Back in August VRFocus reported on Kite & Lightning resurrecting its virtual reality (VR) mini opera Senza Peso for current head-mounted displays (HMD). Today the experience has gone live on Steam with support for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift.
Originally debuting back in 2014 on the Oculus Rift Development Kit 1 (DK1), Senza Peso is described: “As a soul transitioning into the afterlife, Senza Peso shepherds you on a spiritual journey through a beautiful and foreboding dark world of lost souls and redemption.”
The experience was a VR adaption of a short film by Cory Strassburger & Alain Vasquez – Strassburger co-founded Kite & Lightning with Ikrima Elhassan – in which viewers become the protagonist and personally experience the metamorphosis from death to eternity.
Kite & Lightning is currently working on multiplayer brawler Bebylon: Battle Royale, which involves babies remote-controlling a vehicle-mounted baby in an arena of death. These vehicles are armed with giant fists which can punch and slap opponents along with other offensive weaponry.
Senza Peso can be downloaded now for free, and for all the latest Kite & Lightning news keep reading VRFocus.
