We did a big update of everything under the hood to make playing with dragons smoother and snapier! We’ve also moved the first dragon appearance sooner so everyone can play with their first dragon faster!
**2nd Update** This is now fixed in v0.39.1. For those who switched over to the the ‘prev’ beta branch, you can leave it there for a more stable build or switch back to ‘NONE’ for the latest and greatest.
**Update** This version is not compatible with the SteamVR ‘openvr-inputemulator-temporary’ beta branch. To use the previous version of Beast Pets, opt into our ‘Prev’ beta branch which will always contain the previous stable version.
To opt into the previous stable branch:
1) From the Steam library, right click Beast Pets and select "Properties"
2) Go to the "Betas" tab
3) Choose "Prev" from the dropdown menu
