Thanks Cyber!  It's an uphill climb by releasing a new app, but we'll see.

Just for fun, I thought I'd post the progression of cover art from the very first prototype.  For me it visually represents how much I've learned over the years, and also how SLOW-moving I am, thanks to having to divide up my time for the day job, spending time with family etc.  Time flies!

This is great news! I tried the original one on my brothers gear VR a while ago and was blown away by the experience. And now I can actually see the details since I can wear my glasses  😄

Didn't know about the bundle so I'll be checking it out!

Let me take this opportunity to thank you for your great app. Got it back in the DK2 days. It was always one of my favorites. 
I remember in my first session I got the impression I could even feel the heat of the sun when close to it.

@lukeskywatcher Thanks, and I hope you don't have to wait too long for your Go!   Launch is going pretty well so far.  It's so nice to see all the positive vibes surrounding this headset!

@NeloDiavolo You're in for a tripple whammy here:  Your glasses + better display/lenses + higher resolution render target!    It's actually getting harder to develop VR experiences involving text because I can make text pretty small on the Go and still have it be totally clear and legible, but text still has to be relatively large on the Vive for example (which has large FOV and thus relatively low resolution).

@Litespeed You're very welcome!

Hey @drash, still waiting on our Gos...I'm calling mine Oculus Pause!
 Hard to be patient reading all the great reports, but good consumers can get at launch without waiting or pre-orders.
