Nice. But I recommend it only for people that already got their "vr legs".

Thanks
I really want to make this into a bird flying experience. With multiplayer it could be quite fun I think.
Here is a video I recorded with my phone.

WOW!
Man, this demo is doing something to me!
Honestly, try it out. At first it's a bit disorienting but when you get your "legs" just try to look behind you!
WOW!
Even sitting down I got vertigo! What a fantastic experience.
No sickness, just great stomach-turning thrills.

This was the most motion-sickness inducing thing I've tried on the rift.

I agree, it's great people are taking the time to create these experiences, but this really did make me feel ill like nothing else.
Probably not an ideal demo for the OR.

it helps with motion sickness to press s to go into slow-mo-mode.

This is an AWESOME demo ! It really feels like you're on one of those fairground rides that spins you around and backwards and all over.
So much fun ! I felt a much stronger sense of motion in this demo than all the others so far. If the Roller Coaster demo had the same 'feel' as this, watch out
Thanks for the demo !

That's funny, I didn't get the sick feeling. I got the good stomach-turning feeling like the Disneyland Teacups.
What was funny to me was how overwhelming it was. Like I couldn't take it any longer and had to escape. But in a good way like being tickled.
Interesting.

I absolutely love spinning rides, and they never cause me issues- I am more likely to find them soothing than upsetting. This, on the other hand, just made me go "Nope." almost immediately. I love G forces, but the visuals without the forces range from boring to nauseating.
