Hello all,

I just completed my first Bitsy game, How Many Birds, which relied heavily on various mods and some code tweaking of my own. The game lies somewhere between an exploratory 8-bit game, psychoanalysis, and early CD-ROM experiences. It was inspired by early 2000's Flash mini-games, and the chaos of those early interactive web experiences.

I used the Bitsy engine, along with HTML Canvas and custom video players. It's super buggy on mobile, would recommend only trying on a computer :-P 

Bitsy is such an amazing platform, and it was incredibly flexible and inspiring. Thank you Adam Le Doux!!

Please hit me up with any feedback, would love to hear what anyone thinks!

Thanks for the quick response! After you mentioned SteamVR I checked my system and found that Oculus wasn't properly linked with Steam, which was causing the issue. It's working now.

Really amazing world you've created, thank you for sharing! The mood, the lighting, and the thoughtful interactions are great. 

Question: are you using VRTK for interaction, or did you roll your own? 

Hey, I'm having this grey screen problem as well.

I just downloaded the game, and I've tried launching it thru Steam, thru Oculus, and by just double clicking the .exe. I get the same result each time, which is a grey screen on the computer, and no game in the headset. When I launch thru Oculus I do see the panel in the headset that it is launching the app (same as when I test Unity projects), but it never moves into the experience.

I'm using the Oculus Rift on a Windows 10 machine. Any advice? I'm really looking forward to trying this out!
