Gadgeteer Releases Free Update To Bring Music to Rube Goldberg Machines
Metanaut is working on a brand new VR title called Wonder Atlas! This one will blow your socks away Click here to take a sneak peek via Discord.
We’ve just released a FREE new content update to Gadgeteer! This update includes 23 new gadgets and 1 new environment to build in.
The 23 new gadgets allow players to build musical Rube Goldberg machines. We’re calling these gadgets ‘Musical Gadgets’ and they include:
- Metronome
- Xylophone (8 pieces)
- Bass, Snare, and Bongo Drums
- Cymbal
- Tambourine
- Triangle
- Maraca
- Gong
- Horn
- Decorative musical symbols
- Cowbell
- Rubber Chicken
“Cowbell? Rubber Chicken? I thought you said this update was about creating music!” These two gadgets were inspired by this Saturday Night Live sketch: https://youtu.be/cVsQLlk-T0s and this beautiful symphony: https://youtu.be/lN3QQ0MX94U.
In addition to releasing new gadgets, we’ve also built a new environment! We’re calling this environment the ‘Study’ and it’s purposely designed to offer a building canvas that’s different from the ‘Apartment’ environment. The ‘Study’ environment offers better support for the building of musical machines with taller ceilings and differently sloped surfaces. It’s available in the Sandbox mode.
This FREE update is available to all owners of Gadgeteer. It is available right now on the Oculus Store and Steam with support for other VR headsets coming in the weeks that follow.
We can’t wait to see hear your amazing symphonies!
