1.4 Release

Zephyrus
A downloadable game

We are pleased to announce that the version 1.4 of the Zephyrus VR Pre-Alpha demo has been updated with four major new features!

  • ONE APK
    We've merged the data from Oculus Quest 1 and Quest 2 and put them in one apk so users don't get confused. It automatically detects which device you're on.
  • DYNAMIC SHADOW FOR QUEST 1 TOO
    We have also implemented dynamic shadows for Oculus Quest 1. There are some limitations unlike the Quest 2 version, but it helps the player to better interpret the spatial position of moving objects, arriving creatures or Avatar companions and also improves the ambient atmosphere a bit.
  • AMBIENT LIGHTING
    We debut our first experiment, which maps ambient lighting conditions to avatars and creatures. To our delight, this is not even a problem on Oculus 1! This has opened up a lot of possibilities for us, in terms of gameplay possibilities and atmosphere creation...
  • LANGUAGE LOCALIZATION
    We have implemented the language localization system. When the demo is launched, there are currently 12 languages to choose from. Of course, the current function of translations is to test the system, so bugs can easily occur. Any feedback on these errors would be appreciated, whether they be functional, text break or language correctness.


We thank you for any feedback you can give here:
