Art like never before. The Kremer Museum is an innovative new museum concept that combines the newest VR technology with world-class Old Master paintings. The museum includes pieces by Rembrandt, Aelbert Cuyp, Frans Hals and many more Old Masters from the Dutch Golden Age.

Available on Viveport: https://vprt.co/kremercollection

Walk around a fantastic new space, where the balance between traditional museums and VR is represented through a new sort of architecture. Be sure to check out Rembrandt’s “old man with a turban”, walk through it, and see the original back of the panel, to explore the work’s unique stamps of provenance.

Designed by architect Johan van Lierop, Founder of Architales and developed by MOYOSA MEDIA from the Netherlands, the museum features 74 Dutch and Flemish Old Master paintings from the Dutch Golden Age, and is accessible exclusively through VR.

History and future of the power of art combined. Get up close and personal with the paintings, examine brushwork and colors in great detail, and listen to George & Ilone Kremer - the founders of the collection - explain what is special about each painting.

George Kremer: “Our journey as collectors has always been about finding the highest quality artworks and simultaneously finding ways to share them with as many people as possible. My wife Ilone and I believe we can make a greater contribution to the art world by investing in technology rather than in bricks and mortar for our collection.”

“First there were museums, then private museums and now virtual reality privately owned museums are entering the scene” Melanie Gerlis, Financial Times

“Virtual Reality Museum Puts Rembrandt in High-Def” - Molly Schuetz, Bloomberg -

“The Newest Home for Rembrandt and the Dutch Masters Is Gorgeous Outer-Space Museum” - Brian Boucher, artnet

“At the new Kremer Museum, the lighting is perfectly optimized to accentuate the colors, brushstrokes, and details in each painting” - Sarah Burke Artsy

“By far the best VR experience I’ve seen so far” - Nikolaus Weil, Entrepreneur (Mindex, SingularityU Germany) & Film Producer - Earth and Deep Blue

It takes classic components of a great game—such as compelling characters, gripping combat, and captivating world exploration—and combines them with the exciting opportunities of virtual reality. Available on Viveport: https://vprt.co/moss

In Moss, players meet Quill, a young mouse with dreams of greatness beyond the confines of her settlement. While exploring the woods, she finds a mysterious Glass Relic and an ancient magic is awakened. With her uncle now in grave danger, Quill must embark on an epic journey—and she needs you there by her side.

Blast giant asteroids into rubble and power-up your weapons and energy with collectible bonuses as you battle flying saucers in the clouds of rocky debris. Boost your score and firepower with every gem and gadget you catch, but watch your thruster, shield and laser energy!

Bringing back the casual feel of a video arcade classic, a game of Asteroid Blaster VR can deliver a quick "shoot 'em up" break or a marathon competition to beat the latest high score.

Friendly for lefties, you can set your rocket thrust, laser pointer and status screen on the controller arms you prefer, and an in-game tutorial will give everything you need to start blasting your way through over a dozen different scenes.

Fly around, shoot stuff and have fun with Asteroid Blaster VR!

Arcade Mode:

In addition to progressing through different asteroid waves and scenes, Asteroid Blaster VR can also be started in 'Arcade Mode'.

Arcade Mode sets the player in a slow-paced game environment which grows progressively more difficult as time passes. If you want to let your friends jump right in to virtual reality and start blasting without going through a tutorial first, Arcade Mode is for you!

Two paths are available for starting your Asteroid Blaster VR game in Arcade Mode:

Open your Start On Wave screen and select wave "00 - Arcade Mode".

OR

Open your Options screen and toggle the Start in Arcade Mode option on. That will set your main menu Start button to launch your game in Arcade Mode (rather than on Wave 1).
