Heads-off display: Oculus Rift experiment puts players in a




An Oculus Rift-enabled experiment to come out of the Exile Game Jam in Vallekilde, Denmark, puts players on the chopping block of a guillotine in a title dubbed Disunion.

Developed in two days by the warped and creative trio of Erkki Trummal, André Berlemont and Morten Burnjberg, Disunion's effect is further amplified by a well-timed strike to the player's neck as the guillotine performs its duty. Mean, but hilarious shenanigans ensue!

Disunion is available for download to those with Oculus Rift units, but note that hitting yourself in the back of the head as the blade touches down will not provide the same effect. It's just weird.

  • I actually thought about making a guillotine simulation for the Oculus (one of many morbid ideas I have). A pendulum (Edgar Allen Poe style) would also be interesting.

    but seriously for the love of the PR gods don't post a video of your 9 year old kid playing with this...
