@thetylerhayes fancy seeing you here.

@jasonhitchcock @thetylerhayes 👋

@jasonhitchcock Can you unpack that? What do you mean?

@thetylerhayes @jasonhitchcock game mechanics are constrained by human/computer interaction models. We've been playing games in a world of flat rectangles up until now. Everything we've ever imagined about video games is stuck in a 2D flat screen. When I said a liquidity of game formats, the subtext is that we have a scarcity of formats given the form factor constraints of a flat screen and a controller: staring at a screen in front of you, staring down at a screen. VR expands the creative space by radically changing the gaming formfactor in way the makes more valid human/computer interaction models possible. Put another way OLD: flat screen NEW: holodeck
