VR Super Jam

Thanks! I didn't actually build in a movement system because there's nothing for the player to do besides interact with the three flames. Do you think it would it have been better if I had put in a movement system, but put also up barriers to keep them from leaving the starting area?

Hey, it was a good experience overall! I like how the flame looked and the dust effect. It's a very nice job for the first VR jam.

Initially, I thought nothing was happening, like the statues would light up again and again so I thought it was under some loop. But later realized it was part of the experience.
I have HTC Vive, and my laptop has a 1060 GTX graphic card, it was slightly laggy for me, were you using real-time lighting?
Half-life Alyx works perfectly fine so I guess you need to optimize your app a bit more.

Thanks!

The flame effects were all from a really great free unity asset called Procedural Fire, if you want to check it out.

And yeah I used real-time lighting. I'm still pretty new to all this, so do you know if real-time lighting works for VR apps if it's optimized well enough, or is it generally just too performance heavy?

I couldn't get it to work on Oculus Quest 2 airlink. On keyboard I could move, but I couldn't start the game. Edit: got to work with steam VR. Nice visuals.

Were you able to move your hands around? To start the game you have to touch the flame in the center. I probably should have made that more clear.
