Lunar New Year Sale is LIVE
Steam started their Lunar New Year's Sale with a lot of pig-themed goodness. Aren't those chat emoji cute? For people looking to expand their game library, the most interesting feature is the discount of course! If you buy games for the equivalent of 30 Dollars (varying by region), you get 5 Dollars off. In case you are looking for some inexpensive game to top off your shopping basket, we can recommend RAINBOW REACTOR of course, hehhe ːsteamhappyː
At the moment, we are still working on some small fixes for the game, especially regarding some issues when playing on Oculus Rift. We'd also really like to do some testing on Windows Mixed Reality, but as long as we cannot get our hands on an HMD, the system will officially remain unsupported. Sorry for the inconvenience, we'll definitely keep an eye on the topic.
Also in regards to some of your questions, don't forget to have a look at the Game Manual in the Manual Section on our Steam Store page. It does answer some questions, for example how the mixing works exactly and how to leave a game in progress. Stay tuned for more, and have a happy Lunar New Year's Sale!
Last Days Of Discount ^_^
looks like our launch week is coming to an end, and with it, our launch discount! So far, sales have been okay-ish – as this is our first release on Steam, we really didn't know what to expect. Currently it seems like we'll be selling around 100 copies in the first week, after which we've been told, sales will fall steeply.
Of course more is always better and at the current rate, we will not reach minimum wage anytime soon, considering how much time we already put into developing Rainbow Reactor – but we know VR is still a small market and we just love this technology, so we'll happily keep going at full Steam [pun intended] with your support!
Currently we are working on separate highscore tables for each "shift", as we're hoping it will be fun to compare your results with your friends in more detail. Next up after that will be modifiers, which will surely bring a lot of variety to gameplay, but which are a bit harder to set up and especially fine-tune.
Also we want to make more localised language versions with new voice recordings, as we think subtitles in VR are terrible immersion-breakers. Since we need translations and voice talent for that, it's a bit costly though. If any of you would like to help us out with your native tongue, please don't hesitate to contact us! In order to test our language selection system, we'll probably release a German version first, as most of us are speakers of the language, coming from Germany and Austria originally.
So for now let me thank all of our "Early Adopters" and give heartfelt regards from the whole team! You guys can be sure that we're currently working out some ideas how we can offer you some special reward opportunities – stay tuned ːsteamhappyː

Welcome to the Rainbow Reactor!
While we're looking forward to the release on January 15th, 2019, we'd like to invite you to take a look around. Of course we have a trailer and screenshots, but there also is quite a bit of information on our Early Access release as well as a manual which has even more details on the game and our team.
We are planning to release the game at a base price of $9.99 in its Early Access stage, but there will be a huge discount in the launch week. So if you don't want to miss that, we'd be delighted if you put the game on your wishlist ːsteamhappyː
Happy Holidays,
the Rainbow Reactor Team
