Hey Everyone,

We just released our new game SNOW SCOUT on SteamVR Early Access and to celebrate this, we're having a bunch of discounts - A 10% launch discount for Snow Scout and a whopping 80% discount for both Rainbow Reactor and its soundtrack. The latter now also contains all the new music for Rainbow Reactor: Fusion, the vastly expanded Meta Quest version of the game.

To tell you a bit about Snow Scout; it's an adventure game on skis that combines exploration, job simulation, adventure and communication with a virtual person in one game. We released it as an Early Access title, since it still needs quite a bit of polishing and bug-fixing, and this format has worked very well with Rainbow Reactor 3 years ago. Of course we know that Early Access is not everyones cup of tea, but if you'd like to get a glimpse into game development, it could be interesting. Also, we will reward your contributions by awarding keys to other dev's VR games, as well as your name in the end credits of Snow Scout, if you'd like to see it there.

And fans of Rainbow Reactors might like the fact that both Dottie and Professor von Hoffenhasselbrock are featured in their own cameos in Snow Scout ːDottieHeartː

Hey Everyone,

It's time to celebrate the Chinese New Year as well as Dottie's 3rd birthday. We released Rainbow Reactor in January 2019, and those years really flew by … We are happy that after a somewhat rocky start, the game blossomed and was quite well received … with many updates, we nurtured it from a defenceless cub to a proud tiger, who now seems to enjoy its golden years, as its gotten a lot more quiet around the game. This is in part due to the fact that the follow-up has been released for Oculus Meta Quest. Rainbow Reactor: Fusion adds a full blown adventure story to the tried-and-true chroma ball throwing. We still have the Steam version for it in the making, but the problem is that we just do not have any time to remodel all the graphics to PCVR specs, and we don't want to disappoint anyone with a simple "Quest port".

Currently, we are very busy getting our next game "Snow Scout" ready for launch. Same as Rainbow Reactor back then, it will begin with an Early Access phase here on Steam later in spring.

If you want some more extra Rainbow in your life, you could consider picking up the Original Soundtrack for the game, which now also contains the new music for Rainbow Reactor: Fusion. At the current price, it's quite the steal. But Dottie is still getting ready for her very own Chinese adventure, more information on that will come as soon as it's available.

But returning to the coming Year Of The Tiger, I personally am looking forward to it, as coincidencally, yours truly was also born in a tiger year. And everyone else is surely also looking forward to humming that old hit by Survivor for the next 12 months … so get to it people, and enjoy ːDottieHeartː

All the best

Hello Everyone,

You are surely aware of the coming arrival of HallowAIn, a time where any artificial intelligence, be it Alexa, Cortana or Siri, is prone to be posessed … And you have probably noticed that our HoverBot Dottie has a bit of a "strong personality" herself - there seems to be a lot of depth to it. Deep in the bowels of her A.I. Core there is a hidden glitch, a split personality created from past trauma, that will only come to light during that special time of year. And then, Dottie will turn into her evil twin Pumpitty McDotkin – so beware and start the game on October 31st at your own risk!

Those among you who also have an Oculus Quest and have reached the "true ending" of Rainbow Reactor: Fusion will of course know a bit more about the traumatic events that slumber deep in Dottie's core. At the moment, we are still wondering how to proceed with the Steam port of that game. Improving the graphics for PCVR is a lot of work, and the current wishlist numbers do not give the impression that this work could pay off. So if you want to boost our motivation, you can wishlist Rainbow Reactor: Fusion for Steam here:

Also, we are working on our next VR game already - Snow Scout, an adventure on skis! For more information and wishlisting, check out our brand new Steam page - it will be live soon!

But for now, have a great spooky season,

Hey Everyone,

To celebrate the release of our new game Rainbow Reactor: Fusion on the Oculus Quest, we released a free upgrade to Rainbow Reactor's Original Sountrack. That way, this OST now contains the complete music from both games :D

As some of you may already know, Rainbow Reactor: Fusion is a port of the Steam version to Quest on the one hand, on the other though, it features a full blown story mode that has you fixing up the reactor building under Dottie's watchful eyes. So aside from the arcade gameplay you all know, there are now a bunch of other typical VR activities that will keep you occupied for 3-4 hours, depending on how much you want to know about the back story of Rainbow Reactor ;D

We are also planning to release the game on Steam, but since we are a small team, we had to push back the release date, as we do not want to release the Quest version on PC without any upgrades. That means it may take a while, so if you own a Quest or Quest 2, it would be awesome if you'd consider picking the game up from the Quest store.

For those who don't mind waiting, we are throwing in the free OST upgrade as a little sweetener.

We are super excited about the launch and of course we have to say that we would never have gotten to this point with all the help and support from the community! Needless to say, some of our top players and contributors have made it into the end credits of Rainbow Reactor: Fusion.

All the best from
The Rainbow Reactor Team ːDottieHeartː

Hey Everyone ːDottieSmileː

Being able to make this announcement makes me extremely happy ːDottieHeartː
Probably, you already have an idea what I'm talking about from looking at this text ːDottieWinkː

RAINBOW REACTOR NOW HAS TRADING CARDS ːDottieWowː ːDottieHeartː

And of course, with great trading card comes great responsibility - in the form of emoji, and now we can all finally have DottieMoji, a thing that everyone definitely needs in their life ːDottieJoyː

The reason why I'm really proud about this even goes a bit deeper, because in order to have Steam trading cards for a game, the game has to reach a certain size first, and this is not easy at all - after all, Rainbow Reactor needed almost two and a half years to grow so far. And before that point, actually, games don't even count into owners' game library and achievement count! This is something not everyone realizes, and since the VR segment on Steam is really quite small still, there is only a really low number of VR games who can offer trading cards ːDottieTiltː

So I hope all of you that have already played Rainbow Reactor are pleasantly surprised to have seen the notification show up that announced the arrival of your first trading cards for the game. And even if you don't care for trading cards or Rainbow Reactor: A really interesting thing is that trading cards for small indie games often are worth more than those of big games - so if you sell your cards, you should have the chance of making a couple extra cents into your Steam wallet ːDottieSmileː

Of course, the reason why Rainbow Reactor even grew big enough to have these trading cards and their associated community features is YOU! All of you who bought and played our game have made this possible, so we hope you are as happy as ourselves that we got these cards, emoji, wallpaper and other items out as quickly as possible ːDottieSmileː

All the best,
The Rainbow Reactor Team ːDottieHeartː

Hello Everyone,

Finally, we can show you what we worked on the last six months: A Rainbow Reactor spin-off with a full Story Mode! The new game will be called Rainbow Reactor: Fusion, a little play on words, as the gameplay is a fusion of the classic Match-3 formula with story-based exploration.

This time, you don't play a loader bot, but yourself! You have learned that some distant relative of yours is the eccentric Professor Alfred Luzian von Hoffenhasselbrock, inventor of Rainbow Energy, and he needs your help. Who cares if this is probably a case of mistaken identity - the Rainbow Reactor has fallen into a state of disrepair and apparently, no-one else is able to tolerate Dottie and carry out the much-needed repairs!

Here's the trailer:
The game's story will last for about 5-6 hours if you 100% it, and we hope everyone can have fun with the several different tasks, tools and difficulty settings.

If you would like to wishlist the game - which would help us tremendously to increase its visibilty - you can do so on the Steam page:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1592160/Rainbow_Reactor_Fusion/

And of course, you can join our Discord if you have questions or want to chat about the game(s)!

Hello Everyone,

we want to announce the announciation of a coming announcement! Well, right, today is the 1st of April but this is no joke: Later this month, Rainbow Reactor: Fusion will officially be announced! We will launch the first trailer and try to get some attention in the community, but also, we want to celebrate the work of other VR developers ːlunar2020hearteyesrabbitː

This is why we will be having a BIG GIVEAWAY where we'll give away 33 Steam Keys for other developer's games, with big titles like The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners, Dirt Rally 2.0, Pixel Ripped 1989 and many others ːwinter2019happyyulː

This is the link to our Official Tunermaxx Discord:
https://discord.gg/4XStG6Swvp

Since we have only 60 people on there at the moment, the chances of winning should be pretty epic! So keep your eyes open in the next 3 weeks … We'll start with a big Virtual Egg Hunt this coming sunday, where we'll launch our giveway bot into different channels on our Discord server, so you just have to click their emoji and that's it - your name will be in the hat for the virtual prize draw ːlunar2019coolpigː

Happy hunting, stay safe and a Happy Easter to all!

Hello Everyone,

On January 15th, 2019, we launched Rainbow Reactor as an Early Access Game on Steam!

A lot has happened in that time, we have improved the game through your feedback and a lot of updates, and it was a super interesting journey for us! Here's a little look back at the very early development of the game, up to the launch of it's "Music & Rhythm Update":

Now, we can proudly announce that we are working on a new VR game that will officially be releases on Oculus Quest, and a bit later hopefully on other platforms as well! Head over to our newly minted Discord if you'd like to know more :D
