I'm a web developer but I make Godot games on the side.
I hope to one day create a cooperative game studio/tech company.
Follow me if you're interested in Godot and how to make the world a better place.

It's been really inspirational seeing the progress on your game, thanks for sharing some knowledge with the rest of us!

Hopefully the expansion port will have an add on for hand tracking and/or color pass through.
I can live without that stuff though. Maybe another version 6 years from now will have all that stuff out of the box.
I'm pretty happy that it'll be under 1000 too but hopefully it's closer to 700.

That makes sense, I hope you get one! 🤞

Oh duh you're right that it's Linux based, the bigger issue was x86 vs Arm processing.
I was thinking of how it has an Arm processor which allows it to run android APKs natively since they use Arm processing.
It uses FEX to run x86 windows and Linux apps.

Looks incredible as always!
Are there any barriers for bringing the game to the steam frame?
It looks like the steam frame is android based so I would think it wouldn't take as much work as a full windows port.
Hopefully you can get your hands on a dev kit to test it out!

It'd be sick if they work with Big Screen Beyond or something to keep producing lighthouses and knuckle controllers for the hyper enthusiast niche who want 0 compromises and price is less of a barrier.

I think the biggest issues are weight, price, and convenience related.
Inside out is the way to go for a standalone headset because of convenience but trying to make a standalone headset with inside out tracking also be lighthouse compatible would make the weight too large and price too high.

NEW: Valve is bringing Android apps to Steam. Not only can the Frame run side-loaded Android APKs, Valve will be inviting Android devs into its store.
Imagine what this means re: Google forced to crack open Android. Also: Meta Quest games are low-hanging fruit!

Valve is welcoming Android games into Steam
The Steam Frame is the start — but it could be tip-of-the-iceberg.

Yeah I agree with that statement I'm a socialist just like you.
I just think that the dominant human behaviors are determined by the systems we live in.

Yes that's what the stag hunt in game theory that I linked to talks about.
Human nature from what I've learned of anthropology, game theory, and history is variable it's not fixed towards greed or towards collaboration and the systems that we live in shape our behavior.

Yes that's what I was trying to say.
Pre civilization we had a society that promoted collaboration and if you were too greedy you'd be killed or exiled.
