Death is only the beginning (VR Story game)

I am making a VR story driven game involving a protagonist who has given up on life, they want to escape reality and then on this day an app installs itself on their phone, saying "Do you wish you could be reborn in another world?"


The world zooms right by and they find themself in a park, moments later they are floating into the night sky, the world drifting further from vision.


Upon reawakening the world is in a state of ruin, spirits flitter in the air and there are few survivors, interacting with the world plays out some of the characters stories as you become drawn into their lives and the events of this reality. The difference between you and them is night and day, you aren't human anymore and despite your abilities the world only people left are destroying themselves and natural disasters frequently occure and creatures appear to attack them.


Basically the odds are against the protagonist and from one reality to another, the conflict remains the same. But as you complete quests, new arrivals like you appear from other worlds in similar circumstances and they find a place they belong and trying to make a difference.


Gods are rampant in this world but it is also similar to our modern world, we are connected.

Please add me on Discord at the above nametag, I'd love to collaborate and get people involved in development. Voice actors, artists, programmers and musicians included!


Let's get started!!

Submitted

This sounds like a pretty cool idea, go for it!

I already have my project decided on, so I won't be joining you, but I do hope you find yourself some good allies and friends :)

Thank you! I really appreciate your thoughts, I will try to update this thread with development.


I will check your profile when you submit your game to and always welcome to connect with me on discord.

Sounds cool -- if a bit scary!  I decided against trying for VR this jam.  Will look forward to trying any that manage!

Do you think you'll publish only for desktop or Quest/2 too?

Good luck!  

I'm withdrawing from the jam due to overwork and feeling taxed. I overscoped considerably and i didn't realise how much of a hurdle it would be to get VR setup and with wanting to do everything myself it was overkill for a gamejam.

I will be continuing to work on the game idea and iterating on the vr concepts over on my forum devblog I started here: https://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=64660&p=552545#p552545

And I'll be continuing to jam, only with a little more foresight and preparations going in... Thanks, good luck on your entries! Do get in touch with me.
