    Hello there everyone!

    We would like to add a "little" application that we are working on. It is still a proof of concept, but the concept is really revolutionary!



    Zip-line over Times Square (with Oculus)


    A mobile version demo on an Android device:


    A virtual tour or a real-estate property (with Oculus)


    And finally a parachute jump off a tall building in Times Square (with Oculus)



    What we are proposing is a leap of faith and knowledge, something unheard of and as bold as the human mind can be.
    We’re developing the first 3D Virtual Reality for you to explore freely from the comfort of your home, cost-free. We`re creating the most advanced content sharing platform yet, something that will make words like teleportation or virtual immortality seem less unlikely.

    And it’s all possible now!
    The technology needed to make all this possible is already here. Some is in development and will soon be launched. You will soon be able to interact with your friends in a 3D copy of your city.
    TimeWalk will also offer the option of virtual immortality within ethical boundaries.The platform will allow you to seamlessly record your thoughts, ideas or even your behavior so they can be accessed by generations to follow.

    You can check it out at http://timewalk.tw. You need to register (http://timewalk.tw/early_access/register.html), then head to the downloads section and download a version suitable to your OS.

    Currently, we have a web-based version, a desktop version (with partial support for Rift DK1 - press O while in game), and an Oculus version (that does not feature a Character Customization). We are yet to fully implement a UI that works well with Oculus, so we encourage you to first try out a desktop version to familiarize yourselves with the controls, environment, etc, then try out the Oculus version.

    We have a developers' blog there as well, http://timewalk.tw/blog/

    Please let us know what you think or our "little" app, give us feedback and suggestions. We will try to keep this post updates, but we would prefer if you subscribed to our other channels for timely updates.

    Many thanks!
    Johnny
