Ragdoll games just know how to scratch the lizard part of our brain that enjoys being the destructive force of chaos while also finding the moral center of our frontal lobe by not causing any real-world harm (or felony charges ).
Now you will be able to see the fruits of your destruction in a virtual environment like Flat human fall and his hapless bumbling hero are headed to the Meta Quest and Steam VR headsets this Halloween. Curve Games and No Brakes Games are also working on a PSVR2 version at a date yet to be announced.
Flat human fall is a three-dimensional physics platformer where you control a flexible ragdoll human named Bob. As in the other games, you'll see Bob in a third-person perspective as you use his wiry limbs to guide him through a series of strange obstacles, such as a train that somehow derailed on the top floor of a mansion. Victorian style, a dysfunctional power plant in desperate need of an OSHA overhaul, and the inevitable global level of ice.
Owners of a Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3 or Meta Quest 3S headset can pre-order the game now at the for the discounted price of $9.99. It doesn't have a price yet but you can add it to your wish list.
