Miksi Early Access?

We'd like to release as early access to hear your opinion on comfort, ease of use, learning process, educational content and progression of dance moves. Body movement learning is a difficult concept in VR and we could use your help to refine the process!

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Bachata Virtual will be in early access for about 3-5 months to allow for proper feedback and implementing appropriate changes.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

The full version will include more interactions with virtual students for practicing moves, haptic feedback on the controllers, and refined animations and educational materials. We're also planning support for Windows Mixed Reality headsets.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

It supports HTC Vive and Oculus Rift + Touch, and has the dance lesson animation content, audio and controls complete.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

We've set the main basic movements and patterns for bachata in the dance lessons for this current price. However if there's a large demand for more content on the basic lessons we would raise the price gradually to accommodate for further motion capture, teacher salaries, and post processing refinement for VR.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We've seen and played dance games in the past were you might end up with memorized knowledge of a choreography, but nothing you can use in the real world and in real situations. We would like to achieve the opposite, and teach dancing for the real world using virtual tools. We have great teachers, but none of them learned in a virtual environment, so with the help of the community we can explore this new medium and make it effective for everyone.
