Great game!
I remember I bought this game because we had a project in writing class for Black History Month and I played this game to understand everything! this game has a lot of potential!
Excellent!!!
I love the design of this project. To make us assimilate point by point what the words of Dr. Martin Luther King mean in all their depth.
Now is the Conjunction Function
MLK: Now Is The Time” is an immersive virtual reality experience created by TIME Studios, and it explores the enduring relevance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s “I Have a Dream” speech. It focuses on the systemic injustices he highlighted, such as those in housing, voting, and policing. The project uses VR to make King’s words tangible, allowing users to interact with scenarios that illustrate ongoing racial inequalities.
The experience is both powerful and thought-provoking, though some users have noted that the visuals can feel a bit uncanny. Overall, it serves as a poignant reminder that the issues Dr. King spoke about are still very much present today.
It would end to take my hand tracking
OK, so I’ve never had a problem with my handtruck and until I play this, my hand tracking would be there and then disappear and then leave to go play different game. My hand tracking is so it’s not making any sense but wouldn’t have to keep disappearing I would’ve gave a five but you’re gonna go for me I love the graphics and everything but please fix the hand trapping or that is our controller
The best
What an emotional yet beautiful and helpful journey. The best experience and great app.
Congratulations
Mysterious fluid leak, a bug in the app?
Unexplainable fluids are leaking from my device while viewing this. The fluid is running down my eyes, down my cheek. I can't figure out what the fluid is or where it comes out from. The bug is in this app because other apps do not cause this mysterious fluid leak.
