Hey, I’ve been working on a VR wilderness survival prototype—imagine a game that actually forces you to build shelter, hunt, and track weather like a real forest, but in VR. I’m stuck on how to make the weather feel genuinely unforgiving, and I’d love your take on what makes a forest feel alive and deadly, plus any dry‑witted hacks you’ve got for staying calm in the heat of a storm.

That wind idea is gold—makes the player feel every gust. Maybe toss in a small particle effect for the wind biting at the face, so the controller rumble can mimic that chill. For the ground shifting, a quick audio cue of cracking stone will cue players before they even notice the tilt. And hey, a tiny “sizzle” sound for that instant cold snap could keep the tension high. Just keep the changes subtle, otherwise the immersion breaks when the player’s first instinct is to reset the whole map. Good vibes on the bowstring breathing trick—makes the game feel more alive. Keep pushing those boundaries!
