May I suggest letting players keep some of the puzzle elements after they've been used? I found the tickle gun and the laser puzzle extremely helpful for visualizing the space I was in and it's a shame you have to lose them!

I felt sick playing Hyperbolica the other day... and it wasn't even in VR! These things mess with my mind. But it's so fun!

I can't give you enough praise for releasing the source code of the engine. Once things like bump maps and more complex movement are put into the mix by other creators, there's no telling what kind of wacky and cool-looking non-Euclidean games will come out of it.

The game was honestly one of the best gaming experiences I've had in a while. I mean the dialogue and story are solid, but the experience of walking through a world that is so fundamentally different from anything I have ever seen is just amazing. No game has ever managed to disorient me in such a enjoyable way. Having followed these devlogs has definitely helped me appreciate many of the smaller things. I probably won't be replaying it a ton, but whenever i have a guest over, you can be pretty certain i'll at least bring it up.

Do you think you'll try it in VR someday?

Hyperbolica is easily my favorite game of at least the season, if not the year! It has introduced me into the whole hyperbolic games genre, and even inspired me to make one myself! Keep up the good work, and hopefully more fun projects and updates will come in the future! Oh also, I am so glad to be part of the translation team :D I promise I will do my best !

It's been absolutely incredible watching the progress with this game and finally being able to play it. Really enjoying it, and you truly are breaking some revolutionary ground with this engine. Fantastic work, and looking forward to what your future projects entail.

I really do appreciate the wmr support. I know our headsets are less than 1% of the market share but there are people still out there using them and appreciating them who love to see support in a game. Also really loved the game as whole.

For the Quest standalone release, to help with motion sickness, I’d love either of these: - Teleportation option - Flatscreen mode, like Minecraft VR’s “virtual living room” toggle, so we can pop in and out of VR during a playthrough

This absolute madlad really just open sourced the the backend of this game he's spent years developing. Why can't big companies do stuff like this.

I was just checking your other videos an hour ago to see if there were any updates. To my surprise, its funny and incredible to see "uploaded 42 seconds ago" on my main youtube page after checking earlier today. I am incredibly happy you've decided to upload the source code to this "hyperbolic engine"! It's something I'd really hope you'd do. Sincerely, someone who 100%'d hyperbolica in the first day :)

Hyperbolica is one of my favorite games of all time, I can't wait to see what else you've got in store

Oh nice, MIT licensing for HyperEngine! I'm looking forward to seeing what sorts of games get built with it. Hyperbolica itself was a great tech demo of what hyperbolic geometry could do for a game, but the gameplay itself felt a bit thin to me.

A native oculus app is a great way to expand the amount of people that can access the game on vr.

What a great way to cause madness, this will be a lovecraftian experience in the most intuitive way possible

Bought the game, after saw that you share the source code of your Unity Engine Improvement. I will not use it (do not like unity), but still appreciate your effort, your modern way of thinking and contribution to the community! Thank You, and Good luck in future projects!

mit license, so shoehorn the code into your favorite engine lol

Making the engine code freely available is a massive bro move - can’t wait to play the game once I find the time!

I really liked this game, I love games that allow people to really get a gut feeling for alternative geometries. One thing that I think it missed out on was that the spaces were all finite and fairly small, which is a shame since you never really get an opportunity to get lost in a mind-bendingly small space. This is something I think hyper-rogue did fantastically, although it really leans into this with all the procedural generation which is likely necessary to make this feasible. One puzzle from that game that really affected me: find the mcguffin at the center of a circle whose diameter is about 4-5 times the view distance. There is nothing else in the circle besides a ground tiling. So simple, yet so hard!

This game is amazing, and that is no hyperbole!

No one ever ports games to mac and i'm so excited you're doing this for the like 4 people that'll take advantage of it

Wow, that’s amazing you’re sharing your non-euclidean code. Thats great.

I loved Hyperbolica! I'm so glad I was subbed when you started the project and got to see all your progress leading to the release. Great Job!

It's so awesome watching this grow from concepts, papers, and research into a fully fledged tangible game that anyone can interact with. Excited to see more!

When I came back to Hyperbolica after a few days I completely forgot what I was supposed to do - I was running around quite a bit until I found my thread again. Maybe some kind of quest log book could be useful - a list for all your current goals and jobs. You really did a great job on the project as a whole. People can extend on the idea - you shared your source and you're allowing people to play with it - you offer the game on steam AND DRM-free - you even offer your Soundtrack via band camp. Not to mention the bugfixes, VR improvements and all the love you're putting into it. Very well done! Big Kudos!

CodeParade you are one of my heroes! I admire how you persevered through this project while juggling the duties of family life at the same time. Seriously, man, I have drawn inspiration from you.

OMG I love all your videos, thanks for inspire us!

You're doing such a great job with the game, keep up the awesome work dude! Super excited to see what you come up with in the future!

I'm so excited for a native Oculus Quest release! I will definitely be buying again when that comes out!

thank you! really great job. I enjoyed all of you're math puns :)

Nice, I haven't played Hyperbolica on VR yet but it's good to know it won't be janky if I will.

Thanks you SOOOOO much for releasing the backend! I've been in Unity development for about 7 years now and really looking forward to 'dicking-around' with this!

I'm so very happy that your hard work, and determination to see it through, has paid off. Good job! Keep up the good work! "Remember to keep your stick on the ice." -The Red Green Show, circa. 2000's

alright, time to get hyperbolica! thanks so much for vr support, wouldn't have gotten it without it

This is really awesome, thanks, dude!

The best game I have ever played. Thanks!

Thank you so much for adding smooth turn

Bought the game, played it and instantly got bored with all the dialogs and nothing cool to do, so I uninstalled BUT I still appreciate that you've made the game, provided us with all the vlog updates and I am super amazed that you've decided to release the source code under a MIT license. Even though I did not like the game I would buy it a second time just to support you as an awesome developer you are. I am super excited about your other projects. Keep it up!

Love it you open-source this stuff 👌 props

This makes me hyper, bolica!

I finally finished it! It’s such a great game. I also tried marble marcher back when it came out a few years ago and I just have to say, you are a great game dev

Kudos for releasing engine in public. Hopefully someone with good ideas will use it for some actually playable game :P

Been following the development since you started playing with non euclidean space, you've done an amazing job!

What an amazing first game! I can't wait to see what you bring next!

Wow, huge respect for making it opensource! I liked Marble Marcher community edition very much, hope hyperbolica will also get some cool improvements

I'm glad the feedback for this game has been so positive for you. It's quite the accomplishment! I look forward to any content updates in the future!

I'm glad to see things are going so well for you and Hyperbolica! The Q&A we did is one of my favorites!

I can’t wait for the Mac port! The game looks really fun!

Thanks for open sourcing the engine!

Seen some good videos about the game. All that hard work paid off.

Can't wait to try this in VR!!! Add some coop objectives, and it would be a game changer!

Thanks, I would say that the unfamiliar geometry, the frustration of getting lost, and the cramped feeling of a hot headset make for a nausea inducing experience. That said, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I could go a few hours before really needing to take a break. Great game

Truly a fantastic game to play. If you're reading this comment and you haven't bought and played it yet, what are you waiting for? It's something you can't really get the full, mind-crumping experience of without playing it yourself.

holy shit take a break when you need to the output is unreal (edit: love ur content no matter how long it takes to make)

i cant wait to try this game in vr

Love it. Keep it comin'.

I really liked the concept and execution. Unfortunately I could not play it for more than a few minutes before the nausea hit hard.

Amazing ❤️

01:53 Very good, keep it up

Awesome

best game this year by far

It was such a fun game. You should definitely take a break but it needs some fixing---I had a few glitches, for example the cafe rollerskate minigame bugs out sometimes and the target will jump from one area to another, and the ending sequence was really confusing because all the wrong people were talking at me from behind other people and whatever. I think after some bugfixes and maybe some final adjustments this game would be really fun to try and do speedruns of? The cafe minigame is my favourite, I kept getting close to sub-1 minute but not quite making it. One day, when my throws are on point, maybe...

I was waiting to complete the desktop mode before trying vr, but now i cant wait Also, great job with the game, i was expecting something completely different from anything that i had played before, and it didnt dissapointed me, easily the most innovative experience made into a game, the only thing in the same level is a demo from the MIT called "A slower speed of light" that explores the relativistic effects of traveling close to the speed of light in the most acurrate way possible, so it also distorts de space, distances and size. Very recommended to the type of audience that like hyperbolica

Just got the game, it's epic

Dude made a hyperbolic engine backend for his first released full-game... Talk about setting the bar high.
