Anders Olssen, Vice President of software partners at Tobii: “Working with Still-Alive Studios has been a pleasure from the first day. As true pioneers they immediately grasped the potential eye tracking would have in Son of Nor, and created the world’s first game extended with eye tracking functionality. Even without eye tracking Son of Nor is a very immersive game, but being able to terraform the environment, pick up objects and shoot without having to center the screen – all made possible through eye tracking – takes the level of immersion to a level I have not experienced before.”
