own style. Finally, it is a bit hard to rotate the screen for me. M for mute does not work either.

This is sort of a non-working demo. Its to demonstrate the landscape editor for the game which is still being developed but God willing will be released soon. Hopefully this year. I’ve seen the demos and other information about the game, it is very good!
BUY THIS TO SUPPORT THE AUTHOR! ITS VERY GOOD!

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.
Stonehenge VR SANDBOX
Experienced on the Oculus Rift and Windows Mixed Reality
You can view my gameplay and initial impressions review here: https://youtu.be/P983oWnWdyg
I’m surprised that this app doesn’t have more reviews. It’s a good educational app. You get a nice narrated tour of Stonehenge. I definitely learned some things that I didn’t know before about this ancient monument.
You even have your own sandbox where you can change stuff like the time of day or night, the angle of the sun, fog, or you can change the colors of the stones, or add your own. You can listen to your own music while you just chill. You can even fly around and check it out from different angles. You can add your own decorations such as butterflies or your own campfire.

Stonehenge VR Sandbox is awesome software. Very polished and authentic. Stonehenge is one of those places we think about as a child and were looking forward to trying in VR. This experience was more than I hoped for! It is also one of the experiences which everyone in the family can appreciate. It’s a must to try, especially if you are new to VR and want a superb first experience.
