A couple of years ago Luden.io – previously called Nival VR – launched InMind VR for the Oculus Rift DK2. It then released a followup in the form of InMind 2 last year, but only for iOS and Android platforms using Google Cardboard. Now the studio has confirmed its expanding support by bringing the experience to HTC Vive and Oculus Rift this week.
InMind 2 is a life long adventure videogame which follows the story of a boy named John. Inspired by Disney/Pixar movie Inside Out, InMind 2 explores the chemistry governing human emotions, as players guide John through his life making decisions that will steer him to achieve certain goals and not others. These will come as key moments that’ll effect the path of the story, unlocking new interests and relations to help John grow and learn into and through adulthood. As in life John’s future isn’t fixed and players can choose to let him grow up to be an astronaut, a famous actor, an athlete, or any of the other possibilities available.
One of Luden.io’s earliest titles was InCell VR, a racing title inside the human brain. While now free the videogame was originally a paid for title. The studio has now confirmed to VRFocus that users who had paid for InCell VR will get InMind 2 for free, saying: “Also as we promised earlier everyone who bought InCell on Steam when it wasn’t free as now – will receive InMind 2 for free.”
InMind 2 is due to launch on 18th February, priced at $4.99 USD on Steam. For any further updates from the developer, keep reading VRFocus.
