Llamasoft at Play Expo 2016 8-9 October

[gilesgoat]

Hi everybody (*),

so "fingers crossed" because YES all SHOULD be "in place" but "heck knows what's going on is more than 1 week I am trying to get in touch with Play Expo getting no replies" Llamasoft will ( should ) be at Play Expo 8-9th October 2016 .

What makes this "particularly important" is that we will, finally, REVEAL THE "Big Thing" so if you are wondering what's Llamasoft been doing all this time yes it's a PSVR title for PS4, yes there is ( not fully completed ) a PC version too, YES the title works with OR WITHOUT VR so it's playable "in all modes".

Of course "it's best in VR" but it's fully playable in "standard 2D" as well

For the moment, "to prove yes we truly are working on that too", we will - hopefully - show a semi working version on CV1 ( IF WE MANAGE TO FINALLY PURCHASE ONE FROM OR !!! ) and a working version on PSVR.

At the moment I am more battling with "bureaucratic issues" more than code issues but there you go.

So if you can be there and want to see with your own eyes what is finally all this about don't miss Play Expo

Meanwhile I hope someone will start replying to emails and/or I'll finally find a person not an answering machine.

But yeah "the big thing" will be revealed first time in there so you'll be the first ones seeing it.

Seeyou there

Exciting. Good luck!

For those who don't know (I didn't and just looked it up), Play Expro is in Manchester. Which is a shame as I'll be in London around that time and might actually have been able to go had it been there...

Is there any possibility of some teaser vid for us not lucky to be in my old rainy home town of Manc for the Expo ?

Sorry NO, NOT before that date, we can't even tell you what it is

After that date YES, before NO .

I'll be there. Not promising my lad will cosplay as T2K this year though.

Just leave your lad do whatever he feels to do, and don't make him miss to try "our new thing"

[gilesgoat]

I can finally confirm that after various phone calls, lots of emails, many support tickets, a too-many-number-of-forms and 'strange procedures' and such yesterday around 20.30 we managed to submit the "final demo product" for "VR Consultation" so fingers crossed in a matter of some days we should get the "feedback and authorization" to display "the big thing"

Meanwhile after more of the things above I can finally confirm/be sure that "yes we do have a ( quite interesting ) stand at Play Expo Manchester" and we should also have "various other things" that are been prepared to "decorate" it and "something" for all the lucky people that will be able to come there and see/play "the thing"

Hopefully there will be a CV1 version working ( or semi working ) in display as well as a "proof of concept" that yes there is/will be a PC version too and it's going to support PC VR too ( for the moment Oculus, maybe later other stuff too ).

Here at "LS quarters" we are now "in the final stretch of working 7/7" to prepare all this stuff for the exhibition, the plan is to have probably 3 demoing "positions" (i.e. 2 PSVR and 1 CV1 ) and maybe something else and "whatever left we'll fill the gaps with things"

There's the possibility we may have a few other "funky things" to show.

Seeya there.

P.S. sorry, that place is "a bit screened" for wifi/reception and to have a ( probably quite badly ) working internet connection is "asking too much", we will TRY - waves permitting - to broadcast some Periscope but NOTHING is guaranteed it will work.

[Whiteball]

Damn! Why am I always tied up with something I can't avoid when these things come around.

Really hyped to see at some point (hopefully) in the not too distant future what this new thing is.
VR is in desperate need of some good content and you're the guys to do it

Good luck, hope everything runs smooth and goes well...

Looking forward to seeing some of your new stuff at Play Expo this coming weekend.

I don't post on here so regularly now but I still lurk from time to time.

Out of interest are any other forum members in attendance? Could be time for a long overdue catch up.

[gribbles]

I should be there...

[Kamineko]

If you see this very colourful fellow hanging around at Play Expo, that'll be me.

At least make an effort. No one will notice you in that get up!

My good clothes are in the wash

[venusian]

You should deffo be showing off the vector console, the name of which is currently escaping me.

[_TinOmen_]

That is great news!

Can't be at the event, but will instead very much look forward to the reveal of the project.

Here at "LS quarters" we are now "in the final stretch of working 7/7"

What, you are working 7 hours a day now? Is that the Llamasoft version of "crunch"
