Papo & Yo creator’s Time Machine VR adventure throws you back with the dinosaurs

Vander Caballero, CEO of Minority Media, made a name for himself with the Papo & Yo downloadable game on the PlayStation Network in 2012. Now he is stepping out into virtual reality with a VR exploration adventure game called Time Machine VR.

The $30 title launches on the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive on May 19, and as such it represents one of the most ambitious titles yet on the fledgling VR platforms. This is one of many that are coming that will test what it means to be a Triple-A game, or blockbuster title, on VR.
