A Chair in a Room Greenwater

 
TerrorBytes: The Evolution of Horror GamingFeb 29, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHey, it's been a long time. We're very excited to be featured in "The ultimate exploration and celebration of horror in video games." I will be talking about the inception of VR horror, the creation of A Chair in a Room, what I had to consider when Writing The Exorcist: Legion VR and working with highly esteemed (and Oscar winning) licenced IP. It's shaping up to be "Five 60-minute episodes plus 15+ hours of online events, including Q&As with the biggest names in horror gaming." It's genuinely an exciting project to be involved with and we're really looking forward to being able to watch it - except cringing at the bits that I open my mouth!

I spent about 3 hours tip-toeing my way through the story and still get goosebumps when I think about the things I saw on my adventure. " - UploadVR "...this is a genuinely horrifying but encapsulating game. I’ve never wanted to push through a game that I simultaneously wanted to wimp out of at the same time, but that’s what is so brilliant about A Chair in a Room: Greenwater." - Game Pitt "I don't normally write reviews, but this game deserves a huge thumbs up. Wow. Just wow." - winglessraven https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/12000741/b7885e1fbbd84bc8307a0cd80dec544e5b17cbe5.jpgGreenwater Remastered is LIVEOct 26, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsWe've remastered the whole game in time for some Halloween fear and it is available as now as a free update! "It's time to take your medication." https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/12000741/2b96ebb99ee3827f87653a9bedb82a453db1b8b3.png Here's what to expect: Added free move to the locomotion options along with crouch and free rotation to accompany teleport and the original ‘flexible room scale’ locomotion option Flexible room scale is now available on Oculus so if you have 3 cameras and 2.5m x 2.5m area you can play the whole game at 1:1 scale without additional locomotion required Completely reworked physics and interactions Improved artwork, updated textures and added post processing Remastered soundtrack Improved SFX and a new audio engine Additional cues and clues to help with guide through the puzzles and story Huge optimisations for smoother gameplay and faster loading Added achievements Cloud saves Bug fixes and planned post launch support Remaster coming for HalloweenOct 16, 2018 - Community Announcementshttps://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/12000741/a9c8f45cbe605f5d52114fa8c12b8d3bd2d9ccce.png We’ve been busy on The Exorcist: Legion VR but we have been listening and we thought it was about time to give “Chair” a real update. Here’s a run down of what is to come: Completely reworked physics and interactions Added free move to the locomotion options along with crouch and free rotation to accompany teleport and the original ‘flexible room scale’ locomotion option Flexible room scale is now available on Oculus so if you have 3 cameras and 2.5m x 2.5m area you can play the whole game at 1:1 scale without additional locomotion required Improved artwork, updated textures and added post processing Remastered soundtrack Improved SFX and a new audio engine Additional cues and clues to help with guide through the puzzles and story Huge optimisations for smoother gameplay and faster loading Added achievements Cloud saves Bug fixes and planned post launch support The biggest update is that we have implemented our ‘Burrito’ interaction system which we built just before starting The Exorcist: Legion VR and implemented into the same game. This means that we now have excellent physics handling and objects interact with each other in a more natural way. It is something that people commented on at the time of creating A Chair in a Room but W&W was just me at that point, the headset was still a prototype and things like VRTK just didn’t exist so I had to workout how I thought vr interactions would work, so it feels good to revisit with the benefit of hindsight and make it much better. We’ve made a huge amount of optimisations which have allowed us to add in new post effects and some higher poly art where we thought it would benefit the scene, for example we completely rebuilt the lodge in chapter 2 to make it just that bit creepier. The music and audio was a passion project for us, adding live instruments into the mix has brought out a visceral edge to some of the pieces, making the whole scene feel a little more on edge. We’ve made numerous subtle changes but that’s what Chair is all about, it is the overall feeling that we’ve tried to enhance and I think that’s why we’ve worked on so many aspects of the game, VR immerses all of your senses so we’ve put extra work into how it looks, feels and sounds to make a better experience. The remastered version will be out very soon and will be given as a free update to people who already it on Steam. Thanks for the support and patience, RyanMore horror!

The original “A Chair in a Room” was made over 2 years ago for Oculus DK1 and Google Cardboard to test the potential of horror in VR. It was the great reaction to this that led to the creation of the full length game “A Chair in a Room: Greenwater”. In addition to the new story some additional improvements have been made based on community feedback: Hard reset to Locomotion (if you accidentally switch off locomotion and can’t reach the options clipboard to reset) Left Ctrl + Left Shift + L Added “Enhance VO” to the options This will reduce the volume of all other sound channels to lift the VO channel. In addition I’ve added a normalise volume of 1.25x to increase overall sound levels across the game. Increased the final trigger size and position in the Swamp boat ride to help make the final reveal easier to trigger.
