The Spire
The Spire: a dark epic VR saga set in a realm of frost, ruin, and forgotten giants. The thread of fate is yours to pull.
A Giant’s Playground
Jotunheim Press
From the frozen halls where giants once strode, we forge sagas in starlight, code, and dream.
Who We Are
Jotunheim Press is a small indie software studio built by three veteran developers with more than 75 years of combined experience. We are building immersive VR games and narrative tools that blend old-world saga with modern technology.
Our current focus is The Spire, a dark fantasy VR experience where AI-driven narrative, procedural worlds, and hand-crafted scale collide. Along the way, we are developing tools that may one day stand on their own: the Narrative Engine, a story engine for responsive narrative in VR and tabletop-style roleplay; World Builder, a creator’s toolset for turning words into explorable 3D worlds; and a growing pipeline of AI-assisted world-building techniques.
Our Projects
Narrative Engine
An AI story engine that listens, responds, and can weave plausible narrative for solo players and live tabletop groups alike.
World Builder
An AI-assisted pipeline for creating the places described by both the Narrative Engine and yourself. Describe a place in words and step into it in VR.
System Requirements
The Spire and its tools connect your VR headset to the AI backend running on your PC for a truly unique VR experience that you won't forget.
