Greetings, pilot! I'm happy to announce that Hunternet Starfighter now has VR support! Last month I began work on VR support for the first time with a Quest 2 I purchased for the holidays. I wasn't sure what to expect as I was not a VR player before this. Simply put, Hunternet VR is amazing! It is now my preferred way to fly by far. I even had to add an in-game clock to the ship's HUD just to avoid losing track of time while in VR. The sense of scale and of inhabiting an actual spaceship has blown me away! If you are a VR pilot, I highly recommend checking out Hunternet Starfighter in VR. I'm really happy I took the time to support VR and I look forward to hearing about your experience in Hunternet VR. Phase 1 of VR is now complete and you can read the changes since the last devlog below. Phase 2 (the final VR phase) will come later when I begin work on a walkable 3D hangar. In the meantime the 2D main menu has been replaced in VR by a new VR-only main menu. There really is no substitute to seeing for yourself in VR, but you can get some idea of what it is like in this new video I just posted: [previewyoutube=7tDDUSZgCCY;full][/previewyoutube] If you'd like to fly with us I highly recommend joining the official [url=https://discord.gg/hunternet]Discord community[/url].
