Z+Angband Virtual Reality dev idea

Z+Angband Virtual Reality dev idea
How feasible would it be to produce and procedural, randomised unreal engine style interface for Vive HTC to feature a tower of 100 floors like Druaga/SAO?
(Hardcore difficulty with secrets on everyfloor + Boss)
Just an idea to co-op with the Z+Angband Dev, a competition across the tunnels of angband and tower of Babylon? Championship for both? And perhapes a final round?
It would be nice to have a working concept atleast for the 30th anniversary of angband in 2020.

- donwload Necklace of the Eye frontend
- develop a set of tiles for Z+Angband
- launch the game in FPP mode
- enjoy!

This is probably not exactly what you want, but it's the closer I can think of that would be simple to implement.

It sounds a lot like you're a dreamer/ideas-type-person. Which is good... but, unless you can a) do it yourself, or b) convince a few quite talented people or quite a few talented people, it's not going to happen. I hate to be the one to break it to you, but that is the reality of niche games. The only exception I can think of off-hand is if you're seriously loaded and can just pay people out of pocket.

Generally I'd say you have to have a much more fleshed-out idea than "Angband"+"VR" to get anyone to actualy think you have anything beyond the vaguest idea of what you're doing game-design-wise. Anybody can do "existing tech" + "hyped tech"... Watch this: Angchain (Angband on the Blockchain), Ang'urs Gate (Infinity Engine + Angband), D3 (ugh), Droneband. (Etc., you get the idea.)

Now there's a good idea. I would call it Angcoin, Coinband or Bitband though. I'm sure some people would invest in that. Quickly, before the trend dies
