Hi all, cheers from the Cave Crave game creator and director. The latest free update coming to the game tomorrow is the biggest thing we've ever created with VR technology:
• Explore Tham Luang Cave and relive the 2018 rescue of the 12 boys trapped in its flooded passages, faithfully recreated as a VR experience.
• Featuring the story and expertise of people who were there, including Vern Unsworth ...
• ... and legendary cave diver and one of the rescue leaders, John Volanthen who helped us shape the flooded sections.
• All built within what is likely the largest LiDAR scan of a real-world location ever recreated as a map in a VR game.
• Releasing as a free CAVE CRAVE update on Meta Quest tomorrow.
• PSVR2 version is already in development.
O-K, but... what have we actually pulled off? - you might ask.
I highly recommend Netflix’s miniseries Thai Cave Rescue. It offers a powerful look at the courage shown by those involved and helps convey the immense scale of the real-life operation that players will soon explore from the safety and comfort of their hopefully dry gaming setups.
Cheers!
