"...And thus the small "embarrassment" of panda cubs and their kittens were overwhelmed by the sheer awesomeness of an invading 1970's Jupiter Toy Robot with a familiar catch phrase..."

I am a game developer at heart and building this scene was for me, a great opportunity to understand the possibilities and limitations of building and rendering massive scenes.
It was an interesting experience developing for Virtual reality, I learned a lot in the process and the journey alone was well worth the risk, confusion, research and sacrifice.
I look forward to sharing that experience on the forums in due time.

Before this submission I had made my last submission for the Render the Metaverse contest before the Round 2 Deadline on June 26th.

However that image was not uploaded and my post in the submissions page is empty because of an error in the upload (still missing)
I have now made this final submission, would it be possible to consider it for round 2 in the place of my previous submissions that didn't work because of an uploading error on the submissions page?

Also there were no guidelines/tutorials available about how to create the stereo cube map, and without any VR device to test with I was working practically blind.

Everything in my scene was built from scratch and it was great to have the opportunity to use octane for rendering.
It took 15 WIP tries and 3 incorrect submissions to get the image to submit correctly which could have been avoided had there been some information about how to output the file correctly.

Please let me know if it is possible to use this submission for round 2 and if allowed I could use this experience to post my workflow so as to help octane users who are not able to submit for the same reasons.
