Martin Rumenov Hotel Infinity invites players into a surreal, mind-bending journey where architecture defies logic and perception is constantly challenged. Set to launch on November 13th for PSVR2 and Meta Quest, this highly anticipated VR title from Studio Chyr—the creative force behind Manifold Garden—is built from the ground up to maximize roomscale movement, transforming a small physical space into an expansive, ever-shifting labyrinth.
Step Into the Impossible
Welcome to Hotel Infinity — a place where corridors stretch into infinity, rooms reconfigure themselves, and nothing is quite as it seems. Designed exclusively for virtual reality, the experience leverages portals, gravity shifts, and Escher-like geometry to create the illusion of boundless exploration within just a 2×2 meter play area. Each step forward could lead to a new dimension, a hidden passage, or a puzzle that bends the rules of reality.
Players are encouraged to explore at their own pace, uncovering the hotel’s mysteries through environmental storytelling and intricate spatial puzzles. The design blends the familiar with the uncanny, turning mundane hotel aesthetics into something eerily otherworldly. It’s a world where doors open into impossible spaces, hallways loop in on themselves, and every discovery raises new questions.
Crafted for VR
Unlike traditional games adapted for VR, Hotel Infinity was conceived with immersive technology at its core. Studio Chyr has prioritized roomscale interaction, ensuring that physical movement—crouching, leaning, stepping sideways—is integral to both navigation and puzzle-solving. This approach allows the game to simulate vast, intricate environments without requiring a large physical footprint.
The experience builds on the studio’s expertise in manipulating perspective and space, first showcased in Manifold Garden, but pushes the concept further by fully embracing the potential of VR. The result is a deeply personal and immersive journey, where the boundary between player and environment dissolves.
Sound of the Surreal
The atmosphere is heightened by an original score from Laryssa Okada, composer of Manifold Garden, whose ambient, evocative music enhances the game’s dreamlike tone. Sound design plays a crucial role, with subtle audio cues guiding exploration and deepening the sense of isolation and wonder.
From Acclaimed Studio
Founded by artist and developer William Chyr in Chicago, Studio Chyr is known for its unique fusion of art, architecture, and gameplay. After the critical success of Manifold Garden in 2019, the team turned their focus to VR, aiming to create an experience that could only exist in this medium. Hotel Infinity is the culmination of years of experimentation with spatial design and perception.
