About the game

Irrational Exuberance is an experiment to probe the possibilities of full room-scale VR and the HTC Vive, unfolding organically as you discover and engage with deep space phenomena. Prologue is the first taste of the galactic fantasy, delivering you to a lonely asteroid in deep space, underneath comets and giant stars. Irrational Exuberance has been an audience favorite at Sundance and the Kaleidoscope tour and praised as a defining VR experience by the media for its use of space, sense and setting.

The full release, scheduled for late-2016, will feature dramatic interactions, deeply-immersive moments, and impossible vistas.

Featuring:

UNCOMPROMISING DESIGN: Exclusively designed for room-scale VR interaction, Irrational Exuberance is a non-violent, organic experience that offers cinematic moments of space, solace and spectacle.
AMPLIFIED SENSES: A highly tuned, evocative spatial audioscape takes audiences to the surreal depths of space, from crumbling meteorites to chiming ephemera to the distant hum of stars.
HYPER PRESENT REALITY: Beautiful worlds, mysterious sensations, and nuanced interaction weave together to create a heightened sense and awareness of this alternate reality.
COMPREHENSIVE PREVIEW: A short, but impactful experience that foretells the events of the full Irrational Exuberance release.

Irrational Exuberance is the most tantalizing experience on the Vive so far, showcasing the Vives tech (VR+motion controllers) in a fully immersive AAA scifi experience of something completely out of this world. I call it an experience, because its not a game (there are no gamified interactions, no objectives to meet, etc), you simply interact with your environment, and enjoy the scenery. The graphics are clear and stylised which works excellent on the Vives limited screen resolution, but the truly astounding feature is the physics. You can smash rocks, push crystals, etc and everything moves perfectly. Its really simple, but its incredibly wonderous. And its free. And when the full experience/game comes out I will be buying it immediately. Quick edit: Actually, if I had one criticism its that it only lasts 5 minutes (literally), you get involuntarily teleported into the next reality far too soon. I wish I could pick when to transition, so I could play in each space till I was sated. Buffalo Vision, could you please make it so we need to step into the portal/activate something to continue?

Beautiful, otherworldly experience that really shows off Vive's potential. Not a game as such, more like a work of art. This should be one of the first things for every Vive owner to download.
