About the Game

Irrational Exuberance is an experiment to probe the possibilities of full room-scale VR and the HTC Vive, unfolding organically as you discover and engage with deep space phenomena. From the small, micro-scale to the epic and infinite, the experience puts you on the edge of the universe. Irrational Exuberance: Prologue has been an audience favorite at the Sundance Film Festival and the Kaleidoscope tour and is praised as a defining VR experience by the media for its use of space, sense and setting. The full release, scheduled for late-2016, features many more worlds of wildly different sensations, interactions, and impossible vistas.

Featuring:
  • UNCOMPROMISING DESIGN: Exclusively designed for room-scale VR interaction, Irrational Exuberance is a non-violent, organic experience that offers cinematic moments of space, solace and spectacle.
  • AMPLIFIED SENSES: A highly tuned, evocative spatial audioscape takes audiences to surreal depths of space, from crumbling meteorites to chiming ephemera to the distant hum of stars.
  • HYPER PRESENT REALITY: Beautiful worlds, mysterious sensations, and nuanced interaction weave together to create a heightened sense and awareness of this alternate reality.
  • DEEP IMMERSION: An in-depth VR odyssey spanning the far reaches of the cosmos.
