About This Game

Irrational Exuberance is an experiment to probe the possibilities of full room-scale VR and the HTC Vive, unfolding organically as you discover and engage with deep space phenomena. Prologue is the first taste of the galactic fantasy, delivering you to a lonely asteroid in deep space, underneath comets and giant stars. Irrational Exuberance has been an audience favorite at Sundance and the Kaleidoscope tour and praised as a defining VR experience by the media for its use of space, sense and setting.

The full release, scheduled for late-2016, will feature dramatic interactions, deeply-immersive moments, and impossible vistas.

Featuring:

UNCOMPROMISING DESIGN: Exclusively designed for room-scale VR interaction, Irrational Exuberance is a non-violent, organic experience that offers cinematic moments of space, solace and spectacle.
AMPLIFIED SENSES: A highly tuned, evocative spatial audioscape takes audiences to the surreal depths of space, from crumbling meteorites to chiming ephemera to the distant hum of stars.
HYPER PRESENT REALITY: Beautiful worlds, mysterious sensations, and nuanced interaction weave together to create a heightened sense and awareness of this alternate reality.
COMPREHENSIVE PREVIEW: A short, but impactful experience that foretells the events of the full Irrational Exuberance release.

It was pretty enthralling being at the precipice of a rock in the midst of outer space. I wasn't encountering any issues breaking apart the small asteroid, but about 30 seconds to a minute into the experience it began to stutter between my VR console and the experience. Pretty unsettling. Also when there was a transition this same stuttering would occur. Looking forward to when this will be fixed.

OK, now that I changed some SteamVR settings, this runs beautifully. I LOVE the concept and as a prologue of a future full game/experience this really shows off how awesome VR can be!
