I was a huge fan of Manifold Garden, and love VR games that experiment with natural locomotion like Unseen Diplomacy or Eye of the temple, so getting this is a no-brainer!
Hotel Infinity launches today on Meta Quest & PS VR2!
It's a roomscale VR experience built around natural locomotion. Every step you take in real life moves you through the game

I got a notification that Laser Dance hit early access. This looks fantastic! What a great use of mixed reality. In a separate video, the dev talks about accessibility, too, which is great cos my body sure as heck can’t do what’s shown in the trailer! youtu.be/eQq6l48HZt0

"Little Critters does many things right. It minds the little details. The game is frenetic, accessible, and fun. And it just works, in the way Steve Jobs famously described the magic of early iPhone devices… this “tower defense” game brings the tower home."
