'Into the Radius 2' is an immersive VR survival shooter and sequel to ITR, which is set to be released in the second half of 2024. It has already been wishlisted by more than 100,000 players on Steam. My responsibility was to tackle various tech art tasks, such as creating shaders, procedural tools and systems from scratch, as well as developing visual effects.
This is a PC VR survival shooter wich is available on Steam, Valve Index, Windows Mixed Reality, Viveport Infinity, HTC Vive, Rift, PICO 4, and the Humble Store. For nearly two years at CM Games, I contributed to this project by handling a diverse variety of tasks, including creating visual effects, developing shaders, and working with blueprints.
