Hey everyone!

I'm happy to announce that In The Shadows will be playable PAX East 2017 in Boston.



This was made possible with the help of one of my Kickstarter backer who offered to pay for my expense associated with the show! You can read more about it on the last
Kickstarter update here!

It's your chance to try the game before the release! If you are going to PAX East you should drop by and say hi!

See you soon!

Thank you everyone for playing Space, VR! in early acsess. I finished rebuilding the game from the ground of into more of the experience I imagined when I first created Space, VR!. Ever since middle school I was fascinated by the moon and space in general and wanted to feel what it was like on the moon. With the help of VR and Space, VR! I was able to make that a (virtual) reality!

• Removed several maps and just focused on a single map
  
• Decreased the size of the maps from 2 km to 1 km for increased preformance
  
• Added controller supported movement (this should help people who use OSVR to play)
  
• Added teleportation and more conventional movement at high request. This should be more friendly to those who just got a VR headset or are prone to movement sickness.
  
• Removed all the motion sickness inducing jumping and jetpack movement.
  
• Increased quality of terrain to be more realistic

• Fixed not being able to exit the game
  
• Fixed falling off maps when crouching
  
• Fixed Audio Skipping
  
• Fixed "sparkling" in dark areas

There will be more updates in the future. Our company is now focused on a second *MUCH* bigger title. However, we still have plans for the future of Space, VR!

All updates to this will be free from now into the infinite future!

It’s finally time for a new test!
This time it’s our official mod tool. This first update will make it a lot easier for modders to create new parts and blocks and share them trough workshop. Making it possible to reach a lot more mechanics. We plan to keep adding new features to the mod tool as we keep work with survival mode, making more things possible.

We have added a simple guide on how to get started.
You can check it out here Mod Guide

Also, our artists have prepared two fun mods for all you mechanics to start playing with.
Check them out here:
Crazy Wheel Pack
Button and Switches Pack

If you like to play with these new mods and help us test things out, you can do so now by following these steps:


We’ve also published a set of guidelines to help mechanics understand how to make the most of the new tool, along with some changes to our terms and conditions, including to explain:

• Who can use the tools and mods
  
• Who owns mods and how to respect the work of others
  
• Some important rules and things to avoid when modding
  
• Some guidance on how to make the most out of your mods

We think these changes and guidelines are important to make sure the Scrap Mechanic modding community continues to be an open, friendly and fun place, which encourages creativity, sharing and respect.

Before you get started make sure to:

• Read the latest version of our EULA here: EULA
  
• Look through our modding community guidelines here: Modding guidelines
  
• Then, get your hands on the tool by clicking tools on the steam library tab!

We’ve integrated Scrap Mechanic with Steam Workshop to make it easy for you to find and share mods.
Thanks for reading Mechanics! Keep on scrapping!
