VR is a go!
🕑 Added 2018-09-02 18:58:03 +0000 UTCSo, I used my Patreon money and some of my salary and invested it in a new graphics card and an Oculus Rift.
After some screwing around, I immediately went into the Unreal Engine 4, created a VR template and imported Cleo with some animations. Some coding later and I was able to change her size and switch through animations. I then thought to record a little video, to show you guys what I've been up to and there you go.
I must say, I do love Cleo but seeing her in a virtual space, right before you is just incredible! I probably spent more time just looking at her and getting really close to her than a sane person would have but I certainly don't regret it ;P
So yeah, my plan in the long run is to get VR going for Giant's Sandbox of course, although since I'm totally new to developing with VR, this might take a while to figure out. Though Epic do have some good documentation on it, so I'm sure this'll work out, one way or another.

Oh man, cause I'm a VR nut the first thing I usually ask people creating good quality games like this, is will there be VR support? Given that this is my favourite macro/micro/vore game out there, you have no idea how happy I am at this news! :D congrats and thanks for going the extra mile!

It is! :3
Very happy to hear you were able to get a GPU and the Oculus. Having that sense of scale is mesmerizing.

Not yet at least. It's not like this will only be around for a limited time.

Watching you play around with Cleo's feet. I'm just like "Yesyesyesyesssss~ <3 <3 " internally. This is something us macro/micro folks have been dreaming of for a loooong time. It's gonna be a pleasure to experience it.

Will do ;3

Congrats on making the jump into VR, I'm sure it's gonna take some work and time but I'm really excited to see Giant's Sandbox having VR support in the future! Make sure you give Robo Recall a try, it's absolutely one of my favourite games :3
