Published purpose

Rhythm games and combat shooters are both well-established in the VR space, but, no commercially successful title has yet merged these genres. This project facilitates the further development of our genre-busting VR game “Freakout” and advances D&D Skunkworks’ goal of building a strong, innovative IP portfolio thereby solidifying itself within the VR, LBE VR and VR training sectors. The addition of this unique gaming innovation, including the possibility of various AI non-player character (NPC) integrations, provides myriad opportunities for the company, both within multiple versions of the existing game, as a core vendor within the space and the ability to transfer the knowledge to our other platforms like Bridge VR Training.
