This is very early access and "fans only". I will recommend this experience only for those who want to support the dev.

There is much potential here, does remind of Stormland. But there is much need for optimization. Using Index res 130% with on oc'ed RTX 3090 I can just barely run the game in 40 fps and 80 Hz, but motion smoothing is my friend.

Index res 130% is rather blurry though, I'd say you'll really need an RTX 4090, 5080 or 5090 for the current build. I ended up using Ultra settings, but lowered shadows to medium, lowered antialiasing to low, reduced GI to high, and set post processing to high - remaining settings were set to ultra. The 120GB install size is no joke, and the download is 50GB.

I also tried to good old Rift CV1, because the SDE can make blurry graphics look more sharp. But Rift CV1 with Meta OpenXR seemed more stuttery than Index with Steam OpenXR.

Then again, the game is really not worth spending time on in its current state - but if you care to support a dev working on creating a grand VR experience, I'll recommend the Secrets of Antares - also due to its low price.

Btw, Index controls work, but poorly - clearly the dev never tested the experience with Index controllers. Just the slightest touch of the Index grip button activates the jetpack and kicks you forward with great speed. And there is no button for the main menu.

Would be nice with a button to hover, just straight up in the air.

Also DLSS should be supported. If there's an app on the planet most in need of DLSS, I think Secrets of Antares could be the one ;-)

With many animated alien life forms this experience could be awesome, but right now it's a dead world and more like a tech demo.

It looks great but i could only get 1 FPS with a 4090, hope it gets fixed up.
