Check out the Mega Man Legends Fan-Game for Oculus Rift


"VR DASH" is an experimental Mega Man Legends 3-inspired project designed for Oculus Rift. The game hopes to put players in the shoes of Barrett and Aero and become, what could very well be, the first VR Mega Man fan-game.


Development of the game is split into two segments. The first visual demo, VR CARRIER, has players riding with Barrett on a Sky Carrier:





The second portion of the game, "Treasure of Sky Pirates", is a bit more action-oriented. There's actually a demo up for grabs on Oculus Share. Visually, it has a long ways to go:




More images and video clips can be found at the developer's blog here. It should be interesting to see how this turns out. If you've got the proper tools, feel free to grab the demo above!

  2. Now, that looks promising! I can't wait to grab a Rift and try this one out.

  3. Google has an app that will mimick the occulus rift functionality on your phone, they also have free blueprints to build a cardboard (or whatever you like) headset to hold the phone at the correct distance from your face and magnify the image to give better depth. You can also buy it as a kit. Since phones are pretty much all gameworthy these days, I'd recommend looking into Google Cardboard first, if you have a modern phone.
