Hi MTBS community,
I'm the creative director of a new game for the Oculus Rift called Private Eye. Private Eye will be a cinematic, psychological thriller where the clues to catching a killer will be as much about spying on your neighbors as it will be about exploring your own mind. Inspired by great psychological games such as the Silent Hill series and by classic film-noir movies we hope to produce an original, atmospheric rift experience.
The first incarnation of Private Eye was as a VR Jam entry that went on to make the finalist list. The vouyeristic element was there but the gameplay was nothing more than a simple "find-an-object" type scenario. It got tired pretty quickly and so we aim to really improve on this aspect in the new game. For the past 2 months we have worked very hard on creating an original and compelling narrative and fleshed out the characters that you as a player will watch over. We haven't got a huge amount to show right now but we hope that will change over the next couple of weeks. We hope that we can get the support of the VR community on this project and would love to hear what you think of Private Eye or what you liked/didn't like of the original Jam effort.
We have just launched a website http://www.privateeyevr.com where you can find updates about our game.
Many thanks, Jake & the Private Eye team!
