FEATURES:
- PresenZ’s volumetric movie format, powered by V-Nova compression, allows you to experience unprecedented immersion comfort compared to "standard" VR 360° movies
- Position and orientation of the VR headset is tracked at all times inside the movie, allowing you to get closer to objects and characters as well as to look around or behind them, creating a real sense of scale and immersion
- 6DoF eliminates the motion sickness commonly associated with VR 360° movies
- V-Nova’s point cloud compression technology compresses the file to a small enough size to be downloaded and played on standard VR gaming set ups, finally bringing breath-taking immersion experiences to VR Gaming PCs at home

Quick 10 minute demo of a VR movie experience. Weirdly stuttery unless installed on ssd. Very large 30GB install. Watched it on a PSVR2. The animations and models are really well done. I think volumetric VR for a movie is difficult to pull off, especially in an action movie due to the amount cuts, repositioning of the camera, different angles, and different zooms that directors use to accentuate and focus on the beats and choreography of the action. While I think this demo succeeds for the most part, ultimately you end up just passively staying in one spot, due to the camera moving constantly without your control. You end up watching it like a regular movie, that just moves all around you. It is super immersive, but a lot of expensive work and compute to add the ability to move your head around inside of the space, ruining the director's intentional camera positioning, or getting sick when the scene forces you into a different perspective against your will. This is a really good effort that I enjoyed though. It had some really nice forced perspective shots that reminded me of "camera inside a sink kind of stuff" from things like Breaking Bad, or some older Jackie Chan movies. …1 found this helpful
It is not nearly enough stressed how exact your computer specs need to be in order to view this short film. You need a very strong cpu, a strong nvidia gpu and a very fast (NVMe) ssd. It won't work on a regular ssd - it will keep buffering and you can't make it load ahead by pause'ing it. I can't believe I paid for this, and I'm not surprised it's free now.
Hmmm.... Hard to recommend this one. The experience itself is actually cool. 6dof video is super fun and immersive. However, this game has performance issues that just ruin the experience. For me and my fairly beefy PC, I had constant audio stuttering throughout the movie. The movie itself is 90% fighting and 10% story. The story is weirdly negative as well, so don't expect a happy ending, haha. Visuals - 9/10 Sound - 4/10 Experience 2/10 Wow Factor - 7/10 Overall - 6/10
This is an awesome little VR short film, full of action, full of emotion, recommended.
Can't get it to run on AMD.
