About the Game

Breathless is an immersive virtual reality train ride through a dystopian landscape. At it's core, Breathless is a music video created by electronic artist Croom featuring the vocal work of Berlin based experimental artist, Audriana Acuña. Anchoring it is the masterful mixing work of Dylan Cameron (S U R V I V E, Troller), with his knack for bringing out exquisite and impactful bass without cluttering the haunting vocals and masterer Jess Labrador (Chasms).

Croom worked with 3d environmental artists from around the world to help bring his vision to life. Hasan Zeki Göğebakan from Istanbul, Turkey was the lead developer.

This is a short VR music video experience, not a game. Users can view 360 degree angles, listening to the original song, while sitting stationary on a simulated train ride. The Oculus 2 controls only the exit, pause, and start functions.

This VR experience requires an Oculus 2 headset, Windows 10, and an Oculus Link connection enabled.
