Candidly, @RustmourneGame got one of the biggest responses from our last showcase. The demo's out now and worth playing if you are interested. I'll have my impressions of the demos for Rustmourne, @RiftedSkies (my arms are tired 🤣) and @PlayRAIDVR on UploadVR soon.
Multiple notable PC VR demos have recently dropped on Steam ahead of next week's Next Fest, including Rustmourne, The Rifted Skies, and Flat2VR's Studio's latest, RAID VR. Details here: uploadvr.com/rustmourne-the-…

I wasn't the biggest fan of Knights of Fiona's combat, but the story was quite good, so I'll be back in next week for the conclusion.
Knights of Fiona concludes its story with Chapter 6 on October 20 for Quest and PC VR: uploadvr.com/knights-of-fion…

A LOT has happened in the VR space these past few weeks. Steam Frame buzz, Meta’s new thing, banger VR mods, studios closing left and right. And here we are, working harder than ever on our own stuff. COVR is far from the only thing we’ve got cooking: - Zero Caliber 2 on PS VR2 is almost ready for release - A new Zero Caliber: Reloaded update is on the way, with modernized gameplay and visuals - We’re making progress on the backend foundations for Frostbite - And we’re getting ready to open up broader playtests Wishlisting COVR on either Quest or Steam is probably the single biggest help you can give us right now. Every wishlist genuinely helps! meta.com/experiences/covr/26… store.steampowered.com/app/4…

We’ve added Steam Frame support - available now in the latest #NoMansSky experimental build! Eye-tracked foveated rendering is supported and should also work on other compatible headsets, including Meta Quest Pro and Pimax Crystal. steamcommunity.com/app/27585…

Seeing a lot of this Frame-related frustration and I especially hate it for people who made the reservation queue only to get this follow up kick to the nuts. 😕
Bro this is fucking infuriating. I was so excited for the Frame, I got in the Reserve list, excpecting that I would be able to get it sooner rather than later and be one of the first to use the device and tell people how it is. And then *I see this.*

LAST CALL: I am publishing an article on UploadVR this week about spooky/Halloween themed updates for #VR games. If you know of any such content, comment below.
I'm compiling a list of Halloween/horror themed updates for #VR games for a near-future @UploadVR article. These can be easy to miss, so if you are a VR dev, drop a reply or shoot me a DM to let me know what you're cooking. Everyone else, please share to get the word out. 🎃

Hello Crystal Pro. Eye-tracked 60GHz streaming over the first 2x2 MIMO wireless link on a VR headset, with up to 6 Gbps and under 2ms of added latency.

Gatekeeping VR by calling people who experience motion sickness “not real VR gamers” is not the way to grow VR 👌
Replying to @RtoVR @CircuitLord
“For those who can handle it” Road to VR and UploadVR have always proven to not have any real VR gamers working over there at all 😂

VR hasn't delivered the true JRPG experience I've been craving & I'm starting to think it never will, but Ruinsmagus is probably the closest (excluding some dodgy mods of flat games I've tried). It's on Horizon+ now. Worth a look if you're subbed. meta.com/experiences/app/dev…

So it turns out, the ONLY way to get Meta Ray-Ban Display with prescription lenses in the UK is to go to the Ray-Ban store in London ONLY in-person. Spoke to Meta support and Ray-Ban support who confirmed this. That's INSANE.

Can someone who has rolled credits on Titanfall 2 in VR respond to this and let me know the mod holds up all the through?

Congrats to the folks @TinyFlockGame for the release of their sheeptastic game! May every fluffy baby get to green pastures safely over all the cliffs, as our Bogusia is the weird one out of her own flock she's happy to herd all the sheeps instead 🐏 All the wooly wishes to you!

There aren’t enough “f*ck with your head” games in VR. Hinge was ahead of its time.
Shil is a trippy psychological horror puzzle game coming to Quest on October 8, with a Steam release also planned for a later date. Details here: uploadvr.com/shil-is-a-mind-…

Had a good time in @DungeonsVR Tomb Extraction and after so many hours, it was refreshing to do something a little new. Full article on UploadVR.
