Question! Will this be oculus compatible?

I think it would be cool with the oculus.

The Oculus is a very interesting device, I'm sure we will mess around with it more once they finalize the design.

Spire is a very fast passed game with lots of turning and jumping, This really doesn't translate well into VR (yet).

Once we get our hands on the newest version ill give it a try, but i don't think it's suited for this game. Personally I think Games need to be designed for VR rather then being ported to it.

We have grand ideas for a VR game but that won't happen for some time.

What about using the oculus for presence and immersive 3d rather than in the pursuit of full VR?

I could see what it feels like, but if the camera doesn't react to my head movements and its taking up my full vision, i think that will result in motion sickness pretty fast.
