Rooms lets you create games + interactive experiences from your browser. No download necessary. Every thing you see is editable and scriptable. And best of all, it’s free :-).
Hey everyone! 👋
Nick, Bruno and I are excited to introduce you to Rooms.xyz -- a platform for creating 3D games and experiences in your browser. This product is a labor of love, driven by what we wish we had when we were kids.
Rooms is a sandbox-y 3D platform where every thing is editable:
1. you can add any thing you want from our built-in library, or upload a .vox
2. change individual things with the built-in voxel editor
3. make things interactive with Lua code
Game creation+remixing is the most obvious use case, but we think this has potential far beyond that. For instance:
- You can use it to learn how to code, both by viewing the "source" of any room, and by changing code and seeing the effects instantly.
- You can use it to make animated videos with the built-in Camera mode. Each room essentially becomes a set and the Things, props.
- You can use it for interactive storytelling, connecting multiple rooms.
We've also integrated ChatGPT to make virtual characters come to life, included a free sound effect library, and more. There's so much Rooms can do and we're so excited to see what y'all make of it 🫶.
