What we’re about
Come play a VR game in development and be a part of shaping its evolution. Game makers need feedback from players like you! For our in-person meetups, you do not need to have a VR headset of your own! Whether you're new to Virtual Reality or you basically live in the Oasis, your reactions and thoughts are welcome and valued.
For members who do own their own VR headsets, we have periodic virtual meetups in multi-player games like Walkabout Mini Golf. If you're a dev working on a multi-player project, we can give it a play test at one of these virtual meetups.
If you're a VR game dev yourself, you can share your work with other members and get plenty of useful feedback. Join us to schedule an in-person beta night.

BANJAX, resident VR game-in-development needs your play testing feedback! Become a master of the Banjax, a magical flying disc that appears in your hand whenever needed -- send it whizzing through the air to meet its target. Once, a dark wizard wove a fiendish spell to mesmerize and enslave all who came into contact with it. Travel the many worlds, and shatter artifacts of that curse with your Banjax. Befriend a creature named Ruellia, and fly on her back to other worlds where your skills of shattering will be put to the test.
This game has been in development for about three years, by David Barlia (that's me!) The feedback I've garnered from playtesting at these events has been invaluable in making a polished, fun experience. I invite other XR developers to present their projects--don't be shy! The sooner you let people play, the sooner you can find out what needs work. Here's a short video of work in progress on a new level for Banjax:

Again, if you do have a Quest headset of your own, bring it! You'll get a download link to install Banjax on your own headset to play at home!ALL SEASON BREWING
