Developers looking to dive into the virtual reality space are likely attracted by the unprecedented immersion that the medium provides. Being able to tell stories that are uniquely intimate while providing action-packed moments that instantly transform into memorable experiences is certainly part of the draw. That said, the VR space still presents a number of challenges for developers who want to translate what is known into something new.
That is the goal of Evasion – a newly-announced ‘bullet hell’ shooter set in a post-apocalyptic alien world that has been built from the ground up in Unreal Engine 4 for free-move locomotion and cooperative team combat – two challenging areas of the VR space that developer Archiact isn’t afraid to tackle head on.
I recently caught up with Lead Software Engineer Brian Milligan at Archiact VR to find out more about Evasion and how they hope it will come to define co-op VR experiences.
