VRFocus - National Film Television School (NFTS) student Ana Ribeiro has earned herself quite a lot of media coverage of late thanks to her inspired take on life as a young female videogame fan in the latter decades of the last century. Pulling from her own experiences of playing videogames from outside the core demographic and struggling to be recognised as a 'true' member of the audience, Ribeiro's videogame has you playing the role of a young girl in each era of videogames from 8-bit through to the turn of the century, all the while developed as an exclusively virtual reality (VR) experience. Pixel Rift is no ordinary student project then, and this shows in the remarkable attention to detail within the videogame.
