suggestions from a new player
I just got this game yesterday and while overall I like it I have a few thoughts:

1. Please put in a room adjustment feature!!! Beat Saber and Synth Riders have this and it makes the game so much more enjoyable. I do not like playing facing my computer - my VR headset cord ends on the right side of my head but my PC is on the left and when I am forced to play facing my computer it's constantly wrapping around my legs and it's a major tripping hazard. Sounds small, but it really interferes with my enjoyment of the game because I'm terrified to lift my feet. With BS and SR I can turn the room 90 degrees and play facing away and I've never gotten tangled up in the cords no matter how much I'm stepping around. In my setup, hanging my cords overhead is not an option right now. Also, I'm afraid if I do get into it and step forward too much I'm going to smack my monitor.

2. I'm not sure if I am really bad or if it's bugged but I keep getting fails for hitting the obstacles. I'm pretty experienced with Synth Riders and I get that I need to clear it with my hands and headset but I'm constantly getting fails for hitting them when I am pretty sure I'm nowhere near them. I've had my hands at my chest and dodged well away from the obstacle and gotten fails. Something is bugged, and I don't know whether it is the game or my headset losing tracking of my controllers but I don't have this issue in other games.

3. Small, but an exit button would be nice!

Thanks for the feedback. Here is some info that may help:

1. If I understand what you're referring to correctly, this functionality is actually now built into Steam VR, and here are instructions on how to do it:

2. In Audio Trip, you must avoid the barriers with both your head and both hands.

3. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for playing, we've got lots more fun stuff in store coming up!

Thanks for the reply and the help with the room reorientation help! I was looking around for a way to do this and didn't find this! It will make the game so much better! I do know that I have to avoid the barriers with both my head and my hands and I definitely am but still keep getting occasional fails. I had my hands in front of my face on one dodge and was well away and got the fail. I'm honestly not sure if it is my headset bugging out or the game.
