(4/4) I don't want Disembodied to just be a tech demo of a good idea. I want it to be a great game in it's own right. This takes time. I'm only 1 guy, so please bear with me.

(3/4) I have some back end stuff to sort out, and after that I will make some levels for a playtest. Then it will basically be graphics, sound, level design and story left to do. I hope to get most of that done this year, and release in the first half of next year.

(2/4) I now have most of the gameplay elements done and optimized, and I'm really pleased with how it's come out. I think it feels great to play, and getting the physics right has changed the kind of gameplay and interactions that are possible.

(1/4) It's been a tough few months. I've had a few things to deal with including my cat dying suddenly (RIP Kiki). So, as always, everything is taking longer than expected.

The good news is that I'm pretty much done with the experimental things that take a long time.

Big thanks to @rufftalkvr.bsky.social for including Disembodied on the Gaming Showcase.
I still find it really cringey to watch, but Kiki insisted we were in the video.

I mean at least they've done something, but agree it's probably not enough. Here's some other ideas-
-Let them cut the chicane 3 times.
-Turn the lights off in the tunnel.
-You have to do 1 lap backwards.
-Reverse grid car swap (cars stay the same but drivers are reverse, so Max in a williams)

I found the option. Apparently it's something they are testing and not all users get it. Which makes as much sense as I've come to expect from meta.

My quest just spoke to me!
As I took it off and plugged it in, it said "Battery 11% charged".
Can't get it to do it again.

I guess just a ring on your thumb and index would be enough for most experiences. It's going to be a very hard sell though. Especially with different ring sizes. I hope they have enough enterprise customers to make something of it.

They also need to make it optional, not required. My phone is old and no longer supports the app, so I can't even pair my pro controllers.
Then again. In the extremely long list of things meta need to do, this is the least of my worries.

Can I pair my controllers without needing an app on my phone yet?

Headsets were subsidized before horizon worlds came along. I'm sure they do it to have hold on the market. It's just a shame they are single handily killing the market by being so incredibly bad at everything, and won't listen to people in the market telling them than no-one wants horizon worlds.

I've been playing this in closed beta. As a fan and competitive player of Echo Arena, I will say this is not a replacement (at least not yet). However, if you want Gorilla Tag mixed with Rocket League, or just a place to hang out with lots of other cool things to do, then check this out.

2 questions.
1. If you touch something with the tip of your finger, does it feel like the feedback is at the tip (not where the ring is)?
2. This is a prototype right? So eventually the glove part won't be needed?

I got a ADHD assessment in about a year... after specifically asking for an autism diagnosis (the 5th time). Guess what. They referred me to the autism people and I'm now in a 4 year waiting list. Mental health treatment is appalling.

It definitely helps, with so many things. It can be hard to realize it until you find yourself in a situation where it REALLY helps. It takes practice though. I'm autistic and it has changed my life in so many ways. The self awareness has led to many other positive changes.

Same for me. I'm working really hard to make it part of my every day routine. Forcing myself to do some exercises and meditate after my daily walk (which is now routine).
