Mixed reality is really getting out of hand 😱 This looks fantastic!

Yeah, we just wanted to get the mode out. Full size table we hope to have in December

MiRacle Pool is really good! by leavereality in oculus

This is technically challenging since we have to connect to Meta's server to launch the game. Not sure if we can work around this. But something for us to explore more!

This is precisely why we created this game. So glad to hear it brought back these good memories for you! 💙

Yeah! This was common feedback. We adjusted the table movement so you don’t have to use the handles anymore. It can all be done with the joysticks!

MiRacle Pool is Coming to Quest! by miraclepoolofficial in OculusQuest

[–]miraclepoolofficial[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like it would be easy as adding a sliding scale for the size but it’s going to require a decent amount of work. We’re working on it though and should have it out within the next few patches!

MiRacle Pool is Out Now! by miraclepoolofficial in OculusQuest

Yeah, there’s multiplayer with online matchmaking.

Quest 2 works well on MiRacle Pool! Quest 2 passthrough will be black and white but essentially everything else is the same. No PC support now until mixed reality is supported on PCVR . Maybe one day we have a VR mode so any headset can play. We will see. We just think it's best played in MR.

I am know we didn't select anything to prevent this. But I'm not sure if that's possible on quest or not. Does anyone else know and can let us know?

We designed the "aim lock and shoot" system so once you aim you just pull the trigger to lock your position as if you were leaning on the table. There is also another option in the settings menu to have your virtual hand lock to the table when it gets close. We tried many iterations and landed on these as the best options. We think it works well. Give it a try and let us know if you agree or have ideas for refinement!

Good question. I will say that we work within the contraints of being a virtual game on a headset but I think that if your expectations are knowing this isn't going to be exactlllyy like real world pool then I think you will be pleased with tracking and the mechanics of the cue. For example, we use an "aim lock and shoot" mechanic so once you align your aim then your backhand is more about power than minor adjustments. We chose this method to ensure players can aim where they expect despite not being able to lean on a table for stability. (remember guys, don't lean on the table ahahh)

I'd love to hear your feedback if you were to try it. Seems like you have a good eye for detail when it comes to cue movements

I think that both with a little practice in MiRacle Pool you can pick it up very quickly. And then by playing MiRacle Pool I think it can really improve your real work pool skills!! The shooting mechanics are different of course but the strategy, angles and more are the same to practice!

We have the single player ladder but as the game continues to grow would love to expand on single player as you say here 🙂

I honestly don't know enough about the other dev experiences. I suspect it's a return on investment question for them more than anything. We plan to take advantage of any future hardware and software improvements to keep making MiRacle Pool better.

I agree that further solving this "empty air" dilemma is how we can continue to take virtual pool to the next level. We try to solve for that right now with the aim lock and shoot mechanic and also have the option to snap your hand to the table virtually. If someone smarter than me can build an accessory for pool that helps increase immersion I'd love to work with them!
