Hmm, I see. VR is an interesting platform for a project like this, but I really like it. Darn, if only I had the tech for this. I wish you luck with the release of your project.

Many thanks! I first also thought that I'd need something more expensive to run it & I didn't try to purchase any VR tech (we have an HTC Vive, GearVR, etc. only at the company), but at home I just have a Homido VR and it works. It's 5% the price of the Vive, I use my iPhone 5c with it & it does the job. I wouldn't have thought that a VR viewer for $50 would be good, but it actually is. The entry point / prices for the alternatives are just too high.

There is also the classical Google Cardboard and a ton of licensed Cardboard Viewers which are less than the Homido +/- $50 (one can pick them up for about $10), but I don't like holding a paper-box in-front of my eyes myself.

I first was a skeptic, but then when I experienced how much more immersive the experience is I no longer think that VR is just a gimmick. There is a lot of hype indeed & I wouldn't recommend it for all types of games though. Rollercoaster games / fast movement ones make me sick. But for VNs this is ideal.

Interesting. Well, unfortunately I'll have to pass on this one. I don't even own a phone, let alone anything I could use with a VR device, Probably can't even afford a $50 VR set right now. But hey, when I get super mega rich (and obviously famous) from my VNs, I'll buy your thing. XD

Seriously though, from what I can see of your project, I love it. Keep up the good work.

Thanks you! I appreciate the support! Good luck with your VNs too!

A virtual reality VN?

What an amazing idea; something I definitely wouldn't have come up with on my own.

I wish you the best of luck!

It was a coincidence - I met my partner Stan Kuhn some time ago & he has an AR/VR company & a lot of IP. When we met he showed me all this technology / tech that's been lying there. I've thought that VR would be ideal for storytelling, because it has you be immersed in the story, the music & atmosphere and so we began developing this game.

I see some people move from VNs to a more RPG approach or to something more interactive, still 2D - I think that's still a way to go if developed correctly, but I wouldn't overdo it. I still think that VNs as-is are really good and what we should work on are things like presentations, the platform, etc. What I want to say is - there's definitely space in the VN realm to develop things further
