Will this be available in VR?

[ᶠᶸᶜᵏᵧₒᵤ]

I would LOVE to play this game with my Pimax 5k+, this game would be amazing in VR!

[Lady Lavender]

Oh yes, VR for sure!

[Shoepots]

I don't think the devs even look around here since it's still an epic exclusive on PC.

This game takes advantage of the forced perspective that's only possible on a 2D monitor, I'm not sure what they could do to make it a good VR game.

I did think they could try some handheld Gravity Gun-esque device with a viewport, that'd get the same effect, but who knows. Would be a really cool thing to see a non-euclidean puzzle game in VR.

When playing the demo I was thinking this would be great in VR too

[supersmo]

Gome looks super cool. Wish it was in VR. Would definitely buy if was in VR.

[Applekid]

Yeah I would consider this in VR. Pancake? nah.

It wouldn't work in VR. You would lose the illusions and your computer would probably catch fire.

As has been said, this takes advantage of forced perspective that you can't do in 3D. In real 3D we know how far a way an object is and its size because we are getting two overlapping images and our brains crunch the numbers to figure it out. So all the tricks it uses just wouldn't work.

You do realize there are art exhibits that exist in real life that accomplish this?

You can spout about how it can't work... but the same type of people would make a claim that you can't have 1 button reloads and physical reloads existing in one game either. Claiming it can't be done, even though their only backup involves multiplayer balance. Not that it can't be done.

Explain how 3D digital worlds can't do forced perspectives when reality can.

Reality is more real 3D than even VR is... so lets hear it.

Point being, it's not easy, but not impossible either.

I could see them doing a similar thing to what SuperHot did for their VR Port it wasn't a port per se but more so a game that takes place in the same universe as the flat version of SuperHot with things changed to accommodate the features and differences of VR while also expanding the lore of the SuperHot cannon.

Wouldn't it be the same concept though? Hold items closer to you or farther away. I find it could be the opposite, VR would enable another dimension of perspective. I could be completely wrong though. That's why I'm on this side of the game and not developing it haha

No. Have you been to those exhibits? Where they've painted a pit or whatnot? Yeah, they don't look like anything real n person, just a flat image on a wall. You are mistaking seeing 2d pictures of them for seeing them actually in 3d. In actual 3d it doesn't work. In real life they are nothing special to look at, just an image on the ground, that is very obviously nothing but an image on the ground. So no it does not work in actual 3d. You don't seem to understand the basics of image processing by the brain. There is a reason why, for example, if a bug is on your windshield in real life you don't think its building sized, and that trick only works in a flat 2d image. There is a reason why in real life you would never mistake a real car parked on the street 50 feet away for a fake tiny toy car in the window two inches away in real life.
