❄️ Elevate your ice-sculpting skills to new heights and reach peak cozy by knitting mittens for a snowhuman!
❣️ Exist in a comfortable, all-inclusive VR experience— free of motion sickness AND seasickness!
Sea Your Personal Paradise: Come to glorious Vacation Beach to indulge in simulated sand and our painstakingly-researched rough approximations of human BEACH activities. Splash in the silicon sea and bask in simulated sunlight, all without getting sand in your… hands! Relax your CIRCUITS with a T-pose doing yoga, join in classic human sport, or visit the Dock Shop for the latest in leisurely avatar accessories.
Branch Out And Explore: Need a little more TREE in your life? Look no further than Vacation Forest! With over five unique trees copy-pasted across acres of artificial space, you’re sure to feel enveloped in the true sensation of NATURE. Discover the EMOTION of painting happy little trees, then share that EMOTION with Your Very Own Fish—and so much more! (*this simulation is not Actual Nature. Restrictions Apply.)
Elevate Your Vacation: Reach peak cozy atop the fabulous Vacation Mountain! Our premium lodge features HOT LIQUID, HOT TUB, and HOT AIR to help you recalibrate after a cold day in the snow. Whether crafting ice sculptures, chucking snowballs, or customizing your very own snowhuman, Vacation Mountain offers mostly authentic simulations of both cozy AND cold!
We strive to create interactions that feel natural, and we understand that not all players may be able to use two arms simultaneously. We now fully support one handed play for 100 percent of the game!
We love filling our worlds with humorous dialogue and text, and we want our players to not have to rely on speech or text to be able to enjoy the game. So, we’ve gone through the game and found places where we relied on text or speech as the only way to communicate critical gameplay information. We worked to modify those places to use icons and other visuals to better help all players understand the game.
Being completely immersed in VR is a truly magical experience, and we want all our players to feel comfortable while playing the game. We heard it can be uncomfortable for some if they have to turn all the way around to go backwards, so we worked to reduce this as much as possible.
