Pulsargeist is a novel horror game concept where your real environment becomes the play area.
Trapped in darkness, you must find hidden memories while being hunted by a terrifying entity. Clap your hands to reveal your surroundings but be quick... the light fades fast!
This game takes advantage of the Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest 3's mixed reality technology such as video passthrough, room reconstruction and hand tracking to create a unique and immersive experience. Play through a story mode filled with secrets, or customize your own settings for a more personal challenge in custom mode.

Background
Developed by SXP Studio, Pulsargeist reflects the studio's aim to build emotionally immersive and innovative experiences.
The project began as a 48-hour prototype created for VisionHack 2024, where it won first prize in the Games & Entertainment category. The goal was to harness the power of Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest 3 to create a horror experience that blends reality and fear in the player's own environment.
After the hackathon, the concept was expanded into a full game, adding revisited visual effects, a brand new narrative-driven story mode as well as a custom mode that allows players to tailor the game experience to their desired difficulty and gameplay settings.
