YES YES YES YES YES This is really cool. An AMAZING piece of work showing what can be done with this technology. The spatial sound is incredible, the models and enviroment are great and cmon.. that explosion.. with debris flying around.. forward and then reversed.. cmon... Unfortunetly(?), this looks to have been a class projects of sorts (everyone gets A's) so I'm assuming this is it.. I'm really impressed and I hope a few of the devs get together and colaborate on a full fledged game. I'd really like to see this type of attention to detail, imagination and hard work more in the VR space and it's coming for sure.. but this is a great look at where VR should be headed IMO It's free. Download it.
Brilliant! It's like Blade Runner with video instead of pictures. It has an overarching story to parse together but also has the subtlest moments that make you say out loud, "I saw that! You cheeky f**k." The moment you super sleuth what happened is very satisfying. It's a quick adventure with a captivating mechanic and it makes me want more!

While the voice acting and animations need work, the concept of this is fantastic. It was fun putting the pieces together to see what happened actually happened. You think you figured it out until you look closer. It would be great to see something like this turn into a full game one day.
It's like, there is no real goal to this game. However it still got me hooked up. It made me really investigate how the events transpired. While doing so, it was also fun just to spy on what people were doing while I have full control of the timeline and can inspect every angle. The idea is amazing. Too bad you don't get to do anything with the information you discover. Would be interesting if there was some kind of quiz in the end to see how many details you discovered.

Just played Quanero yesterday and I was VERY impressed and pleased by it! If this were a full game, I would totally be willing to pay for it! So...PLEASE turn this into an actual commercial game! Here's what it needs to become a full game - a backstory (e.g. you're a detective, analyzing crime scenes and figuring out what happened)... - add a TON of different missions / stories - further enhance the user interface to allow for fast forwarding / rewinding (DEFINITELY keep the fine grained one you already have BUT, also add a "fast forwarding / rewinding" - this is important because the missions need to actually last more than just a few minutes (e.g. maybe make the full scene last like 10 to 15 minutes?) - add some improvements to make it very apparent that you ARE progressing (e.g. "clue found" when you focus / point to a certain evidence in the scene) Anyway, I really liked what you guys did so thank you and keep up the good work!
sadly, the game won`t work for us - tried a console controller but nothing happens, the game just won`t start
The most amazing short movie I've seen in my life. This is what narrative in VR is all about. El corto mas impresionante que he visto en mi vida. Asi debe ser la narrativa en RV.
This is a truly amazing and immersive VR experience. Kudos to the creators for making something original, intriguing and just plain awesome. It really pushes the limits of what is capable in VR. You feel like a futuristic investigator - reminds me of that movie Source Code mb?....or the scene in Iron Man 3 where they use holograms to replay/investigate the Extremis bomb attack. Really enjoyed analyzing the details of each interaction between the characters to uncover what happened in the bar. Would love to see more of this type of experience in a fully fleshed out adventure/investigation game.
I once saw a live theater event that allowed the audience to explore a whole warehouse full of scenery and actors. You had to run around through different rooms to find the story. You could follow actors around, touch things and explore. It was an incredible experience. This short demo captures the esscence of all of that, pretty much. This concept is the future of VR experiences. Yes you are watching a scene play out, but with the freedom of going wherever you want, looking at whatever you want, listening, and investigating whatever you want. I could do that all day, especially if you had to dig up clues to advance the story. Voice acting and script are great. Loved the guy selling VR drugs in the corner. Devs, if you are reading, expand this concept with a little more interaction and you have a formadable experience on your hands.
