Stefan, one of the integral parts of Hex VR, is impressively just fifteen years old and already has 5+ years of experience in the coding industry. From sound artists, programmers, marketing professionals, and legal experts, it has taken a village of people with special talents to make Hex VR a reality.

Currently, Hex VR is still in its beta phase, and with help from the Leeds School of Business and Get Seed Funding, they are on track to finish and launch the full version of the game within the next year. Abhay says

鈥淭he game is still in a beta version. The cool part about that is it is still released to the public. Members of our community get the chance to try out the game as it progresses and get to witness it firsthand. That way, when the game grows, people can talk about how they used to play it back when it was first built.鈥
