'Vinyl Reality' from EntroPi Games introduces an immersive experience that lets users take on the role of a DJ. In Vinyl Reality, users are able to realistically manipulate mixers and even load their own MP3 audio tracks.
Wanting to explore the work of a DJ can be a costly hobby to decide to take on, but this virtual reality experience only calls for users to have invested in a VR headset. As it stands, the game's creators are focused on "making the application more accessible to people who have no prior DJing experience, by adding features that will lower the learning curve."
Although Vinyl Reality has users mix with virtual equipment, they are able to record, export and share real save files as part of the experience.
