Quest release and poll result.
🕑 Added 2021-05-13 09:30:39 +0000 UTCDear patrons,
We are happy to annonce that we have finally managed to make ComeCloser run on Quest 1 and 2. We had to make some hard choices of course... but we are quite satisfied with the result so far. Bringing Vanessa and Lalago wherever you want really is a game changer.
Here are the differences between PC and Quest versions:
- complete rework of the lighting in all scenes,
- complete rework of the VR input system (you should not see any change),
- rework of the environments, with simpler effets and less vegetation and details,
- dynamic hair have been replaced by static hairstyles,
- no cloth at all... which is sad! We will try and add some kind of clothes in the future.
At the end of the day, we believe that ComeCloser is now one of the most graphically advanced adult games for Quest. On the other hand, we don't reach 72 fps yet... Let's say it's a good start!
We also have made many non-destructive optimizations that will only enhance the PC version and allow more frames per seconds. Lovely!
Now the Quest version is on rails, we are back to the core. First of all, thank you very much for your participation on the latest poll! We are now able to work exactly on what you want first, which is great for all of us. And don't worry if your subject of choice is not in the top of the road map right now, it will come eventually.
Ambiant sounds and moaning/breathing are long overdue, and grabbing the character for more interaction will be awesome. We also have some secret additions of our own so... let's stop writing this post and get back to work!
We will try to have a new version before the end of Jun.

Hand tracking for the quest would be an amazing feature. Really would make it a whole new game😍

We can't wait to work on hand tracking... But we have some other features to implement first! I think it will come at the end of the summer, not before.

walking and linear rotation will be in the next version, currently in the test phase and due in a few days ^^
also hand tracking support for the quest version would be really cool
joystick locomotion is really needed

Where or how do I find the quest version?
Mr. X
Well, I might suggest that you use a kind of general guideline on content, maybe 40% of new content for PC can be ported to quest and 60% can be content that isn’t portable?That way you avoid the trap of only adding content to PC that can be ported to quest? I agree you have to strike a balance, but I trust you guys to find that balance. 🤓
Ben Dum
That's very true. But we will also need to be careful for the future content, because it is tempting to choose content that easily fits on Quest.As a rule of thumb, we decided that if porting the content from PC to Quest is easy, then we might head in the wrong way.
Mr. X
In a way working on a quest version benefits the PC version because it kind of forces you to constantly examine optimizations. 👍
