Title: "Getting Up Close and Personal with Bigfoot in Virtual Reality" Hey Squatchable readers! We've stumbled upon an exciting new way to explore the world of Bigfoot - virtual reality! In a recent video by Alasquatch, game developers with a passion for Sasquatch have created an educational VR app that lets you stand next to a Bigfoot and truly understand their size. The developers, John Lind and Jack Tomatra, have spent two months developing this app using Unreal Engine and Meta's Quest 3 VR headset. Although they don't have any video to show yet, they plan to share it with museums and experiences. In the video, we see a Bigfoot model that's 8 feet tall, with relatively short hair compared to some eyewitness accounts. The developers mention that the male Sasquatch might have veins or tapes hanging off their shoulders and arms, while the females have shorter, more patchy fur. The app allows you to teleport to different areas and even turn 45 degrees by flicking a pad. The developers have also added various objects for scale, such as refrigerators, Volkswagens, and even a burned-out cabin. One of the most interesting aspects of this VR experience is the sense of scale it provides. You can actually teleport and stand right in front of the Bigfoot, giving you a sense of how tall they are compared to humans. The developers also mention that they've added footprints and even a Bigfoot on a loop to show that you can't make them move or interact with them. Although the texture of the Bigfoot model appears a bit CGI, the developers are open to feedback and suggestions for improvement. They've also added bird sounds and occasional knocks to make the experience more immersive. Overall, this VR app is a fascinating new way to explore the world of Bigfoot. It's a great opportunity for museums to offer a unique, educational experience for visitors. We can't wait to see more of this app and hopefully get a chance to try it out ourselves!
