I've never tested with the 3S Model, and you're the first person to report a problem with this device. Not many things usually cause this type of issue on the Meta Quest, so I'm not exactly sure what to suggest you try to see if it works, other than checking that its storage isn't full and that it's updated to the latest system version. If this problem is happening with the purchased version, you can either initiate a refund request yourself or ask me here, and I can contact the Itch.io team to have them issue your refund.

What process are you using to install it? Does it show any error? Are you used to installing APKs on your Quest? Do other APKs install normally? 

The simplest way to install is by using the "Install APK file from folder on computer" option in the top right of SideQuest, but it’s necessary for both the Meta Quest and PC to be properly set up.

To install these file manager apps that allow direct installation on the device, you first need to install them APK using a method like SideQuest, which is notably the easiest to use. You can find support on SideQuest Suport or through tutorial and troubleshooting videos.

Hello, you can follow a tutorial on how to install APKs on your Meta Quest. You don’t need to buy anything to try this—you can use the game demo or another app. I suggest using SideQuest, as it has the most tutorials and guides on how to use it to install applications.

You can install it directly if you’ve sideloaded a file manager app. You can try with the demo first. There are many tutorials available, and there are different ways to do it.

No. Sorry.

Can you try it from the browser?

Please provide more information and, if possible, screenshots.

You can follow this tutorial — it's a bit old, but it's extremely similar. If you can't manage it, let me know.
https://itch.io/t/67604/how-to-get-a-steam-key-from-your-itchio-purchase

Hello, from what you described your controller must have ghost triggering, you can try playing with just 1 controller or with hand tracking . What device do you have? 

It is not compatible with Quest 1. I have requested a refund for you, and you should now wait for the email from Itch.io. If you purchase a Meta Quest 2 or higher, please buy it again. Thank you for your interest.

There is a button to claim the key and then activate it on Steam

Can you try running the game directly from the directory without launching it through Steam and let me know if it works? You need to open it via JoiLab.exe.

Hello, what issues are you having with Steam? At the moment, it's not something I can promise, but it's something I'd like to do in the future.

You can join Discord and message me privately.

You can push the thumbstick forward to start teleporting (for long distances) and hold the thumbstick button + move the controller for short distances (small movements).

The game is designed for Meta Quest, and the mobile version for Android should be released soon.

I have a report from someone who managed to activate the key and lives in Germany. I'm not 100% sure it worked for them, just a "both worked thx" referring to the game and soundtrack keys. However, I don’t recommend proceeding with this if it’s considered a crime in your country, unless there’s an exception for games acquired via keys.

Follow the tutorial on the initial map. Use the menu (Y or B button) to access the chapters or free mode.

The Standalone page is different here on Itch.

Since you had already made a donation before, I’ve sent a link to your email that allows you to download the Standalone version. You can use the Steam Key to play the Desktop Mode version as soon as it launches next month.

Hello, wmerritt72. You made a donation of $7, the minimum donation amount is $1. This is the demo page for the game, the game has not been released yet. The game will be sold for $15 on Itch.io and Steam. I'm not sure if Itch.io allows you to pay only the difference after the game is released, but in any case, I can provide a refund if you regret making this donation thinking it was the full game.

It’s not about the height; it’s the position of the hand relative to the position of the penis, from the base of the shaft to the tip.

Approximately $13 at launch, a price below the average for adult VR games released on Steam in 2024. On Steam, the game’s price varies depending on the country, as prices are localized. On Itch.io, I can’t localize the price, so depending on your country, it may be better to get the Steam version.

The JOI LAB MOBILE and JOI LAB PC versions will only be released in the future, after the VR version launches. They will have a lower price since they will be simpler versions of the game without all the interactions, which are the game’s main feature.

At the bottom right, you control the camera, and at the top right, there's a button to open the menu. You can't do the same things as in VR, but you can click on FREE MODE and, in the animations tab, view some of the demo animations. Scene 1 also works; to answer "yes," you need to move the camera up and down. Most of the other menu options also work, such as removing clothes or adjusting the audio.

Having the player's body would significantly delay development. It's something I’d like to include in a sequel or in another game.

Which features would you like the game to have?

没问题，您可以关注我，这样在发布 JOI LAB MOBILE 时就会收到通知。感谢您对游戏的关注。

这是一个VR游戏，需要有VR设备，游戏名字里有VR。未来将会推出JOI LAB MOBILE和JOI LAB PC版本。
It’s a VR game, so you need to have a VR device. The game has VR in its name. In the future, there will be JOI LAB MOBILE and JOI LAB PC versions.

This is a demo version; the full version will be available in November. The demo is just a preview; it does not include additional maps, features only one sexual position per pose (with poses separated based on your real-world position for greater comfort), does not include all mini-games, and the story mode is limited to only half of the first scene (Introduction 1/2) and the free mode (which allows you to choose different poses and positions).

There isn't a mobile phone version yet, but the game will be released for phones at some point in the future after the default release, only for Android. The game's .apk is intended to be installed on Meta Quest 2/3/Pro (VR devices).

It's a bug, it's been fixed now, but it will only be included in the next demo version.

Hello, check if the controller has any ghost input issues. If it has a defect, that might prevent teleportation. Teleportation only starts after pushing the thumbstick forward for 0.65 seconds to avoid accidental activation. Does this problem happen with both of your controllers? Did you test the PCVR or Android VR version? If you’re using SteamVR, it’s possible to configure a deadzone in settings, which helps with defective controllers. The game was extensively tested on Quest 2 and 3.

It’s possible to move the camera by holding the thumbstick, but it can be tiring for long distances.

With this report, there are now 3 people experiencing this issue. It affects a minority of players, but I will investigate what might be happening to fix it in a future version. Thank you for the feedback.

It is possible to start the game through SteamVR even if it’s an executable, by keeping SteamVR open and launching the game. However, the ideal is to start it directly through Steam.
