Steam App ID: 1165850

Il Divino: Michelangelo’s Sistine Ceiling in VR  is a Virtual Reality experience powered by Unreal Engine where you can walk through and learn about the Sistine Chapel Ceiling\.  This experience was created exclusively for the SIGGRAPH 2019 Immersive Pavilion, by the team behind the previous SIGGRAPH 2017 VR piece:  Il Gigante: Michelangelo’s David in VR \. Debuting at SIGGRAPH on Valve’s INDEX headset, Il Divino delivers an experience of the highest fidelity –you can see individual cracks and brush strokes in the plaster\!  Step onto Michelangelo’s own scaffold and learn about how he painted the ceiling, or enter a Vatican conservator’s mobile aerial platform to see the ceiling up close, and learn about the controversial cleaning\. In all, there are over 100 clickable elements about Michelangelo’s monumental work\.  There is also an non\-vr mode available for keyboard and mouse play\.
