New Zealand-based Assembly put their budding Unreal Engine skills to test and built a virtual reality museum experience for the Oculus Rift.
If you have an Oculus DK2 kit handy and a Windows PC, you can download the demo from Assembly’s site. (No VR rig? The walkthrough video above will have to suffice.) In the full-blown VR version, the user can control and interact with the whale using keyboard commands.

Unreal 4, free for everyone
Unreal recently announced that Unreal Engine 4 is free for development purposes. You only pay a .5% royalty when you start to generate revenue.
