Not sure if this is the correct forum category for this post but it relates to OVR Share:
How long does the submission process take? I.e. if we wanted a timed release date, say to release a demo on the same day a Kickstarter campaign launches, is that an option?
As you know, I am the programmer of Live for Speed. Support for Oculus has been in development for some time as you can see this thread : viewtopic.php?f=42&t=5335
A user "noquarter" has posted Live for Speed on Oculus Share without our authorisation and without trying to contact us before he did so : https://share.oculus.com/app/live-for-speed
I guess he was trying to help. But Live for Speed is not ready for Oculus Share. I believe it should be for me, the developer, to put it on Oculus Share when the support is included in our full version. Installing the full version and then copying files from a Test Patch zip does not give the best impression. Also as there is a new test patch, the instructions on the unauthorised Oculus Share page now point to the old version and this is one example why it should be managed by me.
Please could you remove the submission from Oculus Share? I am planning to move to a full 'official' version in the next couple of weeks, then I will submit Live for Speed to Oculus Share.
I have already asked noquarter to remove the share and also clicked "report this app" on the aunathorised share page but so far have had no response.
Do you think that random people should be able to share the work of other developers without their permission, when the developers are readily available to talk about it? There seems to be a flaw in the submission process.
I look forward to making a submission with Rift support in our official version as soon as possible, and continuing development when I receive my DK2! 🙂
Just wanted to check we are allowed to submit a game to Oculus Share and submit it to Steam Greenlight program too? Is there any level of exclusivity associated with Oculus Share?
We are very close to submitting our demo to Oculus Share (this week!)
