Original postHello everyone!
First, we'd like to announce that we have dropped the price tag down to $4.99 USD. We feel this price is more fair and gives our customers a better value. Thank you all for your feedback!VR Edition:
We're releasing a VR Edition of the game really soon. The VR Edition will be provided FREE of charge to those who already own the game, and a free copy will be given to all new customers!
The VR Edition has been rebuilt and optimized for all VR headsets. More details can be found on the store page or in the FAQ section:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/720290/Reaching_for_Petals_VR_Edition/
FAQ:
Does this game have teleportation?
No, the game uses a standard touchpad/joystick locomotion method. The speed is comfortable and motion sickness isn't common. If you do experience any motion sickness, you are entitled to a refund! The game is best played with an Xbox controller, although the Vive wands and Touch controllers can also be used for input; there just isn't any hand detection. It's unnecessary in this experience.
What if I own the original? Do I have to rebuy for vr?
No, if you already own the original, then upon release, the VR Edition will be added to your Steam library free of charge. Also, if you buy the VR Edition and do not already own the regular game, you'll get the regular game for free.
So the VR Edition is basically free? Why didn't you guys make it a free DLC on the original game?
Yes! We don't want to charge a single dime extra for vr mode. The reason why we had to do it like this is because the game was rebuilt from the ground up and is actually a completely different application. Since the VR mode runs standalone from the original, we had to sell it as a separate title, since Steam doesn't support Standalone DLCs.

UPDATE: Performance improvements, invert option, and more!

Original postWe just pushed a well needed update with huge performance improvements and new features!
New Features:
- Invert Y-axis option. It can be toggled on/off from the in-game pause menu.
- Dynamic narration audio. Narration volume should now adjust based on music and location. Previously, the music would drown out the narration; this is now fixed.
Changes:
- Drastic performance improvements.
- Optimized texture streaming for less texture pop-in.
- Fixed windowed mode not correctly displaying game name.
- Fixed an out of bounds glitch in chapter 3.
- Improved culling of foliage and level streaming for better performance.
- Reduced file size to 5gb. Nearly half of what it was!
Known Issues:
- Unfortunately, you may still experience some slight texture pop-in if you are running at 4k resolution. This is something we are looking into. It is caused by lack of v-ram, so if your card has less than 4gb of v-ram, we recommend you don't run at 4k to avoid this issue.
- LOD pop-in is still being improved. In the next update, this should be completely fixed.
Let us know if you come across anymore issues! Also, we have a
BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
about the game coming later this week. Have fun!
