As part of a rescue team, you're sent in space to investigate the disappearance of a spaceship called Eclipse.
Eclipse is an immersive “hyper reality” collaborative experience, a glimpse of tomorrow's cinema.
Contrary to most VR experiences dedicated to Entertainment, Eclipse is not based on shooting.
It's a 4 players Sci-Fi interactive short movie that lasts around 40 minutes, enhanced by physical effects, full body awareness and total freedom of movements.
Based on Escape Game mechanics (People will have to solve enigmas and make actions to go through the story) and taking part of what VR best offers in term of immersion.
