Now Available on Steam!

This is now available on Steam! Thank you for your support! http://store.steampowered.com/app/411690

Getting closer...

2 September, 2015 - kideternal

Thank you for your support in getting us green-lit!

We're getting close to being ready to release. Perhaps in a couple of weeks if all goes well. Changes to the Oculus runtime and delays in external component development have affected our progress some, but we're now feature-complete and beginning to put on the finishing touches.

We can't wait to share what we've built with you!

Description

Release date: Summer 2015

Live a life at sea as captain of your very own galleon!

Created for the Oculus Rift (and soon the Vive) this is an entirely new interactive environment unlike anything you've encountered before. It's not just a game; it's an immersive-experience designed to make you believe you're actually there!

What wonders lie in store:

Explore the cabins and decks of an historically accurate English 16th-century race-built galleon!
Relax to the soothing sound and gently rocking motion of realistic Caribbean waves!
Get a bird's-eye view as a seagull; soar over masts and through rigging!
Fire each of her 12 minion cannons!
Climb the shrouds up to the crow's nest!
Bask in the glow of your personal pirate treasure!
Keep a watchful-eye for mermaids with your trusty telescope!
(More to come as development continues!)

Notes: This a work in progress. All photos/videos are of an early build and will likely improve in the final product. Comparing graphics and game-play of Virtual Reality experiences to existing single-monitor computer games is like comparing apples to oranges. What works in 2D games doesn't work in VR experiences, and vice-versa, so measure your expectations accordingly. You'll need a high-end CPU/GPU combo to render dual HMD displays at 1200x1080@90FPS each (which is why the graphics of VR titles look ~5 years old.)

Check out my already-published other title VROOM: Aerie for a VR experience you can play today by purchasing here[theriftarcade.com].

Help this and other Virtual Reality experiences get green-lit by voting "Yes" above, so you have something to play this holiday season when you get your shiny new VR headset! :)
