Dutch developer Pillow’s Willow VR Studios released its first virtual reality (VR) title Spark of Light on Samsung Gear VR a couple of months ago and now the title has been brought to another platform, Google Daydream.
Set in a fantasy fairy tale realm of Mothlings, giants and other magical creatures, Spark of Light is the story of Nerow a young lad who needs to save the world from darkness. The greedy Moth King has stolen the sun, so it’s up to Nerow to track him down and restore the sun to its rightful place in the sky.
To do this players must solve the various environmental puzzles that stand in their way, collect the hidden light sources that’ll aid their quest whilst avoiding mothling guards and other hazards on route.
“Our ‘DreamLight’ system illuminates the game in a unique way,” said Pillow’s Willow VR Studios’ CEO Andy Lürling in a statement. “The reviews are very positive and we notice with the Oculus Gear VR version -released last August- that we reach a wide audience from young to old, both men and women, which was one of our objectives. All in all we are very satisfied”.
VRFocus reviewed Spark of Light, finding it to be ‘a wonderful fantasy escape for all the family’, giving it four stars.
Now that the Daydream version has been released the next step is a PC version which Pillow’s Willow VR Studios has already confirmed is in the works.
