Craig Herndon is Virtually Real

Episode 57: the fantastic fifty-seventh episode of the PokeProblemsPodcast. Our special guest this week is Craig Herndon of Digital Precept! We have a fascinating conversation with him about what drew him to the world of VR, starting Digital Precept with his good friend Jonathan Schrack, the process of developing Digital Precept's upcoming VR title, Kung Fu: Shadow Fist, the stress of showing at PAX South, splitting his time as a member of the Boston VR community and the Memphis Game Developers community, and VR in general! Find him online on the web, on Twitter, on Facebook!

Thanks for listening! Do you have a favorite VR headset? Are you planning to go the Boston VR Meetup next week? Do you want to ask Craig about his favorite VR games? Do you agree with the results of our BroQuest poll? Are you only going to see the Assassin's Creed movie because Michael Fassbender is the hotness? If you have any questions or comments, we want to hear from you. Tweet, email, or comment on the blog or Facebook to let us know!
