VR Sex Blog

No sooner was the Rift released than Sinful Robot was announced with great fanfare – but the projects biggest investor vanished a few months later, along with all their funding. Sinful Robot was not to be defeated though, and was reborn as Wicked Paradise.

Imagine playing Leisure Suit Larry but instead of watching a screen, you are inside the game.
Imagine the world and its inhabitants look highly realistic.
Imagine walking into a bar in Wicked Paradise, noticing a beautiful lady, talking to her, and seducing her.
Imagine playing your cards right and having passionate wild sex with her.

Imagine all this in high quality, immersive virtual reality.

Jeroen Van Den Bosch is the man behind the game, and has since been negotiating other avenues of funding. His team of 8 has experience with triple-A titles like Call of Duty, so could Wicked Paradise actually be the quality sex game we’ve all been waiting for?

The idea is to deliver VR sex “experiences” – initially from a heterosexual male point of view, but later they’re hoping to add LGBT experiences or some specifically for women. Details are scant – they’re currently using Unreal engine, though this could change. No word as yet on whether the game will interact with various sex toy peripherals.

Billed as the worlds first erotic virtual reality game, it’s a long way from release and anything could happen before then. Good luck to the team – I have high hopes for this becoming the platform of choice for VR “sexperiences”.

SomaVision are responsible for some of the shittiest looking web and PC sex games available, with graphics that look worse than the original Duke Nukem with the PlayBoy patch enabled (who didn’t have the PlayBoy patch?). A 3-day trial access to some of their wares will set you back no less than 15 shiny dollars.

To show how cool their as-yet untitled project is, they provided a picture of an Oculus Rift with some naked 3D models. Yes boys and girls – shit just got serious.

“This is the VR that we’ve been waiting for, and now it’s finally here. The leap in technology is tremendous and the ability to immerse the player into the virtual space is like nothing that we’ve seen before.

We’ve been making adult games for over 10 years. We have an experienced team that comes for professional game development and we’ve never been more excited to be on the cutting edge of adult entertainment.”

The development process is well under way, and to demonstrate this they’ve released an incredible demo of never-seen-before new character animation, which I hereby entitle “wibble wobble”. The entirely out-of-place static background is just the icing on the cake.

Forgive my skepticism – I really don’t mean to sound all cynical, but it seems like a non-existent project they just thought they’d announce in order to jump on the VR bandwagon and get a little press (says the guy who started a blog called vrsexblog.com). I especially enjoyed their third-person and riddled with errors blog post:

Virtual Sex gaming powerhouse Somavision today accounced…

Yep, they accounced that real good. Were we supposed to copy paste? And then there’s this little gem:

The company’s biggest announcement at the Somavision – attended GDC 2013 San Francisco event. The fact that one of hte premiere players in the adult game space created an instant buzz.

Verbatim from their own blog post. Perhaps if they spent a little more time learning English and a little less trying to model terrifyingly bad dance motions and big jubblies?

Until there’s something solid demoed and it isn’t a stupidly expensive monthly subscription, I don’t think there’s actually much to talk about here.
