5The just-announced Birdseed VR posits an interesting idea - an immersive, cozy game where you take pictures of cute birds and hang out in the shared space with others, should you so choose. We caught up with Buffalo Buffalo creative head Patrick Owens to discuss the game’s concept, designing mechanics around such a slow-paced and methodical concept, the importance of audio in gameplay, and more!
