You know. Like Tron 2.0, Tank Universal or Darwinia. Games set in a virtual world of untextured polys, glowing vectors and so on.

...I actually don't know of more examples than those three! What are some other games in this genre?

Frozen Synapse.

Huh. Alright yeah that counts, looks intriguing

I really want this genre to make a comeback now that VR is a thing

Sublevel Zero also kind of fits this aesthetic, though the game itself is meant to be taking place reality.

Rez is an obvious one. You should play it if you like electronic music, OP!

I love this trope and want to see more suggestions. Please keep thread alive.

I still play Multiwinia daily for those feels and pray for an Oculus port/sequel to occur somehow

Reminds me of Nitronic Rush

I made a ton of custom levels in Timesplitters Future Perfect with the VR tileset.

Not entirely related but you should check out Far Cry Blood Dragon

>>323394537
I never fund anything but I was close to give that game some bucks.

Hows the soundtrack?

Too bad I'm not a big racing fan.

mooing this thread to le splash screen of front :^)

DEFCON and I guess War, the Game would count. Not really too sure about the latter, but an untextured polyframe of a person representing an assistant AI talks to you, announces what orders you're giving, mission briefs, etc.
