Sometimes you imagine yourself wearing one of those space suits and really walking in space. Put on your space suits now. With the new VR game released by Opaque Space, your daydreams will become a reality.

Actually, you won’t be able to take ‘all of you’ into space. It’s a virtual reality simulation game so ‘some of you’ will be in space – in the software – while the real part of you sits in an armchair moving aimlessly like some psycho.

Well, that’s how you may look while you’re on a VR headset.
