£2.93 or just 69p if you have the base game

whilst the vr implementation is a little janky in places, it really is beautiful...

Would be rude not to

Thanks I'll give this a look tonight.

I recommend using teleport rather than free movement in this game unless you have a very strong VR legs.
I can handle just about anything in VR but this game made me feel queasy using free-movement.

Found something a bit odd, I bought the VR version for 69p on Steam and although it says you need the Ethan Carter base game, I have a Key from Humble Bundle I've not redeemed yet, it allowed me to purchase it on its own.
Just out of curiosity I installed the VR only version and it ran ok without the base game.
Only played a few minutes mind.

Thanks will try this out

No worries.

Not sure it makes a difference but I'm using a Rift.

Did this game get upgraded to Unreal Engine 4?

Haven't got VR - but the normal game for £2.24 looks pretty decent.

Bought. I'm looking forward to playing tonight now.

Read on steam a few mins ago that it `could` be due to having another controller plugged in.Not had a chance to try as yet
EDIT Got it to work by unplugging my claw controller
Plugging in an xbox 360 controller.It then works.Bit too motion sicky for me i think
Could not get the touch controllers to work though

Matches my experience exactly. Also I could not figure out how to move the train. I could not find the starting handle.

starting handle.
Have a look by the lake
