Butts: The VR Experience Might Not Be What Oculus Had In Mind (But That’s OK)
I have experienced quite a number of virtual reality experiences. I’ve soared through space with EVE Valkyrie. I’ve calmed myself with Harmonix’s VR music program. I’ve nearly fallen off a building. I have not yet seen cartoon butts.
Butts is a short film created by Tyler Hurd. You can check it out below in all its 2D glory. If you have an Oculus Rift DK2 or later though, you can immerse your self in posteriors.

Thanks to assistance from Skillman & Hackett, a San Francisco firm specializing in virtual reality, you can check out Butts: The VR Experience in a 360-degree format. If you like the Butts you see, you can check out more of Hurd’s work on his Vimeo page.
If this is the future of virtual reality, sign me up. You can download Butts: The VR Experience for the Oculus Rift DK2 on Hurd's website for the project.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
