VRFocus Preview: Proteus with the Oculus Rift

VRFocus - Even after three playthroughs, Proteus remains something of a mystery. First reaching PC in late January 2013, this is a procedurally generated experience in which players explore a relatively small island. In a sense it’s reminiscent of 2012’s Dear Esther in that all you can do is simply take in the sights, though in reality the vivid pixel art, lack of direct narrative, surreal audio and constantly-changing world make it a different beast. Now a small team is porting original developers Ed Key and David Kanaga’s vision to virtual reality (VR) with Oculus Rift-compatibility. An early hands-on suggests that this new version is set to add another layer to this small ‘2D’ treat.

This game will obviously make the shift to Rift easy. I didn't really understand the concept of the game but found it to be very relaxing.

That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.

Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.

But it's EA. They don't think.

I agree. It would sell better on PSVR2 right now.

A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?

Abnor_Mal357d ago

Not into F1 racing, but still a missed opportunity.

ApocalypseShadow357d ago

That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.

Abnor_Mal357d ago

Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.

I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.

Knushwood Butt357d ago

Just watched the trailer of Low-Fi. Most definitely on my radar.

Although I never owned an oculus, I played the demo for this at an electronics store. Pretty impressive in an early goings of VR title.
