The ongoing Kickstarter campaign for RedOfPaw’s Big Crazy Stupid VR Adventure and American Pie has been a frequent source of discussion for the virtual reality (VR) community. Not only is it an enticingly light-hearted approach to VR development but it’s also a dramatic statement about the way in which Kickstarters are handled. All of this is a secondary issue to Fire Panda’s Nick Pittom, however, who acknowledges that the primary goal of the campaign was to endorse his travel to the upcoming Oculus Connect event.

RedOfPaw’s Big Crazy Stupid VR Adventure and American Pie is a generous by-product that was necessitated by Pittom’s own sense of worth; he could’ve simply asked for the money, but instead he chose to offer something back to the community who are invested in his work. RedOfPaw’s Big Crazy Stupid VR Adventure and American Pie is a reward for likeminded individuals who have dug into their own pockets, and given the previous VR software developed by Fire Panda – The Boiler Room and a Totoro VR experience – the final release is likely to be of a very high quality indeed. The Kickstarter campaign for RedOfPaw’s Big Crazy Stupid VR Adventure and American Pie has already passed it’s target and is now aiming for stretch goals, and VRFocus will keep you updated with all the latest details from Fire Panda.
