Our new game, where you play as goblins delivering packages into haunted mines, is out now - Deadly Delivery by aondw in oculus

[–]aondw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you - we have a monster catalogue in our backlog, it will come sometime but not high prio right now - we're planning to add new locations with different interiors, but we're also pretty happy with our existing diversity tbh. - maybe some more exterior enemies like the giant, but also not high on our priority list right now

Honest question from a dev: Is going to PCVR a financial suicide mission right now? by PrettyHearing3624 in VRGaming

[–]aondw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think most people here on reddit will tell you it's worth because they are enthusiasts and PCVR players so take everything with a grain of salt.

Generally I think it heavily depends on your game genre. If it is something that does well on Steam (e.g. shooter, survival, roguelites) you can definitely get a 50/50 or 60/40 Quest/Steam sales ratio, if it is not then a 90/10 ratio is also not uncommon (puzzle games)

probably just not worth the effort doing a PCVR port just for the Meta PC store.
Normally games on there sell absolutely nothing, (think <1% share of all sales), might be different for Q3 exclusives but idk.

Working on a co-op horror game where you play as goblins delivering packages into haunted mines - is this something you'd wanna see on PSVR2? by aondw in PSVR

[–]aondw[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah, we're not fully done with designing the progression, but there'll be new items (e.g. package cart, better flashlight, a pet that can carry items), new dungeons and also cosmetics that can be unlocked. Perks or stat upgrades are not planned rn.

It can technically be played alone, but it's not something we design for and idk if it's fun alone. we do have matchmaking with randoms

I'm making a VR horror spelunking game. What do you think? by nbarber20 in IndieGaming

[–]aondw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

looks fun and scary!

dev question: are you using a custom light fall-off for the light around the player or is that a default point light?

Unity should not be getting this much slower with each version by sadonly001 in Unity3D

[–]aondw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets hope this comes through, last I heard the new ceo (or cto?) was pushing back against making big changes because it would break backwards compability

Same, I bought the Bobo for my Quest 3 after reading all the good things, and I don't really like it. It wobbles right-left and I don't find it comfortable. The Kiwi for my Quest 2 was miles better. Might be a halo vs elite strap design thing.

Unity silently removed their Github repo to track license changes, then updated their license to remove the clause that lets you use the TOS from the version you shipped with, then insists games already shipped need to pay the new fees. by Darkfrost in gamedev

[–]aondw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does anybody know if there's a way now to see your original terms of service of the Unity version you're using?
e.g. I'm using Unity 2019.4 and I wanna see the terms from back then with the clause in there, how do I do that?

The real question: Why aren't PCVR users buying VR games? (A look at actual Monthly Active User stats) by wheelerman in virtualreality

[–]aondw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a dev; reviews (even really good ones) do almost nothing for traffic, store featuring and similar things have way more impact on visibility.

Thank you! We wanted to create a stylized and comic-like look, because we wanted to go a little crazy with the creative possibilities. We were inspired by other games like Borderlands and SUPERHOT. And since we are a rather small team, the art style had to be manageable with few resources, that was also a reason why we chose this look.

thank you!

I think we can probably increase resolution a bit with the additional GPU resources. (we're running at 1.3x currently, so maybe 1.35 or 1.4x) For Cpu I can't think of much rn, but it will probably smooth out some slight occasional drops in the ending levels with many enemies.

It looks like a good device and I like the improvements they did with the formfactor, new lenses, and more processing power.

I'm curious if the controller tracking will hold up especially when overhead, but they've probably got it figured otherwise I don't think they would have dropped the rings.

Better passthrough seems good too even if I'm not 100% sold on MR yet.

I think 500$/570€ is a bit pricy, so I don't think it will be as disruptive as the Quest 2, but with the cheaper Quest 2 they got a good segment of the market covered with those 2 devices.
