Starship Home uses mixed reality to make your living room an intergalactic greenhouse


Indie developer Creature turns you into a space gardener.

A Meta Quest blog post says players will customize their starship by “strategically placing virtual windows, control panels, and other components” in their room. The game uses the Quest 3’s automatic room meshing, so you won’t have to do any manual blocking to tell the headset where things are in your space. The developer doesn’t seem to say whether your spaceship persists across play sessions (it sounds like it might, given Cook’s Reddit reply saying there will be save files “so you can each have your own Starship”).
