Raicuparta’s studio, No Brakes Games, surprisingly acquired an experimental VR assist from the modder following an early glimpse into innovative management concepts showcased in a video. Although the mod wasn’t officially greenlit, its influence sufficed in prompting the studio to actively pursue Raicuparta’s involvement.
“Exuding enthusiasm, Raicuparta shares that he confirmed the video with the sports’ creators, who were subsequently thrilled.” “They offered to rent from me, but unfortunately, that arrangement didn’t fit my schedule at the time.”

“They subsequently offered to buy the mod from me, so they could eventually incorporate the ‘puppet controls’ concept into their official VR game.” “I must admit I didn’t expect to receive payment from them in the first place, so their generosity was truly appreciated.”

Working closely with Flat2VR Studios, an Influence Actuality studio specializing in converting flat-screen video games to immersive virtual reality experiences, Raicuparta played a key role in porting the upcoming release to all major VR headsets, set to debut alongside a wave of official VR ports.
