Insomniac debuts Seedling AR demo for Magic Leap One

Marvel’s Spider-Man video game maker Insomniac unveiled a new augmented reality demo dubbed Seedling for the Magic Leap One Creator Edition AR glasses.

The Seedling demo lets you take care of a plant, which holds the promise to save the Balagan galaxy, where the Schmelling (I am not at all sure of the spelling here) incident destroyed all the vegetation in the entire galaxy. The demo is part of Insomniac’s effort to be a leader in leading-edge AR and virtual reality platforms.
