In Animotive, once youโ€™ve a character, you can handle Props using the Grip buttons on your controllers. To pick up a Prop, approach it and extend your characterโ€™s hand towards the Prop as if you were going to grasp it. Then, press and hold the grip button on the controller to grab the Prop. To release the Prop, let go of the grip button.

To move your Prop with your laser, hover over it and select it by holding down the Grip button. There are two ways to move a Prop with your laser. The default mode is Linear Mode. You can move the Prop anywhere in the space by moving your controller and holding the Grip. You can move the Prop closer or farther away from you by continuing to hold the grip and pushing the Thumbstick forward or back. When you are happy with the orientation and position, just release the Grip on your controller.

The second mode is called Parabola Mode. You can switch to this by continuing to hold the grip flicking the right Thumbstick left or right. In Parabola Mode, the Prop will become anchored to the floor, and you can move it through the space by moving your controller and holding the Grip button. You can rotate it by twisting your controller left or right. To place a Prop, make sure your laser is blue, and release the Grip button.

This tutorial teaches how you can import your own props into the scene and how to interact with the props as listed above:
