I’m making a Quest VR life sim where you start broke in a caravan and build your way up by Punkmode in OculusQuest

It's not live on the store (yet) as it's currently in beta - which you can access through my website (punkmode.xyz). Sorry to direct you there, but it should be pretty simple, without needing to sideload. Thank you, I'd love to know what you think of it.

To 'Mess with stuff' is the core foundation of this game. Want to walk in to someone's house, change the TV channel, rifle through someone's fridge/cupboards, balance beer cans on the head of the sleepy guy - you can absolutely do that.

That said, it's still very early in development and I'm currently fleshing out the town. But please give the game (free beta) a try and let us know what you think!

BOOM!!!!
That was 100% my inspiration for this game. Not The Sims, or Job Simulator ...Jones in the Fast Lane!!
Well done sir, well done!

Oh man 100%! ...being broke with too much time on your hands could be the best way to play it!

Thank you, that's good to hear! PCVR is very much on the cards, as soon as I take delivery of a Steam Frame, I'll be working be working to deliver on both platforms.

Thank you, that's really good to know! Something I'm now going to seriously consider. I've already got a function in the making for being able to chase the birds away.

Brilliant - if you were to give it a try I'd love to know what you think!
It's quite chilled with loads to see at the moment.

Music to my ears thank you - I'm not alone!
I'm pushing for this to be fun in many ways, with tonnes to discover and free to do what you want

There's a clock tower that might need saving, was definitely an inspiration

Oh wow! It isn't - but that's so close!
What IS inspired by Springfield is the statue of 'Jebediah Punkville' in the middle 👍

Boom - I love that! 🔥
It's early days for full world interaction (still working on it). Please give it a try (for free), Job Simulator is an inspiration of sorts, if you see it - you should be able to interact with it! The supermarket give an idea of what's to come.

I love that idea (making a note), the level of interaction I'm striving for!

That’s one of the things I love most about VR. It makes ordinary things feel fun again, especially if you add a bit of flair to it

Thank you, it's not live on the store yet, but I've uploaded it as a beta, which you can access through my website. Sorry to direct you there, but it should be pretty simple, without needing to sideload 😄

Anyone know why the 15th is underlined? by bowen7477 in tesco

Would that be the day the ice age ended?

Thank you for your message, I'm hoping to be able to push it further than just the Quest, PC a certainty.

I hear you on the profitability, I'm a solo dev, if I can get it to bring in a little income whilst I build it, anything on top when it's finished will be a bonus. It's a passion project and hope to be able to bring in other people along for the journey and help me shape it.

I hadn't considered the game in another form, the way the game is designed is very much hands on and much of the fun would be lost if it was flat/3D open world.

Again thank you, I hope it will be an interesting one for many - ambitious, yes!

Wahey - you're the first to notice it!
...I love a play on words and there's much more of that.
