The Sad, Inevitable Oculus Rift Boob-Grabbing Game Is Here

The Sad, Inevitable Oculus Rift Boob-Grabbing Game Is Here

You can do some cool shit with the Oculus Rift: You can simulate what flying feels like, or use it to pick out your next car. And if you have less experience with the female anatomy than Steve Carell in The 40 Year Old Virgin, now you can use it to simulate grabbing a handful of boob.

Ah, technology.

In a video posted on Japan’s Nicovideo, a man called Ryuto demonstrates his homebrew game, cobbled together with a Rift, an Arduino control board, a LeapMotion pressure sensor … and artificial breasts made from what looks like a gel-filled mousepad. Classy.

The Sad, Inevitable Oculus Rift Boob-Grabbing Game Is Here

This isn’t the first DIY-sexytimes game made for Oculus. There’s also a simulation where you can lay your head in an anime character’s lap, courtesy of Japanese developer Up Frontier.

To be honest, I think it’s less messed up to grab a pair of artificial bazongas than it is to practice shooting virtual guns. But don’t get me wrong. This is creepy.

The anime girl, Mami, grabs her chest defensively and makes a surprised noise every time Ryutu pulls a Danny Zucko, giving the whole thing less of an endearing-virgin vibe and more of a subway-groper-in-training theme. Would it have been difficult to make Mami a willing participant to the caressing in this uncanny valley? No more difficult than constructing this whole bizarre project.

Next time we use some of the most advanced virtual reality technology to make a sex game, let’s try to make it more consensual, shall we? [RocketNews24 via Daily Dot]
