Short version:

  • Download the Cardboard app either for iOS or Android (it’s free!).
  • Launch the Cardboard demos.
  • Look up at the sky.
  • Tap the screen or push your Cardboard viewer’s button.
  • Exit the stars by either looking down at the ground or by rotating your phone back to portrait.

Longer version:
Well, you can just watch the video but I made an easter egg for the Cardboard app (iOS or Android)! It’s loosely based on an old app I made called Starfield 3D.

The video doesn’t really do it justice. It’s way more immersive in virtual reality. So if you have a Cardboard viewer, try it out! If you don’t have one, you can buy one through http://g.co/cardboard. They’re, like, 20 bucks.

Oh, also, if you did try it out and you liked it, please rate it on the store! That really helps my team to know that people liked it. Thanks.
