Starship Home is a new mixed-reality game developed for the Meta Quest 3 where it turns users' space into a custom spaceship. There, players can become horticulturists in an alternate universe with intergalactic plants -- this is all made by the independent studio Creature.
The blog post notes that players can customize their ship by “strategically placing virtual windows, control panels, and other components” from the comfort of their own homes. When looking outside of their windows, they will see space creatures, travel animations, clouds, and plants. When they're landed, they can collect plant clippings and take care of them on the ship. To make the process more simple, the game uses the automatic room meshing by Quest 3.
