Hello there. I assume you’re here to learn more about Banter. Well, SideQuest made a Social VR game. With excellent physics in it. So, go ahead and click ‘more…’ to learn more. See it down there in blue? Isn’t that meta?
The best physics in Social VR
Harness cutting-edge FlexaPhysics ™️ (made with ♥️by Nimso) and bend gravity to your will. Or get rid of it entirely. Who needs gravity, anyway?
Be who you want to be
Pick from Ready Player Me or a fully custom avatar. Import your creations from Blender to really own your look.

Banter is free to play—and always will be. Welcome to our worlds!
I love this app and the community in it! It’s so exciting to watch this app grow! The community is great. People from around the world come in and hang out, play games, and do events. Theres many different ways to move around in Banter, and one way that is very unique compared to any other apps is the spider ropes. I run one of the events called Goth Night, and we dress up in our finest black clothes and swing around like spiders in a dark cathedral!
Came for giveaway,stayed for community. It's a social game, and even as a not-so-social person, I love it! I joined back in April for some giveaway. It was a good app then, it's a great app now, and extra features are coming almost every week.
I still remember my first event. We were with 3 people (me, the host and the CEO) AND I still had an awesome time. Now the discord has 6000+ members and there are concurrent events with lots of people in each of them.
The physics engine is on point. You can walk, run, jump, climb, fall, slide, crouch, ... (yes, you have legs in Banter!) There are parkour events to teach you everything. Or you can go to a space with recordings of the parkour teacher's avatar to learn everything at your own pace. Gorilla-tag mode (legs disappear, and you walk on your hands) is in beta and a flying mode is announced where you will have to flap your arms to fly.
You can build your own spaces with A-Frame and/or Unity and host them wherever you want (Technically, Banter is a browser and the spaces are webpages) There is a synced YouTube player so you can watch videos together. Banter uses ReadyPlayerMe avatars, but custom avatars are currently in beta (there are some limitations like max 15000 triangles to make sure Banter stays performant) You can cast your PC screen to share any content you want There is an AI-Gallery where you can do SpeechToImage And also Karaoke, Improv Night, Game Night (jackbox,tv) Goth Night, Dinner Party (in mixed reality for VRDesktop users), Story time (listen to people reading books), zero-gravity at the ISS, ... and MORE!
Last but not least, the community is awesome! Everybody is friendly and practically no kids Staff is always around, super nice and always helpful and patient.
