RepetitionVR

A VR Simulator to Overcome Social Anxiety and Isolation


What is RepetitionVR?



RepetitionVR is a narrative game which follows an immersive, engaging, and escape-room-like flow. Set in the peak of COVID, it hopes to tackle the feelings of isolation, anxiety, and negativity that were felt by many during this era and continue to be felt through the present-day. RepetitionVR aims to provide users with critical tools for fostering positive social interactions and for breaking patterns of behavior that cause a cycle of isolation!




Who can use RepetitionVR?



This product is made for everyone, but it is especially for those who may be facing these feelings in their real life. Our product hopes to hope to provide comfort, education, and support to individuals hoping to overcome feelings of social anxiety and isolation. While we would like users to come away with empathy for those facing mental illness, we also want to provide them with tools to escape the downward spiral of mental illness. 

 

Note: The product does include sensitive topics, so we advise consideration prior to use.
