Unbinary is a VR hand-painted puzzle adventure that will immerse you in unusual behavior experiments, designed by a dubious super-AI willing to figure out what empathy means.

Unbinary is a VR hand-painted puzzle adventure that will immerse you in an unusual moment in human history.

Webby, the super AI that was elected to rule planet Earth, needs to be audited, and it is your role to assure she is ready for her duty.

Set in an unusual moment in future human history, Webby - a super A.I. - was elected to rule the world and needs to be audited before becoming sovereign. But is it ready? Your role is to ensure so. Once into Webby’s simulations, you’re part of physical, logical, and psychological challenges that will generate the data necessary to validate the super AI’s capabilities to rule the world.

Unbinary will be released through Steam Early Access on March 26th, 2021 for $19.99 with 30% off ($13.99) on Early Access.

"The biases of society are everywhere. We tried to imagine how would it be a world as seen by a super AI modeled after all these biased datasets. What could happen there? We didn’t spare acid humor and a comic book art style, hand-drawn inside VR,  to immerse players in this dystopic story. We want people to get first-person into Webby’s visions of the world, embarking into an adventure spiced with full-body gameplay, Quill-made art style, and revelations that will tease your thoughts.", said Egon Ribeiro of Ludact. “Right now we’re going Early Access to get closer to our community and collect feedback that will be invaluable for our team to move forward with the game”.

At early access, players will be able to use two different masks, figuring out how the AI models of the sarcastic Webby will handle them. Each mask has different abilities and will cause different reactions from the environment.

Key Features

  • 100% hand-painted inside VR with Oculus Quill, enabling a futuristic, comic-book-inspired dystopic universe.
  • Impactful narrative develops as you get deeper into Webby, the sarcastic super A.I. who is way too sure about who she is.
  • 7 physics-enabled interactive levels allow you to dive into the mysterious Webby and realize the world is in some serious trouble.
  • How you look changes how the world reacts: 3 different embodiments offer varied physical interactions in VR.

Currently Unbinary will only be available on Steam Early Access, but the full launch is slated to support Oculus Quest and Playstation VR as well.
