The Amusement – What It’s About
In the game, players take on the role of Samantha Burkhart, a young woman tasked by her mother to investigate her late father's abandoned amusement park. She explores the grounds, discovers many mysterious clues, faces puzzles to solve, and is confronted by her own childhood memories of the difficult relationship between her parents. Real-life Luna Parks from the 1920s inspired the amusement park in the game.
The Amusement - The VR Technology
Players use “Redirected Walking” technology, developed by Curvature Games, which translates every real-world step into the game to create an even more intense and immersive adventure. In addition to the walking technology, "The Amusement" features various locomotion techniques: climbing, swinging, or cart rides. Players only need a 2x2-meter clear space or less to explore the game's environments.
Curvature Games
Founded in 2020, the small team has grown into a studio of several members that creates a wide range of virtual experiences, games, and XR content.
Congratulations to the team and best of luck with the release!
