Out of Time

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 3[/h1] You can view my VR gameplay here: https://youtu.be/dy4Td0zrKqI Consider this a neutral recommendation. This is an experimental artistic black & white experience that is endless. Since art is very subjective, I have chosen to abstain from scoring it. On the Meta Quest 3 you can move in 6 DOF. Right or left trigger is up, right or left grab button is down, and the joysticks will move you in 4 directions with forward being in the direction you're facing. Much like space, where up can be down and left could be right as it's all relative to your position, such is art. It seems infinite, but I believe it is indeed finite. You can reach the very bottom and very top of the installation, as well as out of bounds. You'll hear sounds. You can move towards them if you wish. However, it is a meditative experience, so indeed nothing happens or at least nothing happens because of you or your input. Your perspective may change though. It's running on the Unreal Engine 5. On my RTX 5090, it seemed to be running at a steady 90 fps. I did not experience any serious issues or bugs, although it did reset by itself and I'm not sure if that was intended, but I think so. You can play comfortably seated in theory, but you'll probably want to play standing so you can turn around and view stuff (there is no artificial turning).

A digital altered state of consciousness. Not a game, but a sensory instrument. If you are looking for gameplay, look elsewhere. "Out of Time" is a serious audiovisual installation that acts like white noise for your entire nervous system. It’s a precision-engineered tool composed of four distinct interconnected spaces (Darkness, Depths, Chaos, Clouds). It doesn't guide you; it absorbs you. The Experience: It works on the principle of sensory overstimulation to induce a state of flow. You can jump in for 5 minutes to reset, or—like I did—spend 4 hours lying on the floor in the "Caligo" level, drifting deep into your own psyche. It functions almost like a drug-free trip. The progression is masterful: * Darkness: Sparks curiosity. * Depths: Calms you down before the storm. * Chaos: Delivers total sensory overstimulation. * Clouds: Brings a final state of bliss and closure, letting you drift "out of time." Visually, it leverages Unreal Engine 5 to create abstract, breathing environments. Sonically, it isolates you from reality. After a long session, I felt genuinely changed. It’s intense, sometimes uncomfortable, but ultimately cathartic. Verdict: 10/10 – A mandatory experience for digital psychonauts and art lovers.

Excellente expérience, cette oeuvre originale est très esthétique. Une très bonne découverte.

Jako artysta - muzyk mogę śmiało polecić tą instalację artystyczną. Jest to zupełnie nowe i niespotykane doznanie. W tej grze łatwiej się zrelaksować po pracy, pomedytować i poszukać inspiracji do działania. Polecam każdemu, nie tylko artystom.

Sound is ok in general but visualy are some conplex shapes, its deep yes but it could have been more so its only worth 0.5€, definetly not 15,79€ worth. It relaxes a bit, but you should work on your asset creating skills and make more content in the game, also oculus 2 is not recommend for this experience.

Relaxing experience, makes you stay present for a while in this overstimulating world we live in today. Didn't experience any performance issues or bugs.

Dieses Machwerk ist für 15,79€ eine absolute Frechheit. Es soll einen entspannen, aber in Wirklichkeit ist es ein Ansammlung von Brumm Tönen und einigen Fraktal Landschaften. Keine Einstellungsmöglichkeiten vorhanden und die Abwechslung der Garfik ist wie die einer Mondlandschaft. https://youtu.be/NRMVbMPllBc

Only spent a short while having a first look but I really like the concept and the experience. Its bold with its binary look but could do with some antialiasing options as the geometory can shimmer some im places top say the least. I am a Shaman who has been into and creating digital and physical art since the 80's. The opening sound is almost identical to one I had created in the 90's for an animation so this kind of work is very much my vibe. Its far from a game experience so don't expect excitement. I did feel a sense of dread on returning to the lower levels and felt glad to see the lighter areas from the dark. I wasn't paid for my review or given a free copy. I bought it on sale. Its not an easy recommendation but neither is recommending going to an art gallery unless you want to go. I look forward to spending some time in this experience further. Locomotion controls for controller based turning would have been nice addition

Не настолько атмосферно, чтобы просить за это такую цену. Возврат средств через 7 минут.

Do not expect a game. This is interesting meditative experience.
