The article below shows you another reason why I keep saying that Edinburgh is the best place for game developers and new business ideas.
A good example could be E-VR the first Scottish virtual reality centre that was founded in Edinburgh.
But before that, I just want to mention what is e-vr.
E-VR is a virtual reality centre, where you can try the most exciting Virtual Reality games. You also can bring your friends and make a VR Party! And try to kill the zombies together! The whole fun didn't here.
There also is a green screen room for movie makers as well, and a special place for the game developers to work on their vr titles.
So if you working on vr game or application you are very welcome there!
And this is just the beginning. I really can't wait for more ideas that E-VR can bring.
Below you can find the list of the games you can play now in E-VR, and the list will get bigger and bigger.
I will recommend to have a look on their website and try to book a space for a game or two!
