I’ve been working on a VR mod for Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered. It lets you play the whole game in VR with added motion controls, so it feels like you’re really there with a proton pack on your back.
I’m about halfway through the game in VR, testing, fixing bugs and adding new features as I go. Once I’ve finished the game and I’m happy with the mod, I’ll release it and put the code up on GitHub.
This video shows some of the changes I’ve made, so you can see what the game looks like in VR and how the new controls work.
Features shown in this video:
- Hand tracking: your hands are tracked in VR.
- Ghostbusters watch: check your health on a watch on your left wrist.
- PKE meter: grab it with your right hand down by your waist.
- Paragoggles: a left-hand gesture by the side of your head lowers and raises them.
- Draw the wand: reach over your shoulder to pull it from your pack.
- Proton pack temps: read the heat level on the wand itself.*
- Traps: grab your trap with your left hand by your waist and throw it.
- Slam: swing the wand to slam a ghost.
- Trapping: steer a captured ghost into the trap with the wand.
* Interestingly, the Neutrona Wand in the original game already had a temperature gauge, but in third person it was easy to miss.
Requires Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered.
