    Project overview

    Roominator is a mini 3D “room” you can walk around in. It’s built from simple shapes (boxes, cylinders, planes) plus a few fun 3D objects (like a heart and star). You control a character tom ove round the room in third-person view.

    This project is a great example of how to combine world-building and game controls.

    Try it out

    1. Open Flock XR and go to the Demo menu.
    2. Select 🛋️ Roominator
    3. Press Play.
    4. Controls:
    – Hold left mouse button to look around
    – W = forward, S = backward
    – Space = jump

    Explore the code

    Open the code and look for these parts:

    Build the room (floor + walls)
    The room is made from a few big boxes:
    floor: a large thin box
    – walls: three big boxes placed around the floor
    – the floor material is set to bricks

    Poster / sign
    A plane is created and rotated to face into the room.
    Then several say blocks are stacked on it to create a “poster”:
    – a big emoji (🛸)
    – the word “HOME”
    – a blank line to space things nicely
    This is basically a DIY UI screen inside your 3D world.

    Furniture (sofa, shelf + books, lamp, table)
    Each piece of furniture is just shapes arranged carefully:
    sofa: back + base + two cylinder arms
    shelf: a board + three “books” (little boxes) with different colours
    lamp: base + stand + shade (cylinder stack)
    table: top + base + stand

    Player movement + camera follow
    A character is loaded with physics is set to Dynamic, then:
    camera_follow is enabled with a radius of 7
    – movement uses forward, back and sideways
    – animations are used to show natural movement
    So you get a third-person “game feel”.

    Remix ideas

    Try extending the project with your own ideas:

    Change the poster text and emoji

    Add a rug (plane with a different material)

    Add a second room and make a hallway between them

    Change movement speed

    Add a door that opens when you touch it

    Add more furniture

    A similar project you could create

    Make a Build-Your-Own Dorm / Classroom / Garden:
    – build the room from shapes and objects
    – decorate it with posters, paintings, or signs
    – add one interactive rule (glow / hide / open door)
    That’s basically the same structure as Roominator — just with your own theme and rules.
