I love this! Using screens we display 3D environments on a 2D surface. This is displaying a 3D environment on a 3D projection. I wonder how would you go about displaying a 4D environment in this 3D projection. The difference in dimensions would be akin to our conventional 3D in 2D setup, so I’d be intrigued in the comparisons we could draw from projecting 4D in 3D.
You could achieve something similar by using VR to embed 4D environments in 3D space - I’d be very surprised if something like this hasn’t already been tried tbh

Well, we can project the 4D into 3D and then project into 2D with similar results, but flattened at any one point in time obviously.

If this supports VR then even better.
No VR support listed on the Steam page :/
