Today we'll not take a look at a game, but a group of smart people who try to develop a "cyber therapy" to help people with acrophobia, the fear of heights. They use an Unreal Engine 4 based environment to gather data from volunteers: the “Lift”.

I take a quick look at it and talk a little about this phobia.
If you want to support their cause, throw some of your endless gaming money at them and spread the word, so they can get the support they need. For more info, check the links below.
