Now you can play in VR!

Jung's Labyrinth now supports VR!

If you ever wondered how would the labyrinth look in VR, now you can try it! You can play in VR by switching to the "virtual_reality" beta branch (right click on game -> properties -> betas). On Windows only. IMPORTANT!: Restart the Steam client after installing the game for it to appear in Steam VR Home. The VR port is incomplete, so for that reason I turned on a God mode - you cannot die. Traps and enemies do no damage. Two scenes have a slightly larger scale than the player. Other than that, you can play through the whole game and finish it to the end like you would normally. I've tested it on Oculus Rift S (it should run on other headsets too, there are only 3 buttons needed to control the game + joysticks to move). Here is some VR gameplay if you wonder how it looks: [previewyoutube=1uUMUVRG6YU;full][/previewyoutube]

Update v1.1: Linux Beta now available. Gameplay improvements and bugfixes

Version 1.1 (2020-09-06)

Changelog

improved death camera (Rubedo)
increased FoV (Albedo)
disabled motion blur (Albedo) (helps motion sickness)
added torch to Creator's door (better visibility)
added linear unlocking for chapters (Load Chapter)
added information text about automatic progress saving
enabled jumping outside the house

Linux Beta branch

You can now play the version 1.1 on Linux! It's available as an opt-in beta branch (beta_linux) only, because it is untested. I've tried to run it on Linux Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa with native GPU drivers and there were some graphical glitches. The (Unity) build is identical with Windows and Mac build, where everything works, so these issues are Linux related, but I haven't tested it on newer PCs, GPUs or on other distros. I recommend wine/proton, it should work fine in it. But if you still want to try to play on Linux, the opt-in password for the beta is: IUnderstandTheLimitations

Savefile issue

Some players have reported issues with finding the 4th stone in the first level, Nigredo. Even though they talked with all 4 archetypes, they cannot get past the barrier that is in front of the mirror. This is a bug. It shouldn't happen. edit 20/09/07: The bug should be now fixed. Version 1.12. If you still experience it, please use this thread: https://steamcommunity.com/app/709710/discussions/0/2952628008355381718/

Tomorrow I am adding Linux Ubuntu support

I've fixed the bug that was breaking the Linux version of the game. I am gonna test it on Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa and make it available to you in the afternoon. Also, I've had players complain that they cannot find the 4th door in Albedo level - the door has no torch next to it, so it's very hard to find. So for those lost, this a map to the door. I will add a torch and some minor fixes mentioned in the user reviews tomorrow too.

Game is not tagged as available on Linux on Steam.

Linux is not in the OS list.

Based on teachings of Carl G. Jung, this game explores the themes of so called Individuation process and active imagination - the game allows you to talk with your inner archetypes and leads you on the road to your true Self.

The game's progress is based on the classic hero journey, where you have to confront your Ego archetypes, notice your Shadow projections; integrate your Shadow; work with your Soul archetypes; integrate your Anima and Senex; and only then you will be allowed to progress to your Self.

You can play in VR by switching to the beta branch virtual_reality and restarting the Steam client after installing the game. Only Oculus Rift S supported.

Linux is also supported, but only on an untested beta branch.
