We’re constantly looking at ways to improve the Oculus developer experience. One area we’ve focused on behind-the-scenes is the sharing and publishing of Oculus-ready games and experiences.
Today we’re excited to announce the beta launch of Oculus Share (http://share.oculusvr.com), a new platform that lets you self-publish, discover, download, and play the best VR games and experiences out there.
Oculus Share (or simply, Share) is the first of many steps we’re taking to build the best virtual reality platform. With Share, you can host Oculus-ready games and experiences that you’ve created, browse and download content from other developers, rate experiences on quality and VR comfort level, provide feedback to devs on what you enjoyed (and what you didn’t), and tip fellow developers for their work in cash, should you feel so inclined.
Oculus Share is available now at share.oculusvr.com. You can log in with the same Oculus username and password you use for the Developer Center.
Experimentation, iteration, and actual playtesting are at the heart of pushing virtual reality forward. One of the main goals in building Share was to help developers on all these fronts by creating a centralized community portal for Oculus content. And while it’s simply a sharing service today, over the coming months we’ll work toward making Share an incredible marketplace for Oculus-ready games, experiences, and applications.
Initially, we’ll be vetting submissions to make sure the content isn’t offensive or malicious. If you’re planning to submit your work right away, please be patient as we improve and streamline the approval process.
We’d like to give a special thank you to the developers who helped us alpha test Share, including Cloudhead Games, Owlchemy Labs, UXGround, Justin Moravetz, Aldin Dynamics, Lumina Celare, TerraNovita Software BVBA, and Enno Gottschalk.
Share is designed to be community-driven. If you have questions, comments, or suggestions on how we can improve, let us know at support@oculusvr.com.
We hope Share helps you build the best VR games you possibly can. This is just the beginning!
