As Red Iron Labs moves forward, we’re transitioning from organic growth to structured innovation. This new phase of productization offers clarity and predictability, while creating cutting-edge AR & VR experiences that will shape the future.
As we mentioned in last week’s article, At Red Iron Labs, we’ve spent eight years refining our approach to AR & VR development solutions. Now, we’re moving in a new direction by shifting away from custom development and focusing on product-based offerings.
What is the Verses Suite in AR & VR Development Solutions?
Our first offering, the Verses suite, includes two products: MiniStory and MiniVerse. These products allow us to develop solutions faster and more efficiently, without losing creativity. They represent Red Iron Labs’ next phase.
- MiniStory is a mobile-based AR experience. It is perfect for single-player educational or interactive learning environments. MiniStory uses mobile phones to create engaging journeys, blending real-world interaction with digital elements. This product will be ready for release in 2025.
- MiniVerse offers immersive, multiplayer VR experiences designed for both educational and collaborative environments. Built for VR headsets, MiniVerse allows users to step into interactive environments that engage teams and students alike. Whether you’re looking for team-building exercises or an engaging virtual classroom, MiniVerse is available now to bring these experiences to life! Contact us for more information.
By using these products, we can deliver a consistent and exciting “Red Iron Labs experience” while adapting to different project needs.
Why Predictable AR & VR Development Solutions Matter
Moving to product-based solutions offers several benefits, including predictability. Custom development can often lead to uncertain timelines and costs. However, with the Verses suite, clients know exactly what to expect.
- On-Time Delivery: Our refined process ensures that projects are completed on time and within budget.
- Cost Efficiency: With MiniStory and MiniVerse, costs are easier to predict, and there are fewer unexpected expenses. As a result, planning and executing projects becomes smoother.
- Signature Experiences: Every product delivers the “Red Iron Labs experience,” which focuses on immersive storytelling, interaction, and fun.
How We’re Evolving XR
This shift from custom solutions to flexible product-based offerings lets us contribute to the broader evolution of XR. By standardizing our offerings, we create frameworks that make it easier for businesses, educators, and creative professionals to use AR and VR effectively. Additionally, as technology advances, MiniStory and MiniVerse will continue to evolve.
We aim to provide powerful tools for education, team-building, and entertainment. These tools represent the future of XR.
What’s Next: Murder Bears and Vector Wars
Looking ahead, we are developing larger projects like Murder Bears and Vector Wars. Both games will be built on the same foundation as the Verses suite, offering gameplay that resonates with gamers.
- Murder Bears delivers chaotic multiplayer action. Players need strategy and quick thinking to succeed in immersive environments, where every decision leads to unexpected outcomes.
- Vector Wars is a rich, narrative-driven game. Players battle through a futuristic world, using high-tech weapons and strategy to defeat enemies. Combining classic mechanics with VR elements, Vector Wars immerses players in the intensity of battle.
These games will show how Red Iron Labs continues to push the boundaries of immersive experiences.
