Snowy Birds is a VR-based video game, using Oculus Rift and Leap Motion tech for the ultimate snowball-fighting experience against the nasty birds. Gamedev in progress...

We are a team of VR enthusiasts participating in a hackathlon Garage 48 (garage48.org). In 48 hours we are about to deliver a web-based snowball fighting game that uses the best of Oculus Rift and Leap Motion technologies. You don鈥檛 need to annoy your friends anymore to have a snowball fight. Just get our game and have a fight against the nasty birds!

Too bad oculus rift+leap motion are too expensive for me :(

I'd totally play it if i had the hardware. :)

Tried it out with just the leap motion and it looked cool! It would be cool if you could make a mouse mode to look around if you are not using an oculus.

I think they should be a category for VR on LD (as well as one for pure Web games -no Unity...)
