CloserLook VR: Oldways

Project details match catalog

About

I am making a VR puzzle adventure game that captures the unique and hardly heard (especially in gaming) African story, Artefacts and culture told from the perspective of an African.

Impact

My project seeks to share African stories with the world, with the goal of integrating African culture and history into the global mainstream.

Progress

I have completed pre-production, and have started full development of the project. so far I have been able to complete a playable game demo which is currently in closed testing over discord.

Team

I have over 15 years experience working in the Digital Arts and Design sector. Having worked roles such as Non-linear Editor, Graphics Designer, Motion Designer, 3D Artist and recently transitioned to virtual reality games and app development.

Funding

No displayed figures preserved for this project.

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
