While there is useful information to be found here, the data is also misleading in its lack of differentiation. Not all VR causes motion sickness, and the ones that do vary by extent. MR (which is what Cook is selling) generally doesn't, at all. 1/2
Here's a breakdown showing the motion sickness differences between men and women.

Tim Cook told us it was our next PC, better than Mac and iPhone.

Can you imagine if iPhones or Macs regularly made 7% of men and 22% of women nauseated when using them?

Hubris and greed is a helluva drug.

Only 5 days left until Öoo releases! 🎉
The full version is easier to get lost than the demo
but if a Warp Worm eats you, you’ll see the map
and can warp to any one you’ve found!

The genius of Nama Takahashi strikes again! Taking a cue from Metroid, Öooo reinvents jumping for clever puzzle solving effect.

Same as ElecHead, design is on point aesthetically as well as mechanically. The levels feel like a collection of Haiku - concise retro 2D goodness.
The demo of Öoo is now available to play on Steam and itch.io!
It’s just a short 5–15 minute experience, so please give it a try!

RT @OutOfSightVR: We sat down with the Creative Lead of Flat2VR Studios, Emily! She explained what makes Out of Sight VR so intense and so hard to walk away from.
Early Access launches tomorrow on Steam - wishlist now! https://t.co/0yEV1J26Oj

I'm not buying a Switch 2 but that is kind of cool. You can even close its mouth to obstruct the camera.
I guess it should work as a regular USB webcam with other hardware as well?
Me: That camera accessory for Switch 2 is bullshit. Who is ever going to need that.

Not a bad thing in my book. Minimaps are like subtitles, if they're there I can't not look at them. And a minimap turns a 3d game into a 2d game. Defeats the trouble of crafting a detailed 3d environment.
There still is a map when you need it, just not during active movement.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 won't have a mini map to preserve its sense of discovery, says producer

My favorites were Ghost Town and Out of Sight. Also Memoreum but that might be leaning too much on the horror side for me.
What a show! 🤩

Edge of Nowhere is just 20 bucks... Amazing game, especially at that price.
March 11, 2025 at 8:03 AM
I cannot recommend Edge of Nowhere enough. It's an Uncharted-like (well I never played Uncharted so to me it's more of a "Tomb Raider 2013"-like) and if you appreciate 3rd person games in VR, it's among the best native such titles. Get it now that it's back.

Games evolve as you develop them and at some point I thought, what if the eyes on the dice were hidden until selected? Since I use a fancy shader that renders my dice on simple cube meshes (12 tris), it was a matter of making the radius of the eyes a variable which I just fade in to unhide the eyes.

I used a viper mesh and material by Protofactor for this "year of the snake" logo.

Glad to see it doing well on Steam. Might end up the only game ever made with such a scope.

Xbox Developer Direct was fire. I'm especially looking forward to Clair Obscur. Great to see so many UE games, which I will hopefully be playing in VR with praydog's UEVR mod.

Real time 3d graphics changed games forever. They didn't just enable dynamic camera perspectives and plenty of smooth animation, they also served as inspiration for 2d games. Mario's triple jump or Link's roll were added because large environments necessitated fun traversal methods. 1/4 #gamedev
