Independent video game studio Nine Dots Studio are currently in the progress of running a Kickstarter campaign for their planned upcoming release of GoD Factory: Wingmen which with 28 days to go currently has $16,497 of a $70,000 target. To promote this title, their latest preview video focuses on their visions for Oculus Rift support – which one of the biggest success stories on Kickstarter to date is a virtual reality headset designed for hopefully immersive gaming.
GoD Factory: Wingmen is a multiplayer space combat sim where the player works with a team of up to three other players to destroy the opponent’s Carrier while defending their own. Before entering battle, players have the opportunity to construct and customize their own ships out of an enormous wealth of hulls, weapons, upgrades and components. Players will first have to choose a unique race, each of which focuses on a different play style and boasts a unique visual look. In the game, the players must destroy different key areas of the enemy Carrier to incapacitate it and ultimately destroy it.
They hope that the Oculus Rift support will provide the ultimate visual experience – allowing players to turn their heads for a full 360 degree view of the ship and surrounding space environment.

GoD Factory: Wingmen is a great fit for virtual reality. We’ve been waiting for this kind of technology for twenty years and we’ll get it very soon! We hope that we’ll be among the first games to support the Rift.
