Just amazing…

Before discovering Recombination, Tripp and Tetris Effect were my go-to’s for VR visual experiences. But Recombination completely redefines the genre for me—it’s simply on another level of immersion. The detail in every aspect is astounding, and the music complements the visuals perfectly. For the best experience, I highly recommend using external headphones. It’ll take you deeper down the rabbit hole

Love it

I tried to download this about a year ago but left negative feedback as it would only let me download 4 of the videos. I got a refund and decided to try downloading it again. This time it has worked and have got all 10 videos downloaded. I have changed my feedback to five stars now. I enjoy the app and love the soothing music that goes with the animation. Well done developers and thank you for spring out the problem I originally had.

Know what you are getting

This is a collection of 8 pre-rendered VR180 videos of 3D fractals by fractal artist Julius Horsthuis. Each video is accompanied by an electronic music track, but there is only the most basic of synchronization with the music. The videos range in length from about 3 minutes to 6 minutes. The viewing angle seems to be slightly offset, so you get about 80 degrees in one direction and 100 degrees in the other; this can help give the impression the videos are more than 180 degrees provided you look around in the right direction. I believe Horsthuis uses the program Mandelbulb 3D to generate these. You can get a good taste by finding similar videos on Youtube, including ones by Horsthuis, but in a lower resolution (4K, while I think this app uses 8K). Use YouTube VR and search for “mandelbulb VR180”. It’s worth doing that to get an idea of what you are getting here. 3D fractals are very trippy. Sometimes they’re almost creepy. In addition, the evolving fractal and camera movement could cause some motion sickness in those prone to it. While these videos are great, its hard to recommend this app at the price. I think it would have made more sense for the app to be free and have samples of each, and sell the individual videos separately as DLC. That would give people a better idea of what they are getting and open up the app to those who may be interested but not $40 interested.

Magnificent! Transcendental!

Well, this was really extraordinary and it gave me goosebumps. I was totally transfixrd. The closest I've come to a DMT experience in a headset. Simply beautiful beyond words. Wonderful music as well. Only criticism I could level at this masterpiece is that I wanted to be MORE submerged. I wanted to touch, eat and breath the fractals, cover my skin and swim. Amazing, Julius! Give me MORE! 💜☮💜

Dreams come true

I loved every one of the options avaliable, i wish there were more. It is incredible. My only complaint is that it is not 360°. And also another complaint, but it is minor, it is that i wish that there were more movement in the fractal themselves like in some parts of the second video.
