Having released SUPERHOT VR for Oculus, we’re now starting to poke around supporting all the other VR systems (wink, WINK). I’ll keep you updated on the progress!
We got quite swallowed by work on redesigning SUPERHOT for VR but damn it was fun! I’ve spent my first week with the game just juggling and physically throwing objects at red guys :) . Realities of Virtual Reality The VR as a platform is still relatively fresh and full of uncharted territories. To be honest we had tons of frustrating, puzzle solving fun just testing the possibilities and iterating. It’s a super new technology so there is a lot to tackle and learn. No matter what we tried to take from the original SUPERHOT, we invariably ended up with a decision to either compromise and make it play poorly or to push through, work harder and redesign things from scratch straight into VR. Basic stuff like player movement or item interaction in VR forced us to completely change our approach to level architecture and gameplay. We’re not too good at compromising so pretty much everything in SUPERHOT VR is new, built with only VR in mind. It’s pretty exciting! You constantly learn and explore and then you learn some more.
Virtual reality brings a whole new level of immersion and freedom to games. SUPERHOT has always rewarded gameplay improvisation and VR closes a couple of doors for that but opens a whole lot more. People playtesting SUPERHOT VR pulled some amazing stunts that we could never think of while designing the game. We seriously can’t wait to push the release button and to see what people will come up with during the first playthroughs.
