A downloadable experience for Windows

This is the Penguin Manju Go icebreaker from the series A Place Further than the Universe (based on the real life Icebreaker Shirase) in VR! It's not much, just the ship to wander around and some sprites of the girls made from screenshots. I built this environment for use in my "VR Tour" series on YouTube where I take a look at real world locations in anime mainly using Google Earth VR.  You can see the segment I used it for here at 16:14. Check out the series if you enjoy this sort of thing!

To begin playing, just walk through the wall of the title cube. Pink spheres indicate screenshot locations. Sprites are one-sided so stand near a sphere first and then look around from there. Moving up/down only works when you're not moving. (I couldn't be bothered to figure out a better way to do it.)

Since it has already served its purpose, it is already "feature complete" and probably won't be updated but I can't promise it will work on anything aside from a Valve Index since that's all I have and I'm not a game dev. Sorry if you can't get it working. (If you try it with another headset, leave a comment saying whether it works or not.)
