This project is the very first VR game built from the ground up for hand tracking and Owlchemy’s first title to feature multiplayer. 

With Owlchemy’s VR interactions, players will jump into the world either by themselves or with friends and be greeted with quirky characters, rich interactivity, and a playfulness that has made Owlchemy games a VR must-play. For the first time players will finally be able to enjoy Owlchemy’s signature gameplay with their friends. 

“The first time we saw and used our own hands in VR we realized this is the future of the platform. Hand tracking lowers the barrier of entry into VR, making games more accessible and intuitive to more people. Playing games is much more fun when you’re using your actual body as the controller,” said Andrew Eiche, COOwl of Owlchemy Labs. “Ever since we launched Job Simulator, VR players have been requesting a multiplayer game from Owlchemy. Our next project lets friends enjoy the classic Owlchemy experience together, with hand tracking opening the door to a whole new world of VR interactions.”

“Hand tracking has provided an unprecedented level of communication between players. Bundle this new technology with players experiencing our quirky worlds with friends and you have all the ingredients for a magical VR experience,” Said Devon Reimer, CEOwl of Owlchemy Labs. “Since Cosmonious High’s launch, our studio has nearly tripled in size. Owlchemy values trying new things and our next project puts us in a position to push VR forward to new heights.” 

Owlchemy Labs already has experience developing hand tracking features having launched an update for Vacation Simulator. With their previous experience with hand tracking development and an expanded team of developers, Owlchemy Labs is uniquely fit to develop a game using the technology.

More information about Owlchemy’s unnamed project will be revealed in the coming months.
