Overview
Skinscape is a unique virtual reality artwork created by UK-based artist Ian Truelove. This experience invites players to step inside a digital painting that has been scaled up to an immense size, spanning several square kilometers. Unlike procedurally generated landscapes, every contour and feature within Skinscape is the result of a deliberate human gesture, meticulously hand-painted by the artist.
Highlights

- Free-to-Play Indie Title: Developed and published by Ian Truelove, this indie VR experience is available for free on Steam.
