Crocodiles have moved into Ocean Rift’s mixed reality aquarium! 🐊🐊🐊 They come in different sizes, colours, and temperaments. It doesn't come across on video but they look HUGE in mixed reality. I've spent hours feeding them it's quite relaxing!

How would #Portal in #MixedReality look like? I've always been a big fan of @valvesoftware Portal games, so I couldn't resist making a demo experiment with @Meta #Quest3 Developed with #Unity, #XR Interaction Toolkit @Mixamo, @getvolu #TheCakeIsALie #AR

Here's a sneak peek at @crashlandvr's first underwater mission "Shallow Grave". Featuring Leeches and Skulkers, which cloak and blind you with ink. Feels very claustrophobic, tense and full of jump scares! WIP

So excited to share my latest work! If you’ve wanted to create custom gestures for your AR/VR projects and wished it was easier, try Unity's XR Hands 1.4 package. Create your own gestures from scratch or use our pre-built gestures with a handy little debugging tool!

Here's a great white shark from Ocean Rift's mixed reality aquarium. I can spend hours feeding her like this! Like all mixed reality, the majesty doesn't quite come across in video, but it is pretty awe inspiring in the headset - Meta Quest Pro in this case.

Gave Ocean Rift's MR update a shot and spent way longer than I'd thought in my own room aquarium. With a comfortable head strap, it'd also be a great setting to fall asleep to! (Except maybe the shark one, heh) 🦈
