Nevermind Review by Bob Washburne – November 13, 2015

Developer Flying Mollusk has had a vision to bring Nevermind to VR from the very beginning, and today marks its debut.

Our philosophy is that, though it clearly borrows from traditional “flatscreen” gaming, virtual reality truly is a different medium all its own. There are certain elements (like user interfaces) that work one way on a traditional screen that need to work differently in the fully-immersive, stereoscopic world of VR. To this end, the Flying Mollusk team has taken a focused approach to bringing Nevermind to VR. This is not a simple “port” to a new platform. As we always do, we’ve looked at the VR adaptation with the player in mind, focusing on comfort, ease of interaction, and immersion and have made subtle changes intended to leverage VR’s unique strengths rather than work against them.

Further, the Oculus Rift version will feature two new levels: Client #440 and #909 are now available and waiting for Neuroprobing.

The VR adaptation of Nevermind is available for Windows and Mac from the Oculus Store.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal.
