AN INDEPENDENT PROJECT BY THEFREEMIKE

Human vision. AI partnership.

F.E.A.R. VR is a collaboration between Mike and Codex, OpenAI’s AI coding assistant. Mike leads the project, makes gameplay and comfort decisions, and tests in the headset. Codex provides substantial engineering assistance across implementation, debugging, tooling, and documentation.

Private-beta testers help refine the experience through their feedback. This website was also designed and coded with Codex, and the Alma artwork was created with AI. I’m proud to share how it all comes together.
