Description

Pollen is a first‑person exploration game set on Saturn’s moon Titan, where you investigate the abandoned Research Station M and uncover the fate of its crew. The game blends science‑fiction storytelling with atmospheric world‑building, drawing inspiration from classics like Solaris and 2001: A Space Odyssey. Optimized for the Oculus Rift and other VR headsets, Pollen offers multiple comfort movement modes, fully interactable environments, and a narrative that unfolds without forced camera cuts or jump scares, allowing players to experience Titan at their own pace.

Tacoma is a sci‑fi narrative adventure set aboard a high‑tech space station in 2088. As hired operative Amy, you board the Tacoma Lunar Transfer Station to retrieve ODIN's AI core and piece together what happened. The game lets you explore every corner of the station, uncovering augmented reality logs that reveal the lives, fears, and decisions of the six crew members, building a gripping tale of trust and disaster.
