14 DAY TRIAL // Greenwood Games brings horror fans the first title exclusively for the Oculus Rift virtual reality goggles, Alone.
It seems that the game has made quite a good impression as it has been chosen as one of the finalists for the Oculus Rift VVR Jam 2013 and hopes to get even more backers on Kickstarter.
When talking about his decision to develop Alone only for Oculus Rift, Brian Cohen admits that “I've been reading skepticism about the Oculus Rift and hearing a lot of rhetoric about how Virtual Reality failed in the 90's. To those people I say “seeing is believing”. The first time you put on the Rift you'll just have a deep down feeling of ‘Wow.This is what I've been waiting for.”
“The future of VR is happening now and the Oculus Rift is making it happen. We knew that we had to invest in this device and the development of Alone was our way of doing that. Building on the foundation of our well-received prototype we've expanded Alone into a feature length experience. We're developing a game that will live up to the standards of seasoned Gamers, and will provide potential Rift buyers with a taste of something new and innovative,” Cohen went on to mention.
Players can try out the 10-minute demo on Greenwood Games official website and know that it requires the Oculus Rift, Headphones, and an Xbox Gamepad.
The developing team is hoping to raise $25,000 / €18,197 until November 16, this ensuring the basic financing of Alone.
