About
You are already dead.
In Bodyless, you become the ghost of a political prisoner wandering through the shadows of Taiwan’s martial law era. Float through confined cells, distorted courtyards, and fragmented memories where folklore and state control intertwine.
As you navigate shifting architecture and collapsing spaces, subtle mechanical systems infiltrate the environment. Sound surrounds you. Reality bends. Memory fragments. Bodyless is an immersive VR experience where history is not explained, but felt.
First-Person Ghost Perspective: Become the spirit of a political prisoner, drifting through spaces in VR.
Immersive Historical Atmosphere: Experience the era of martial law through space, sound, and perception.
Surreal Narrative World: A reality where folk beliefs, surveillance systems, and fragmented memories intertwine.

有点吓人,但是没有跳脸,一个还不错的小VR短片视频
Surreal non-interactive horror short film making great use of the medium. Makes me wish I had a more modern HMD, to appreciate in higher image quality.
A beautiful and moving art piece. Very little interactivity, if that's what you're looking for. Otherwise, this is totally worth viewing. *Edit: This experience no longer works, as it expired on October 15, 2020. It's a shame, because it a wonderful piece of work. I wish more people could experience this.
Very well done, an amazing experience. I'd normally say breathtaking, but it was aiming at something more profound and it achieved it. The UI was a bit glitchy, but was satisfactory for the level of interaction required (which was minimal). The result was an VR experience that's one of the best I've tried and I'll remember for a long time. This has become a new benchmark on my list of "artistic VR environments"
nice
Well, rift s and absolutely no problems running this app, unlike many other rift users noticed. Nice visuals and many things to think about. But if you prone to vr nausea I recommend to sit while watching this.
Took a very long time to load, but ran fine when it did. A strange, unsettling experience. Grim and evocative, with a touch of whatever is the opposite of anemoia. Probably one to avoid if bugs freak you out.
Very impressive art experience. Also quite lengthy with 25 minutes. Also: Nightmare fuel.
Doesn't work.
