All Mode
The dry spell is over!
For a while there, it seemed like things in the roomscale VR porn scene had dried up as all the new stuff was given the limelight and the developers retreated into their programming space to work on various projects. Well, thanks to Pronczar‘s efforts, we have a newer developer working on a currently functional and playable project!
Pronczar is creating a project called iCandy. You can download the free version through his patreon page. What’s iCandy? It’s a room scale experience where you can create the girl of your dreams and fuck her. Sounds pretty generic, right? All the other guys have sliders to adjust the bodies, faces, different positions, etc… So, why bother? Because this guy managed to get it right.
The interface
Probably the most important part of any program, the interface in iCandy is simple and easy to use. It’s so easy, you can use it one handed… Which is pretty important. The buttons are large, clear, and easy to click on. The sliders act like they should, and the descriptions match up quite nicely. It’s really easy to create a pretty attractive female.
The biggest feature so far.
Character customization in this app is really well done for such an early version. The sliders all make sense and you can adjust them to suit a wide range of tastes… Need a hot chick? Boom.. Set one up.. Prefer girls with a bit more… No, a LOT more meat on their bones? Crank up the fatness level and jiggle away. Have a fantasy about an anorexic pregnant crack whore elf with green eyes and orange hair? Well… As screwy as it is, with the amount of customization available, that base is covered too!
Sloth love chunk, right? Riiight… So yeah, you can set the titty size, the amount of cleavage, shape, etc.. This is just one example of a fatty you can make with a minute of playing around and not even really trying that hard. That’s more than I can say for a lot of this style of adult VR game because some of them seem like they take a master’s degree in modeling to come up with a halfway decent result.
And other extremes.
Pronczar even thought to put in a few extras that most people wait until later to add in… Mouse ears, rabbit ears, elf ears, etc… Just a couple little touches you won’t find anywhere else. You can also adjust the eye color and the hair color to suit your tastes. The best part is that it’s really easy to do. Just select the head region and then the hair. The interface is so intuitive you don’t really need any instructions to be successful with what you want to do.
Facial modification and visuals.
The level of detail that went into the face, makeup, and expressions is pretty high. Pretty much all of the facial features are adjustable. Cheeks, lips, eyes, hair, etc. Again, the nice thing is that despite the complexity of the faces you can make with the simple sliders, it’s still easy to do and gives you a chance to make some very unique faces, or perhaps to copy someone else’s face… I’m not sure what caused the green streaks, I did not notice them while iCandy was running.
The environment.
The environment is well laid out and very open. That way, when you’re in room scale mode, you can actually walk around and look at stuff. All of the pictures on the wall have something legible on them. The mirror actually has a reflection to it. Basically, what I’m saying is that the whole room was really well done. The quality of the background is to a point where if you could string a few of these rooms together, you’d have a pretty decent house tour simulator.
On to the action.
The whole point of the VR sex simulator is the VR sex. This is one area that still needs work. Currently, there’s only one position available. The nice thing though is that it was done really well. There’s no obvious clipping between the bodies and the animations are nice and smooth. The female’s head tracking works quite well and it will follow the headset pretty much wherever you go. The interface for sex is really simple and easy to use even with your off-hand.
So yeah, never mind the fact that I created an anorexic pregnant crack-whore-looking elf with overly long fingers… Clearly, I have issues… This does go to show just what you can create if you’ve got a few spare minutes and just want to do something stupid and funny.
The sex is pretty standard bedside cowgirl. Look down and watch yourself thrust away based on where you set your “sex slider” to. Speed, depth, and cum are pretty much your only options at this point, but more should be added in the future.
The cum textures weren’t terribly exciting and the only way to nut in this game is currently inside the girl. No pulling out and giving a big goopy facial… Yet… But we’ll just have to see where the development goes with regards to additional positions, options, and scenes.
As with any patreon project.
Support your indy devs. You can download this for free off Pronczar’s patreon site but consider donating – there still aren’t any big-name studios who are going to give us what we want yet, and our pleas for porn star avatars in a 3d environment that we can interact with are falling on deaf ears. Our independent developers are giving us what we want and we should return the favor. Not only that, but the indy devs also take constructive criticism, feedback, and suggestions…
Suggestions like, how cool would it be if you moved around the bed, and the animation changed automatically depending on where your headset was in relation to the bed? Stand on the side, she rolls over and you get a blowjob while she plays with herself. Stand at the foot of the bed. Fuck away. Back away from the bed altogether, she puts on a show with vibrator… Sure, might not happen… But… At the same time, it just might…
Try and get any studio to do that without having a thousand people all calling for the same thing. You know, like Bethesda… I’m still waiting for those guys to port Skyrim on to Daggerfall… Odds are, the indy community will port Daggerfall to Unity long before that happens. (Yes, it’s in the works.) I digress.

Attention to details like character features and background is really appreciated….
I know I’ve heard about this iCandy before.
Sadly the weekend is over, gonna try this next weekend, will share my experience in this thread.
This looks pretty cool. How easy is it to install and get going on Oculus Rift? Is there a quick guide or something somewhere?
It’s really easy. It’s just a .exe you run, no set up like some of those Japanese ports.
