The full version of the Estonian VR game 'Bootstrap Island', under development for years, is now on sale

The full version of 'Bootstrap Island', a VR survival game developed in Estonia, has been released on Steam after years of development.

'Bootstrap Island' is a virtual reality survival game that transports players to a tropical island following a shipwreck in the 17th century. Players must adapt quickly to the new environment to survive, mirroring themes from 'Robinson Crusoe'. The game has been under development for nearly four years and represents an ambitious project in the Estonian gaming landscape with a team of 15 people, including talents from various creative fields.

The game's soundtrack has been composed by renowned Estonian composer Liina Sumera, while the artistic direction comes from animation director Mattias Mรคlk. Rein Zobel, with a background in film direction, takes on the role of creative director for the project. This collaboration exemplifies the integration of diverse artistic expertise in game development, enhancing the overall experience of the game.

Significantly, 'Bootstrap Island' is the first Estonian game to receive funding from the European Commission's Creative Europe's MEDIA program, showcasing the potential of Estonian digital creativity on an international scale. With its release, the developers aim to not only attract gamers but also to promote Estonia as a rising hub for innovative gaming solutions.
