About This Software River Relaxation VR is a relaxing hands-free virtual reality simulation of calmly floating down a river in a kayak. The simulation includes both a "morning" and "night time" experience of the same river.Watch the trees gently sway as the birds sing and circle overhead while the kayak takes you through sun and shade. Listen to the water trickle from the waterfalls down into the river as butterflies hover over bending flowers. Challenge yourself to stay awake while the crickets chirp, the fireflies dance and the full moon lights up a darkened river.You may configure the audio levels and kayak speed by turning your head to the back of the kayak and looking at the first two soda cans on the left in the cooler. Look at a can for one full second to bring up a panel with buttons you can look at to configure settings and dismiss the panel.River Relaxation VR runs for approximately 25 minutes before auto-replaying itself. To end the simulation, either press the Escape key or turn your head to the back of the kayak and look directly at the last soda can on the right, and then at the confirmation button.River Relaxation VR is a 100% hands-free kayak-on-rails simulation. Paddling or any other controlling of the kayak is not supported. 7aa9394dea Title: River Relaxation VRDeveloper:Christopher HaagPublisher:Christopher HaagRelease Date: 18 Feb, 2019 River Relaxation VR Portable Edition river relaxation vr It is a very good river sceneries. Every elements in this game is very well design. If you like to meditate while someone is rowing the kayak for you then this is the perfect meditation. For people who would like to have more then I would suggest to send feedback to this designer. When you get to the end of this tour there is no way to either reverse course of to have a loop. Second thing that would be great is to be able to row your rowing machine link\/sync with this VR. Has time goes may be the designer could have more different river sceneries. UNtil later enjoy..

Early Access Update Nov 6th: This is a big yet little update with the following changes: The underlying engine upgrade has been updated to improve performance Removed "mist" behind the first waterfall Increased kayak turn speed so as not to drift so much Made the kayak sail in a more centered path between the coasts in some areasThe "big" part corresponds to the engine itself. I just upgraded the app from Unreal Engine 4.19 to Unreal Engine 4.20 to get performance improvements. It works fine for me but engine upgrades are always big under the hood, so if this suddenly stops working for anyone I need to know ASAP.After upgrading the engine I noticed the mist cloud that existed behind the first waterfall encounter about two minutes in the trip looked really bad, so I took it out entirely since it otherwise added very little value to the experience.Further testing showed some problems with the kayak floating where it didn't belong in certain turns. I fixed the particularly bad ones and I plan to do more in the next update.Furthermore I plan to reach out to an artist to help me make the water look better while still keeping the app running very smoothly.. River Relaxation VR Leaving Early Access!: Thanks in no small part to the wonderful feedback from the Steam community who purchased it in Early Access, River Relaxation is about to go into full release mode!It is however with some regret that I STILL have not been able to pin down that bug where sometimes looking at a configuration soda can does nothing. As soon as I figure out the steps to duplicate it, it's only a matter of time before I fix it.The plan is to take the app out of Early Access this Friday night and apply a discount on it for a very short time before the price goes up to a level higher than it was on Early Access.So if you have any friends who have RRVR in their wishlist or are sitting on the fence undecided on buying it, let them know!. Early Access Update Nov 1st: This update has the following changes: The kayak no longer turns on a dime, but rather glides and slightly tilts toward the predetermined path The kayak now slightly bobs up and down The ripples are slightly more visible and the water slightly less transparentThe changes are designed to be subtle but still experience enhancing.I think the water is still too transparent, but if I make it more solid then it turns into an ugly gravy textured flow. It will be a real challenge to improve the water to look more realistic without hurting the frame rate, but I'll see what I can do.. River Relaxation VR Now On Early Access!: I'm happy to announce after months of work that my first VR Experience is now available on Steam!River Relaxation VR is a calming hands-free simulation of a kayak slowly gliding downstream developed using the Unreal Engine. A balance of realistic and quickly rendered assets were used in putting together the vast landscape of trees and rocks. Sound effects were carefully chosen and positioned in the world to make it seem there are flocks of birds within the trees, and that you can both see and hear approaching waterfalls.RRVR will be in Early Access while I make changes based on user feedback, performance improvement discoveries, and other ideas I have. I won't promise to get them all in, but I will promise to try to fix crashes, visual artifacts and other problems that may come up.So relax, open a window, put a comforting drink in your hand and enjoy the ride!. Early Access Update Jan 17th: Today a minor patch was released with these improvements: When the kayak reaches the end of the river, it stops for one minute and then restarts at the beginning of the river. Fixed issue where the little white dot wouldn't appear on the big main menu buttons.I thought about having the simulation return to the main menu after finishing, but based on user feedback I decided it would be more convenient to just repeat the river.Remember, you can always quit the simulation immediately by pressing the Escape key, or looking at the "Exit" soda can in the kayak's cooler.Meanwhile I'm still trying to duplicate the neverending bug where sometimes looking at the soda cans does not bring up their corresponding menu options!
