Hi. im Swedish guy with early dreams of VR since i first tried the "Virtuality" arcade machine "Nightmare" later called "Dactyl Nightmare". My goal is to bring my childhood dream back from the dead, for the historic value and because it was a lot of peoples first VR experience!

I have gain the original Programer and graphic designers blessing to recreate the game. but have failed to reach the actual owner of the Game.

The game will be Free of charge and should NOT be redistributed without my knowledge.



Everything is built from scratch and is measured by eye sight from this lone clip!
all 3D work is made in sketchup and all sound effects are taken from the original videoclip.

Fredrik,

Per our conversation, I agree to the release of the “tribute” to the Dactyl Nightmare VR video game called Polygon Nightmare to the Oculus platform, with the following changes:

@RABID actually the original arcade machine only use one thumb button on the joystick to move forward, but of course with a little guidance i love to make it runnable on anny VR platform. my next goal is to make it working on the Vive platform and support the right buttons on their controler.  🙂
