C O S M

Great potential, bad execution and progress. The developer had grand plans for this application. I bought it mainly for its advertised possible features of uploading my own DNA or protein sequences for visualization in Virtual Reality. The postential is beyond any one's wildest dreams for us researchers. For accurate VR illustration of actual molecular genetics mechanism can help gapping the problem of scientifc research and public awareness. For example, the ability of visulization real time transcription factory assembly in nuclei will be great. However from the updated notes the developer is shifting towards high school level education, which is a huge waste for an app that do a lot more.

Pretty cool in VR it's like being inside the microscope. Vive controller support is good which wasn't clear from the video. Transition effect may be nauseating. you can choose different paths which gives a sense of exploration Needs more content.

C O S M is short and lacking polish, but these are nothing to be expected from such an early release title. The concept, however, is excellent. It is a simple exploration application that brings basic cell biology to life. As it stands, the game suffers from early build graphics and a repetitive soundscape that weakens the immersion. I also found the transitions while zooming to be a bit jarring. But for lifelong learners or people with middle school aged kids, this is a nice little addition to the VR library. I will definitely be following updates to this title with interest and am looking forward to the finished product.

This title still needs a good amount of work but I can already tell that it is going to be great. We need more educational titles for VR. It still has a few big bugs to be worked out, so maybe wait til it has a patch or 2 before buying, but im still giving it a thumbs up.

I wanted to like this, but it's just not what I hoped.

fantastic VR microscope. Great sense of scale

Not enough depth or visual detail yet but could become something someday.

Interesting concept but the execution is a little short.
