[h3]Hi again everyone![/h3] We're back and we're looking as fancy as ever as we're finally ready to share that sweet release window of ours! You've probably noticed that we have given the Steam Store page an overhaul which will remain with us until launch. This means new videos, new screenshots and new store text. Phew! What do you think? We would love to hear your thoughts. But first, let's recap what we announced during the UploadVR Showcase! [h2]We're also launching on Quest 2[/h2] You who watched the UploadVR Showcase with us might also have heard we've decided to include the Oculus Quest 2 as one of our launch platforms. Some of you may already have guessed this, but we hope you're just as excited as us that we're finally joining the Quest family (because we know a lot of you have been asking for this for some time now ♥)!

We hear those are all the rage these days!). But that will probably not reach you all until later in December and we know you all are dying to see what we have in store, so in the meantime; Have some of our more [b]current PCVR screenshots[/b]. Hype!

Like 2022 soon![/h2] First of all, the quick facts and details: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35130380/ef6e6f9cf07399e908ad6d01596f9959385f4dff.png[/img] [h3][b]When?[/b] Very early 2022[/h3] [h3][b]Where?[/b] Steam for PC VR with Vive, Index or Rift, and Oculus Quest 2[/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35130380/ef6e6f9cf07399e908ad6d01596f9959385f4dff.png[/img] [h3]What happens next? [/h3] We are currently going through rigorous QA, fixing bugs and continuing to polish all the little things. Releasing on both PC VR and Oculus Quest 2 means a bigger potential player base, which in turn means we can keep updating and adding to the game for longer! In addition, we are put to more intense scrutiny when it comes to bugs and playability, ultimately leading to a better game for everyone. We consider this a real win-win. [h3]Localization & Accessibility[/h3] The game is extensively localized and can be played standing or sitting down, in big or small play spaces, lowering the threshold of entry for as many prospective players as possible. The game allows for teleportation, smooth locomotion, smooth and snap turn, all at adjustable speeds. Audio is highly encouraged, but not required! Languages available are, in alphabetical order: Arabic, Chinese (simplified and traditional), Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), Russian, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish.

Stickers? T-shirts? Mugs? What would you like to see? As always we're available both here on Steam and on our own Neat community Discord server and we're always listening, so don't be afraid to say hi!
