I wish game designers would explore more diverse aesthetics. Another World and Cuphead come to mind as great examples of something different. I would love to see a game with a 70s psychedelic scifi fantasy art aesthetic. Post an example of something you would like to see!

@WritNelson I'm in. We need to set a precedent before Microsoft, Adobe and every other software company people use to build products decide they get a cut of your business on a whim.

The state of LOW-FI and platform support (Death of PCVR):. When the Kickstarter ran back in<date redacted>, the main focus was "Next-Gen VR", meaning at the time PCVR, with high hopes for PSVR2 (which hadn't been officially announced). During the next year or so, we (myself,

Just a reminder that Medal of Honor Above and Beyond #VR has an estimated budget of about $40 million USD and was developed by Respawn Entertainment. To put things into context, LOW-FI is being developed with $100 thousand CAD from crowdfunding by me and a few freelancers.

I ❤️ #VR.I really do. BUT.Top selling game is 5 years old. Number 1 platform = mobile. Owned by corpo dorks. They just closed the top eSports title. Cannes just canceled its XR category. Most visionaries are gone. PSVR2, market unknown. Quest 3 = better Beat Saber?. Help me.

Alright VR fam. We need to talk. Quest app sales are down 27% year over year. The FReality podcast just shut down. The visionaries of VR have all jumped ship, from @PalmerLuckey to @ID_AA_Carmack. What we're left with is @finkd and Meta, subsidizing the entire industry, throwing.

I'm not doing this for the money. it might not come. I'm doing it because I know that VR can be more than just games on your face. It can be rich worlds dripping with art, passion, mystery and atmosphere. It can empower the user, inspiring awe and providing escape. Conveying

@boztank @ID_AA_Carmack @hmltn @PalmerLuckey This is a wild thing to read. For one, you weren't even there when this stuff went down. Secondly, I assume you think you know Palmer's politics don't align because you know that someone else wrote the "voting for Gary Johnson" letter? lol.

Many new followers pointing to similarities between LOW-FI and Blade Runner. Here's a clip of some juxtaposed visual inspirations from 2049 and Hardware (1990). Not pictured, but equally inspiring are Alien (1979), Outland (1981), Blade Runner (1982) Robocop (1987) and more.

Give artists more control!.With no more direction than a simple animation, look what brilliance emerged. These tiny clips are more inspired than 90% of what's come out of Hollywood in the last 20 years. Let go of the reins. Art is life. Full video here.

"Sound is 50% of the experience.". Especially true for #VR. Audio needs to be positional, accurate and plentiful. A club's bass thumps, a train in the distance, PSAs echo above, cars pass overhead, rain on the roofs, shuffling footsteps, a fly by a dumpster, rolling thunder. 🔊

To summarize, you are no longer allowed to give Oculus keys to users who purchased the game off site. That means no pre-order or crowdfunding. Daddy Zuck wants his 30%, serf.

Totally not riding the #Cyberpunk2077 hashtag to show you LOW-FI. A cyberpunk neo-noir adventure coming to PC, #VR and #PS5. Nope, not at all. But I mean. if you were to take it that way, and maybe wishlist it, I wouldn't blame you. It does look dope.

#VR can evoke mood in a way that only the masters of film and literature could achieve in the past. Pulled into a tangible world of light and shadow, dust and grime, you can almost feel the thickness of the atmosphere. You can wade through film grain. be inside the frame.
