Thanks!!! Oh gosh, I doubt a Quest version will ever happen. It would be like having to create an entirely new world, and it would seriously complicate and hinder any further development on the PC version. Maybe for my next world 😉

It was my pleasure to chat with @kentbye.com alongside @starheart.bsky.social on Voices of VR Podcast about Natura's Queendom! I dive into the backstory of how Natura came to be while Starheart shares her story about the creation of the music for the world. Enjoy!✨

everyone should check out Ders' new world! it won the best art world prize at Raindance this year, but also when Break won the two years ago for our Equilibrium show, it was in part because of an early form of this space hosting one of the sets. it's so much better now!

Yesterday, I saw the Rhythmic Roots (#RHYTHMICROOTS) show in VRC. It was an experience that won the live performance award from Raindance. Unfortunately, it was a limited-time thing and this was their last performance. So I feel bad saying this now, but it was one of the best things I've seen in VR.

It seems maybe @bastkaerun.bsky.social hasn't posted about it here, but he is among several photographers in @vrchat.com featured in person in #VPS2025 in Kanezawa, Japan, until the 27th of July. I'll admit I'm making this post here to capture the attention of a couple important folks in this scene

Once I'm back from vacation I'd like to make it public after making a few small additions. I think it would be good to push it out there soon, I can always do more stuff later.
