Do Windows Store version has any difference from Steam version?

[VisualDima]

I have a Samsung Odyssey WMR headset and I have Steam version of the game. It plays good, but throwing is very anaccurate (it because of disadvantages of WMR controllers tracking system, I presume). So I wonder, if Windows Store version has some differences with Steam version. Maybe some additional interpolations to make throwing with WMR controllers more precise etc.?

There aren't any differences that would influence that matter.
The easiest way of throwing objects in VR is pushing motion instead of your standard irl throwing ;)

I heard that some games from Microsoft Store already have haptic feedback and some have different controls from the steam version when played on wmr.
Can I consider Superthot vr to be exactly the same on both stores?

It will have some slight differences because of the different controllers. Also - Windows Store version has cloud saves.

Thanks Sandra!
I'm still wondering where's the best place to buy games for WMR right now.
I rather have all my games on steam and the steam prices are lower than the Microsoft Store at my country, also the steam have SS options, but I don't know how much performance and compatibily (less crashes) there will be a Steam VR game compared to a Native Windows Store Game launched directly from the cliffhouse.
As I'll be running on a GTX 970 I'm really seeking for the most optimized way to play the games :)

windows store version obviously has less overhead. but if you are going to have steam running in the background it doesnt matter anyways.

I'm sorry to bother you but it seems like whenever I run superhot VR it seems to be stuck on a black screen,I can tell it's glitching because when the little shift tab thing pulls up for steam it goes back down I can still see it there I don't know if there's any way to fix it I've tried deleting save files and things like that but I've saved it on a different storage device PLZ HELP THANKS

I have both versions, I think mine Microsoft Store verison got something corrupted once and it got broken, it didn't started at all, I had to delete and download it again 'cause they don't have that "verify integrity" feature that Steam has.
Try that maybe.

About other differences in case you are curious, I think that Steam version runs better but it feels like the physics is somewhat different when comparing both versions, sometimes on the Steam version I feel like the "ragdoll" of the enemies fly a little too much, more than I was expecting, while I don't have that feeling on the MS Store version, it doesn't affect gameplay because it's only the flying dead body of the enemies.
One thing that annoys me A LOT on the MS Store version is that at every restart and/or between levels if feel like they try to recenter you but do something wrong, so the environment is always rotating, I mean you can start one level facing the west, fail, restart and you would be looking at the same place IRL but your game world would put you facing east, I haven't got that on the Steam version.

Just as a bonus, Arizona Sunshine is also waaaaaay better on Steam vs MS Store, I have both versions too!
Space Pirate Trainer is fine on MS Store! I haven't felt the need to buy it twice.

TL.DR. Wait for a sale and grab the Steam Version!
