The Climb is a first-person virtual reality game, developed by Crytek and Oculus Studios.

The player's task is to climb up to a summit using Oculus Touch[a], moving their hands to grab the next ledge.

Some levels contain additional elements such as ladders and ziplines, as well as unusual grips like a giant mammoth skull's tusks sticking out of a block of ice, or a downed airplane's propellers.

After discovering the performance was still good while looking at landscapes from the cliff, they started to develop a game around the view.

Looking out over the vistas, the render calls were all good, we’re getting 90 frames per second, sub 20 millisecond response times.
