Time Machine VR Launches on Steam Early Access
MONTREAL, Canada - August 28, in the year of our Lord
2015- Minority Media Inc. announced today that Time
Machine VR is now available on Steam Early Access. Attendees at
this weekend’s PAX Prime convention, in Seattle, are encouraged
to visit Minority and try the game at booth number 7408.
Time Machine VR is one of the first truly native VR games to hit
Steam Early Access, running on Facebook's Oculus Rift DK2 and
Crescent Bay. A playable 10-minute demo is available for free on
Steam, with premium access to the game’s first hours of content
available at an introductory price of $9.99. Minority plans to
release major updates throughout the rest of the year -
approximately every four weeks - expanding the game with new
levels, creatures, features, and more. The price of the game
will then increase with every major update.
“Making one of the first VR-native games is a challenge, and
it’s very different from simply adding VR support to a
conventional game,” said Vander Caballero, CEO and Creative
Director of Minority Media. “For Time Machine VR, we’ve done a
ton of research and testing to make sure it offers a meaningful
immersive experience. But, we need the feedback and enthusiasm
of other true VR fans to help TMVR become a memorable game. I’m
sure that Steam Early Access is the best way for us to achieve
this.”
In Time Machine VR, a plague is consuming humankind.
Civilization faces extinction. As a time-travelling scientist,
you must go back to the Jurassic and face ancient creatures
whose DNA holds the key to our survival. Pilot your time machine
through prehistoric oceans, into an ecosystem teeming with
ancient creatures. Navigate a dangerous food chain, tracking,
probing, scanning and baiting these beasts, and save the human
race. With an Oculus Rift DK2 or Crescent Bay, and a controller,
players will fully immerse themselves into a prehistoric
underwater world and come face-to-face with a slew of ancient
creatures like they’ve never done before.
