A downloadable game for Windows and Android

Better description coming soon (it has been a wild few weeks!)

About

Sight Unseen is a Virtual Reality game about using each eye lens differently for game mechanics.

One of your eyes is a cybernetic optic and can see in infrared vision – but only in one half of your vision!

Pushing this concept further is the ability to take your eye out of your head and throw it around corners, allowing you to see from multiple places simultaneously, to find enemies and hidden codes to progress.

The player must adapt to using these super-perceptive powers to identify and avoid threat.

Install instructions

This game works better with the .exe build, which works through SteamVR.

On Meta Quest 2, download the Oculus PC application and set up either Air Link or use a Link Cable (USB-C cable) to plug in. Launch SteamVR and once it works, load the game through the exe file.

Alternatively, if you can get the Meta Quest headsets to run the .apk, it SHOULD work (but is untested as I did not have access to developer settings on the headset I borrowed to make this game).
