About Clark | HOOVA VR
The Mill’s emerging technology team joined forces with Clark of Warp Records to produce a VR music video set to the artist’s latest track Hoova.
Hoova, a room-scale VR experience, explores a dark, dystopian future and investigates topics of isolation, dependency and identity in Virtual Reality.
Directed by The Mill’s Chief Creative Officer Angus Kneale and Executive Creative Director Ben Smith, this piece is also unique in its advanced use of game engine human characters; a notoriously difficult feat in visual effects.
Hoova takes an eerie look into a virtual reality led, isolated dystopian future, wherein each character is part of a frightening cycle in which they become consumed by the VR experience they are witnessing.
Each character seen in the experience was developed in CG using game engine technology. The Mill’s Emerging Tech team led by Joji Tsuruga created the game engine characters by using motion capture of live action talent. These characters are striking both in appearance and movement; choreographed to the music and animated to be accurate to the human form down to a single finger.

Clark | HOOVA VR is not a game. Games contain meaningful gamelike interaction and game loops, which are absent in this software. Instead of being a game, Clark | HOOVA VR is a software application that is a crap "art experience". All you do is sit still, no interaction, and listen to some crap music in VR. This is a complete waste of time and Steam store space. For those unfamiliar with what actually makes something a game, a "game loop" describes the interaction and feedback a gamer has when playing a game. Tetris, for example, has a game loop where a random block appears, the gamer interacts with the block to position it, and then the game decides if that finishes a row or not, increases the players score if any rows were completed, then gives the gamer another block to position. Counter-Strike has a game loop where a player seeks another player, tests their skill against that player by shooting them or being shot, the computer rewards the player if they win, and then if the player survives, they repeat that loop. There's no loop here, no true interactive feedback. It simply is not a game, it cannot be "played". This has misleadingly been launched in the "Games" section…1 found this helpful

Игра «Clark | HOOVA VR» — это увлекательный VR-эксперимент, сочетающий головоломки, физику и креативный подход. Погружение в виртуальный мир с помощью VR-очки захватывающее: действия происходят в реальном времени, а интерактивность подчеркивает инновационный подход разработчиков. Графика сдержана, но атмосфера создана безупречно. Игра учит мыслить нестандартно, но некоторые уровни кажутся излишне сложными. Подойдёт тем, кто ценит необычные механики и готов экспериментировать. Рекомендую для любителей VR-адвенчюр.
