Description: Fly freely through a surreal maze of evolving sculptures. Take a break from reality and explore an animated psychedelic sculpture park. Wander through the labyrinth, soar across the open space, or just hang out and let the mesmerizing ever-changing sculptures provide a rejuvenating refuge for your mind. Blortasia combines art and flying in virtual reality.
Blortasia is a virtual reality art experience designed to engage the imagination and inspire wonder through shape, colour, motion, sound, and spatial presence. Instead of recreating art from the real world, Blortasia explores virtual reality as an aesthetic medium in and of itself. Rather than telling a narrative story like a movie, or presenting objectives, puzzles, and challenges like a game, Blortasia transports you into an art installation unconstrained by the limits of ordinary reality.
Review: Blortasia is not something everyone will enjoy, but it is something I personally enjoyed. It’s like a weird work of art moving and growing in front of your eyes as you float around inside of it. Throw in some relaxing music and you have yourself a weird escape from reality that is oddly relaxing. I do wish it had a few more options like being able to play your own music and a few more interactive elements, but overall it is still worth a download. Maybe not for the asking price of £5.19 but do grab it in a sale or as part of a cheap bundle.
