About A Fear Of Heights, And Other Things

This is a VR experience which shows how virtual reality can invoke an involuntary response. I created the first scene - the canyon - as I wanted to demonstrate the effect to friends without having to guide them through a game to a suitable point. It was so effective I wanted to expand on it. This is very much aimed at being an experience you can keep in your library and bring out to show new users - it isn't a game so there aren't any challenges in it, and will have less effect on veteran VR users.

The current stationary scenes are:
  • A wooden bridge over a canyon
  • A narrow ledge on a cliff
  • The top of a building in a city
  • Being in a dark passageway with only a flip lighter
  • Being trapped underground with the walls closing in
  • In the ocean surrounded by sharks
  • On a window cleaning gondola on the side of a skyscraper

There are also scenes which include player movement:
  • Performing a base jump
  • Swinging round a city with grappling hooks

✦ AI summary

Players praise the impressive visuals and immersive nature scenes, along with the fun web-slinging mechanics and the experience's effectiveness at creating genuine physical reactions like vertigo and loss of balance in VR. However, many criticize the lack of actual gameplay, limited interactivity, and short length, with some finding it boring despite its low price point and feeling it offers little beyond a brief sensory novelty.

I was more impressed with the visuals and realism of the nature scenes like canyon and cliff. Also the webslinging thing was pretty fun!

This is fun to introduce people to VR with. I showed my dad the base jumping off a building one and he nearly lost his balance and fell.

A Fear of Heights, And Other Things, developed and published by Fulby Technologies, is a compact virtual reality experience designed to provoke physical and emotional reactions through immersion rather than gameplay. It is less a traditional game and more a sensory experiment—a digital playground where players are exposed to environments that challenge their comfort zones. Released during the early rise of VR, it was created as a showcase for the medium’s potential to evoke fear, tension, and exhilaration purely through presence. Its title perfectly describes its purpose: to make players confront not just vertigo, but a range of primal reactions triggered by physical disorientation, confinement, darkness, and danger. The experience is composed of several short, self-contained scenes, each designed to trigger a specific type of fear or sensation. One moment you might find yourself standing on a narrow ledge hundreds of feet above the ground, looking down at the city far below; the next, you’re in a pitch-dark passage with only a flickering lighter, or surrounded by the silent dread of an underwater environment with sharks circling nearby. These vignettes are crafted to take advanta…

I mean its the cheapest you are gonna find Spiderman simulator, that gotta be worth 1 dollar
Not recommended Jul 26, 2024
I was only able to play for 11 minuets before i got so bored I quit. I'm not one to leave reviews, especially to a game that is just a dollar but I honestly don't like it at all. It would be better if you were able to move around or the game had better details. I know the game is just a dollar but honestly it should have just been free.

Download just to play the base jump it'll put you on the floor guaranteed.
