VR Home; released today. Written by a 14 year old. Wow!
There's a new release, today, of a product called VR Home (for the Vive) and it's showing a lot of promise! I think that the most remarkable thing is that it was written by someone so young! It's still too new to tell just how good it is, but it's looking like a really good start with a solid "update/improvement" plan. At $8, I'll be finding out as soon as I get off work! Anyway, this is what was posted over at the r/vive reddit;
I'm 14, I just released VR Home submitted 5 hours ago by DandoverDeveloper | VR Home
For the past 7 months i've been working on this game. I had to quit my sport to make time for development, and spend all my birthday money, Christmas money and pocket money on assets. I only released it 2 minutes ago, but even just developing it has been a dream come true. I have generated hype, gained tons of experience, got to the front page of reddit and even got my gif posted on UNILAD Gaming. So whatever happens i'm still proud :) The game itself is a sandbox based around building your own homes. There is tons of features and fun things to do. I made an imgur gallery of MOST of the features here: http://imgur.com/a/WPg0v 90% of the money I earn from this will go back into it for more furniture, multiplayer, more emulators, more guns, custom model importing, steam environment exporting and more. This is the first build so there will be a few bugs, but if there is any gamebreaking bugs please send me a message. If you are confused on how things work, you can spawn the menu with the application menu on your left controller, and there will be tutorials in the information tab. You can ask me any questions about the game or about myself.
Edit; I'm told that I will be able to create custom shortcuts to launch my Steam games! I've been waiting for something to replace SteamVR for ages! Of course, once I do, it will close VR Home, so I will have to restart it after the game, but that's not much of an issue.
