Hands-On: VR Minigolf on the HTC Vive Pre

Virtual reality can take simple activities like miniature golf and put them in fantastic environments. We try Cloudlands: VR Minigolf at the recent SteamVR Developer Showcase and learn how replicating the feel of accurately putting a golf ball is surprisingly complicated.

Thanks for watching!

I saw Hover Junkies in the intro! SHOUT OUT TO +NODE!

This looks like a lot of fun! With online multiplayer, I could definitely see myself playing this for long periods of time.

It seems that these developers are trained to say that every single question asked is "great".

Wow Justin's voice, perfectly radio-like.

[grizzlycougar]

This is pretty sick, makes we want VR now

[Nightenstaff]

An editor seems like a must. Include the assets from any DLC purchased to the editor as well to help increase DLC sales.

Your audio guys really love their compression, huh? :P
What happened to more of the personal impressions at the end of your videos? I'm really missing those.

[NikoKun]

Should have asked him if they have plans to add Oculus Rift + Touch support later down the line. I'd love to play this game with Touch.

When VR streaming happens, this game could be huge! I mean, everybody likes a bit of minigolf, right? Much like fifa and Hearthstone, this game has a huge potential for spectating.

[RayRift]

Will it eventually be available for Oculus? I've been waiting for this type of thing for a few years. I NEED that course editor to simulate a REAL minigolf course in Saint Paul Minnesota. Can Can Wonderland VR!

[Demoniiiic]

Looks great. Will purchase for sure. Im assuming less then 20 bucks.

[EVPointMaster]

I think something like this would also work really well for mobile HMD, so multiple people could use a Gear VR each and have local multiplayer that way.

A future where everyone is playing VR putt-putt with minimalist overtones. Someone grab the vaporwave!

[quidprobro]

These controllers would benefit immensely from force feedback

[Frrk]

Should be fun in online multiplayer! You would need friends who have a headset too. Well or maybe you can play with random people online.

[CybrStreakr]

mini golf world championships, here we come

[chronnotrigg]

Does holding the controller upside down cause line of sight issues with the lighthouses? The light houses are going to be up high and the sensors are going to be on the now bottom of the controller.

[CODxCAMPERx]

They really should open up level design. let anyone one build them.

[DeathBringer]

7:32 That noise... the more I listen to it the weirder it sounds.

@No Anime No Life They bring in the walls in game so your specially aware of where you are.
