Listing Oculus Quest as its own platform

It could be really helpful for VR content discovery if we could mark our apps and .apk packages as being for the Oculus Quest instead of for Android. This would also improve some of the automatic summaries (e.g. currently Itch adds “for Android” to our RealFit app and packages show an Android icon which may be a bit confusing).

Although technically the Oculus Quest OS is based on Android I don’t think this is necessarily something that most users are aware of and if someone is searching for Android content they are probably looking for content that will run on a phone or tablet.

This is a small selection of apps on Itch.io that could benefit from this:

I think there may currently be around 40 or more apps in Itch that could benefit from this.

Thanks for any consideration!

Just to let you know: Your links have gotten messed up.

As for your idea: As somebody who has no expert knowledge on the matter and doesn’t own VR hardware of any kind that still sounds like a useful and (relatively) easy update for itch.io.

Don’t expect something too soon, though - the Among Us people are probably still swamping support…

thanks, fixed the listing :)
