UPDATE 30/04/2018: Before reading this article, you should know that VRTK is actually alive again! Read this article of mine where I announce version 4 of VRTK and how it has been possible.

It has come that time of the year… the one when I’m going to celebrate Christmas by eating a lot of foods, having a lot of toasts and buying a lot of gifts (ah, if you don’t know what gifts to buy, check out my guide on AR/VR gifts!). Then will come the New Year’s […]

Today I’ve had the pleasure of trying First Class VR, an edutainment experience on Steam developed by the Chinese studio Light And Digital Technology that is aimed at teaching you all the history of flying, from the first experiments to our most modern shuttles and rockets. The experience is interesting, but also pretty confusing. Let […]
Today I’ve tried Apocalypse Rider, a game for Gear VR by the Brazilian Studio VR Monkey. It’s a very simple game, but I found it intriguing anyway. The gameplay is very straightforward: at every game level, you’re on a motorbike on a long straight road and you have to go from the starting point to […]
