Early Access Update 0.2.20
It's here: The New Tutorial!
We created a completely new Tutorial with little tasks to ease new players in the complex controls of Holoception and added a new Calibrator at the start screen.
On top of that, we simplified the progression system:
- You don't need to pick up Fragments and Sandwiches anymore, just walk over them. - No need to print your weapons anymore, just grab them from the arsenal to buy them.
Additionally, many improvements have been made on the calibration and camera system to improve the player's experience.
We’d love to hear your feedback!

Early Access Update 0.2.19
New Update is Live! [0.2.19]
We have been very busy this week improving Holoception based on all the feedbacks and reviews we received!
We focused mostly on fully Reworking the First Person Locomotion and we refactored the Camera System accordingly.
The Vignetting System has been improved and is now Smooth and more Subtle.
The Combat has been improved as well. Now enemies can lose their props if you hit or shoot those directly
We also fully reworked the Bindings for the Vive Wands. We replaced most click actions to Gestures to make it feel a lot more natural and responsive. See Video below to get a better overview.
A few Halloween Props are also part of this update :)
Crashes due to the Physics issues and Enemies Glitching have now been fixed.
Overall physics has been improved and many smaller bugs and issues fixed. See #changelog for more details.
We would really love to get your feedback on the new Locomotion System so we can improve it further!
**0.2.19** --------- Features and Improvements -------- - FULLY REWORKED 1ST PERSON LOCOMOTION - Refactored and Improved Camera System and Locomotion System - Snapping of Camera now is based on where the player is and looks - No more needed to stay at the center (Careful with your surroundings) - Smooth Vignette effect for zooming/rotating/moving - Vive Wands: Fully Reworked Inputs (see new boards) - Vive Wands: Use swipe Gesture to Zoom in and Out - Dropped props from enemies now rescale to the player scale - Can now detach enemies props (hats, weapons) by shooting or hitting them - Facial hair (breaths and moustaches provide less protection) - HALLOWEEN Props: Pumpkin Hat and Scythes (only in Simulator mode) - Delay with Loading Ring on Wrist Watch to prevent opening menu by accident

Early Access Update 0.2.18
New Update is Live! The past 24 hours have been very intense for us, we didn't sleep much...
We really want Holoception to be a great experience and we carefully listen to every feedback to improve the game.
We reworked the 1st Person Locomotion according to many feedbacks we received. (more changes to come)
In addition we added full Strafe locomotion working in 3rd Person as well. This can be switched in the Tutorial and in the Home by just walking on a platform. (See below)
The Menu is now also accessible with the left menu button (Oculus Touch, Index (B Button), Vive Wands) as well as the Left Wrist Watch Button in the game. The first waves in the First level is now easier. Holding 2 handed guns is easier in 1st Person and should feel more natural.
More details below:
--------- Features -------- - Reworked 1st Person Locomotion (Better Strafing and Turning, Step Rotation) - New Strafe Locomotion mode for 3rd Person - Can choose Locomotion mode in Tutorial and Home (Directional/Strafe) - More weapons to test in the Tutorial - Can also open Holoception Menu with controller menu button (and wrist watch) (B Button for the Index)
--------- Bug fixes and Improvements -------- - Baseball Bat unlocked by default when leaving Tutorial - Holding 2 handed guns is easier in 1st Person - First Wave of enemies is easier - Easier and Better grabbing of enemies - Easier Grabbing of props in Holsters - Easier To Zoom and Rotate Camera with Vive Wands - Reactivating arms collisions correctly after dropping an object
--------- Known issues -------- - 2 handed weapons clip when too close to the head in 1st person - Enemies can rarely be jittery when grabbed - 1st Person Locomotion still needs some work and Smooth Rotation is coming
