Game Vermillion – VR Painting

About This Game

It’s time to discover your inner artist! With Vermillion, you get a fully equipped oil painting studio in your home, without any of the mess. Ready for the unrivaled sense of accomplishment from creating your first painting? Learn with your favorite YouTube artists using the built-in web browser, trace reference images directly on the canvas, or even better – learn to paint from (new) friends in multiplayer!

Up to four people can paint together in the studio. Share palettes, work together on each other’s canvas, teach a class, or have an old-fashioned paint night.

Vermillion features realistic wet-on-wet color mixing, undo, layers, and a wide range of simulated brushes. Developed with the feedback of both traditional and digital artists, you’re sure to get the fun of oil painting without any of the frustration.

Once done, easily share your masterpiece as an image. Or, create a beautifully varnished 3D model export for your VR home.

FEATURES:

Multiplayer

Paint together with up to three of your friends, or new friends you meet in public rooms. Cross platform with Quest 2.

Analogue color mixing

Vermillion allows you to blend colors as you would with real paints. Dip your brush into multiple colors, and mix a new color by whisking the brush on the palette – and yes, yellow and blue make green!

Integrated web browser with canvas projector

Never painted before? No problem! The easel has a web browser right next to it, allowing you to paint along with your favorite artists on YouTube for the first time without needing physical equipment, and giving you convenient access to the internet’s vast library of learning resources and reference material.
Vermillion comes with an hour long in-game paint-along teaching you how to paint a cute robin – you’ll hardly believe what you are capable of!

The browser can even be projected onto the canvas, so you can easily trace your reference. You can also display local images on the browser.

Designed for wet-on-wet painting

Vermillion is made for wet-on-wet painting. It mixes color not only on the palette, but also on the canvas, allowing you to create perfectly smooth gradients with just a few strokes. Use a dry brush to blend colors further, or to move paint around to create a variety of effects from reflections to grass.

Layers

While Vermillion is made to be the ultimate wet-on-wet experience, sometimes you just need to paint on another layer for detail work. Which is why it’s fortunate that there is currently support for four separate layers!

Fine control over every mark

Exert fine-grained control over your brushwork through the pressure with which you press the brush into the surface. Use the hand steadying tool to compensate for the lack of a physical canvas to rest your hand against.

Distinct brushes

From the two inch brush all the way down to the rigger, there’s a brush for every occasion.

Sharable

You can export your finished painting as a 3D model to use in your VR home, share through Sketchfab, or use in social VR applications. Vermillion also offers up to 8k image export of your finished piece, which can be used for canvas prints!

Made for streamers

With a controllable spectator camera to offer great views of the process while streaming or recording, as well as full LIV support, you’ll be sure to create amazing content.
