- VAIL VR Coming Soon on Steam - 16 June 2020
These years after releasing Water Planet game we've been back in the studio working on VAIL VR. In the near future, on a blighted Earth, the claim to the human legacy is diverging. With the world in flux, many have chosen to move to the orbiting Colony which serves as a springboard for the next phase of life. Conglomerate REYAB asserts the rights to what's left behind, and aims to protect and maintain their holdings. From time to time, Colonists are deployed back to Earth to digitize artifacts and heritage sites under REYAB protection. Armed with dissent, what matters most begins to blur . . .

- New Update Now Live! - 1 December 2017
Hi all, there is now a fresh update for Water Planet addressing requests and reports: Update Changelist: Fixed a difficult to reproduce issue where checkpoint recall could act unreliably for some users. Upgraded game engine to a more performant build, this was done to offer better performance in the prospective Mac release but will benefit all platforms! Other minor performance optimizations New feature: Whalie can now be picked up in Desktop mode, making it much easier to free him. ːwhalieː Also worth re-mentioning: The last update brought the Checkpoint System! This was by far the most requested feature to date. Minor feature to arrive in next update: An option that will allow strafing with the Vive via a launch parameter (-vivestrafeon) which will could be helpful for those using VR treadmills and other accessibility devices. Please note that the Gamepad (i.g. XBox Controller) works…

- Water Planet involves a cybernetic jellyfish! - 1 August 2017
I am a big fan of water and water effects in games (which is why I was so happy to see Pippin Barr’s water museum earlier this year). That’s why I’m surprised I haven’t looked into Water Planet before now. I’m watching a dev log video and the phrase “cybernetic jellyfish” has been used already! Water Planet sounds like it’s a game that’s maybe also a music video set.
