Among the Sleep got people talking last month when it was first shown off, because it was about a horror game starring a toddler. Interesting premise, but as the parent of a toddler myself, it also got me thinking.

Could a game capture that? Sure it can, and this video shows how.
Filmmaker Daniel Brace took a small camera, strapped it to his daughter’s head then played hide & seek with her. The first-person vantage point makes me wish I could pick up a control pad and play this, because what’s a boring game for us looks way more fun when you’re only a few feet off the ground.
And run like a maniac.
OK, so it would need something more to it than just hide & seek. But as the foundation for a game, “the insane fun tiny children have running around” is a good place to start!
