Game Director and company Swiss Army Knife at Curvature Games My opinions are my own unless mind control was involved.
So much work from @benficalis.bsky.social and our team at @curvaturegames.bsky.social bringing this to life over countless iterations. "Yoyoable" is now a commonly used word by the team ❤️🪀
Who would have thought your childhood toy could come in handy while walking* around the park? 🪀🎡
With this trusty tool, no hidden corner is safe from you!
*literally, we use redirected walking in our VR game 😉

Interacting with the scenery is a core part of The Amusement.
As she inspects this abandoned amusement park, Samantha will have to manipulate all kinds of objects and mechanisms: a postcard, a yo-yo, pipes, rails…
In short, the park reveals itself to the curious ones!

At the end of the maze, you stumble upon the old booth. The desk looks as if no time has passed. Your dad’s photo, the tickets, even the yo-yo you loved as a child, everything looks the same 🖼️🪀
But maybe a second look wouldn’t hurt. What would you check first? 🤔

I love seeing BTS like this bc it comes from a piece of art where you're like "How did he do that??" to watching carefully over the process and going "Ooooooh, so that's how he did that" and unlocking some new knowledge for yourself that makes art seem less impossible
