Nvidia releases mod kit for its zany VR Funhouse game

Nvidia‘s first game ever, the virtual reality experience dubbed VR Funhouse, has been downloaded more than 100,000 times since its release in July. And now the graphics chip maker is following that up with the release of a new mod kit and five new mods for VR Funhouse.

Victoria Rege, product lead for VR Funhouse, said in a press briefing that the free game is meant to show how to pull off a technically sophisticated VR game with realistic physics. As such, Nvidia wants the game community to learn from the free Steam game and go on to create more modifications of the game that highlight new tools, lessons, and experiences.
