Observatory: A VR Variety Pack (2016)

Observatory is a variety pack for VR headsets that includes three games and a music video: Procedural downhill racing, spacejet-horror with microscopic submarines, island-puzzling with physics-based creatures, and a trippy official music video for a song by Icky Blossoms.

The three games in Observatory are all quite different, but they’re all united by their high quality and innovative use of VR.

Downward Spiral is a procedural downhill racing game that’s all about speed and reflexes. You’ll race through a variety of procedurally generated tracks, dodging obstacles and trying to beat your best time. The game’s simple controls make it easy to pick up and play, but the challenging tracks will keep you coming back for more.

Subnautica: Below Zero is a spacejet-horror game that puts you in control of a microscopic submarine. You’ll explore a vast underwater world, collecting resources and avoiding predators. The game’s beautiful graphics and immersive sound design create a truly terrifying experience.

The Gallery – Episode 1: Call of the Star Seed is an island-puzzling game with physics-based creatures. You’ll explore a mysterious island, solving puzzles and interacting with the strange creatures that inhabit it. The game’s physics-based puzzles are challenging but fair, and the beautiful island setting is a joy to explore.

In addition to the three games, Observatory also includes a music video for the song “The World is Yours” by Icky Blossoms. The video is a trippy and surreal experience that’s perfect for relaxing and enjoying the music.

Overall, Observatory is a must-have for any VR enthusiast. With three diverse games and a trippy music video, there’s something for everyone.
