After some requests I made a video to try to explain my project - a surreal VR explorer - kinda...

I hope you VR gamers like it and since it's in development it would be great to read what u think is cool and what to add, etc. Also if you play these kind of games. What is it that you seek when you play VR?

Is releasing a demo for a VR game a bad idea?

Hi all PCVR gamers,

I am researching on how good idea is to release a demo?

My personal opinion is that if the demo is not simply "amazing" and polished, it can actually be negative for the upcoming game. It can put down the interest of a game that could have potential but the demo was bad - so players lost interest on that one - moved to the next one.

But my opinion is one thing - what I am interested is to hear yours.

What if the demo is good? Don't you feel you want to purchase the game right away but oops! it's not yet released - then the momentum is lost.

Looking forward to read your opinions.

Thanks!

Surreal VR explorer in the making...

Hey everyone! I’m a solo dev working on my first project, Pools of the Deep VR - an atmospheric exploration VR game set in surreal spaces filled with water and eerie pools...

The Steam page is now live. If it looks interesting to you, I would really appreciate your wishlist.

The game’s still in development, and I’d love to hear your ideas!

Show my game and get some opinion - is this allowed?

Hi VR gamers. Would like to show you my project to be released on steam. Would like to hear your take on it and if you are interested in that kind of game.

As I dont want to break any rules, is it possible to post a trailer/screenshots/gameplay and ask you VR gamers some questions? is there a particular day to do this?

Thanks in advance!

Some questions for VR enthusiasts...

I’m making a VR game focused on eerie surreal spaces, inspired by PoolsVR. It started as a walking sim, but I added light action and simple puzzles to keep the experience engaging without turning it into an FPS. A bow felt better than guns for the mood.

The focus is sharp visuals, atmosphere, and presence. I may add a pure exploration mode with no combat.

If you like the vibe, a wishlist would help a lot.

Need your opinion on my game project

Hello PCVR gamers.

I’m a solo dev working on my first project, Pools of the Deep VR - an atmospheric exploration VR game set in surreal spaces filled with water and eerie pools :)

The Steam page is now live. If it looks interesting to you, I would really appreciate your wishlist.

What do you think of having light combat with bow and arrow in these surreal spaces? Do you want a purely liminal game (walking simulator) or something that has those surreal elements but you also get to do some shooting, and look for stuff?

I added some images. If you want to see the trailer, take a look at the steam page. I'm not pasting the link as I fear could get banned :)

Thanks a lot for your support.
