Go try the CloverPit demo. You'll be throwing coins you win from the slot machine at your PC trying to buy the full game!

It got negative reviews but I played through MindsEye over the past couple of days. It was not the best game I've ever played but the actors and their digital representations were good and I will enjoy exploring the sort of Las Vegas cityscape in free roam now that I've finished the game.

Hopefully you only sacrificed the less dominant arm and leg. (Wasn't that card sold for $3 million?)

Played the Donkey Kong Bananza demo at Nintendo SF today. It felt a lot like Mario Odyssey with some Minecraft elements sprinkled in. I look forward to playing the full game later this month.

For more than 5 years, I avoided this. I was less diligent with my masking this past week and here we are. Not in any way fun.

Did everyone check out the Meta booth at AWE? Two pair of Ray-Bans, a QR code and a framed printout. Very eye catching and clearly a high priority for a silver sponsor of the event to have an impactful presence on the show floor.

My time at AWE 2025 has just ended and I have lots of thoughts. This is the conference that brings the mind, body and heartbeat of the XR community together. I love seeing friends old and new and our shared continued excitement for this technology.

Horizon needs to be a place that attracts the best developers to build for it. Asked about IP ownership for creators. Creators own the worlds but Meta doesn't yet allow to import IP.

It sounds like Jason is a fantastic project manager. Stand up meetings, planning documents, durable design decisions.

When making Crash Bandicoot, how did the higher level vision get translated to more technically astute people? Crash was 8 people all working in the same room. A GTA or more recent Naughty Dog game couldn't be made in this way. You have to articulate your vision and also be deeply ingrained.

Meta having an open Metaverse, plans to migrate into or from other platforms? Within the next few years possibly. Today apps use Meta avatars in Unity. Jason wants Meta's stuff to be great before extending to other engines or pulling in from other engines.

Will Horizon allow creators to have video content in their worlds? Jason: That's a really good idea, so I hope so at some point.

As Meta gets more concurrent users, they are looking to better segment the users so that those who want to be away from kids or have other preferences. Described like putting more competitive skilled players together in Fortnite and not with casual or new players who would not have fun.

Discussing role play in virtual courthouses, bars, the enabling of interactions that are themed like the popular McDonalds parody world where people gravitate to being a fry cook.

Sonya loves to play Super Rumble. Jason likes that there could be infinite numbers of things to do whether games or sitting by a campfire telling stories or anything else. Now Meta are working to build AI tools to build the opportunities to be more social in VR.

For the first 8 years he stood up the Oculus publishing arm and content team. Now he spends most of his time talking with people about what they want to see in Horizon Worlds or VRChat or other social apps.

He tried a Valve demo and immediately knew this was something his child would be spending a significant amount of time using years down the line.

His first experience in VR was in Las Vegas in a CRT display powered suspended VR headset and it wasn't a great experience. Brendan Iribe invited him to Oculus and he dismissed it as being the same as his past experience but Irvine wasn't far.

He went from eating Ramen sharing a room with his business partner with no lightbulb in his room because it was too expensive to replace the halogen bulb to being a successful developer. He took the risk and it worked out. Taking a safe choice is a good option but he didn't want to be a lawyer.

Jason Rubin saw Star Wars in 1977 and as a seven year old immediately wanted a movie camera to make movies. A couple of years later he was introduced to computers and got an Apple II. When he was 15 he made a shareware game that sold thousands of copies and it was sold to Electronic Arts.

I got to try the TCL RayNeo X3 Pro and had a conversation in English with a gentleman speaking Portuguese and was able to understand almost all of the translation (XRAI misheard a description and called his son his daughter) but overall much more lightweight than X2 and great display quality.

I'm a big fan of the crazy worlds the artists at Meow Wolf transport visitors to and have been a Niantic app user since Field Trip, so this collaboration is like Peanut Butter and Jelly to me. Read Scott's article to learn where Niantic and Meow Wolf will blend realities first!

Juston back to share how easy it is to develop for Android XR. If you are already developing for Android, Unity or Open XR, you are already building to support Android XR. Says YouTube XR is so good.
