Missing Pictures: Tsai Ming-Liang

This is a 12 minute, purely cinematic 360 VR movie short. There are no interactions. It is fully voiced & available in several languages, including English. This is a story about a Malaysian kid who had a special relationship with his grandfather. The story is bittersweet. However, we see the origins of the author's love of cinema from this experience.

Missing Pictures : Tsai Ming-Liang is a free VR experience about a movie that was never made. It worked on my Index system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. Tsai Ming-Liang, the Taiwanese maestro of slow cinema, doesn’t have a real “missing picture”.

Maybe check this out if you like movies or movie making or are a producer or movie studio exec looking for a project.

This is just a electronic documentary about a filmmaker nobody ever heard of, about his childhood in Malaysia. Let's all ask the question: Is watching a documentary about a filmmaker a game? No, no it is not. We get this non-game shovelware on Steam whenever your usual Starbucks barista/McDonalds frycook art school dropout finally gets a restraining order from the local art galleries so turns to Steam Direct to try get their art published somewhere so they can finally dream of moving out of their parents basement. It's true that games can be art... art is where the pinnacles of craftsmanship and quality meet vision and narrative to create an experience far greater than the sum of the parts. This isn't a game at all, and the craftsmanship and narrative are terrible. This isn't making art better, it's just making gaming worse. For those unfamiliar with what actually makes something a game, a "g…
