Hello friends! It's been a year since I last did an official release and during that time I have completely rewritten 80%+ of the app. What this means is there's a great potential for NEW BUGS! I'm always terrified to do a new release and have some bug pop up and... there goes my "very positive" review rating! So, please, I beg you- help me test this beta out a bit so I can feel comfortable releasing it! How to do this: In your Steam library, right click on DMT and select Properties Then navigate to the Betas tab the one you want is in the dropdown and is called "experimental" Select that, it

Wow, I've added a lot since the last full release! Newer higher-resolution quality mode! Sparsatorium mode! Updated Vortex and Shatter modes! Super-trippy versions of Sparsatorium, Gordian Knot, and The Zone Things and stuff! User requests, like a better way of recentering and an auto-rotate mode! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33569114/e010b043c267938fca9c5dc3f01a099c8d631175.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33569114/5883717ddb539dc3f6a4646b703c2fc9fd3cd04d.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33569114/05b6fdfa33db6699e4cd24c7aa1ce9fd335ea94a.png

I posted a new beta with the label "Latest Beta" if you want to check it out before I do the full release. New mode: sparsatorium: it's crazy! New quality setting: Ludicrous (if you have a ridiculously powerful machine) Bugfixes: Someone left me a horrible review. I discovered he'd uncovered a bug, and I fixed it! some other stuff! Enjoy, and let me know what you think of the Sparsatorium!

This is a big update! New "Shatter" mode! New "Gordian Knot" mode! New "The Void" Mode! New "Vortex" Mode! These modes are pretty different from what you've seen before and I think you're going to love them! New audio processing: I'm now processing music using some techniques that make it much more responsive by simulating human audio preception. It's better! 2D mode: People asked for it, I made it! You can play the app without a VR headset Plus, lots of other stuff you've all asked for!

Get it now and try it out! Ok, TONS of stuff in this new beta. I made a bunch of changes under-the-hood and over-the-hood. Here's some of what you'll see (and it's all stuff that needs testing, so please get on the Discussions board after you've checked it out and give me feedback!) New Modes: This is the "meat and potatoes" of this update. Glitchy has gone away (forever?) and been replaced with Shatter. Shatter may be my favorite mode now. Spinny is renamed "Vortex". FlashFreeze has been replaced with another new mode called "Kaleido" which I'm thinking is very cool. FlashFreeze was cool some

Hello friends! I am super excited to get this new version into your hands! There have been a lot of changes, both to usability and to features. Things like: 1) you all asked for an in-app song browser/player. I had my doubts, but I added it. Now I use it all the time :) 2) no more annoying launch screen! That's right, it now launches directly rather than going to the "pick your resolution" window ok, so, that's all fine. But what's the big deal? New modes! 3) I added three new modes: FlashFreeze, Syrup, and TheZone. I think I default to FlashFreeze and Syrup being turned off, because I know th

Hi folks! I've been working on this update since releasing in December and I'm finally ready to get some eyes on it! Major update!! 1) New modes: When I released, there were two modes (Glitchy and Spinny) now they are joined by The Zone and Flash Freeze! The Zone comes from user requests! Flash Freeze is weird and experimental! 2) In-app file browser/ music player: Sometimes you don't want to take off your headset to launch or change music. Now you don't have to! This will let you play mp3 files off your harddrive. It's a little bit janky, but it works. Feedback wanted! 3) No more startup dial

Friends, the day has come: DMT is moving from Early Access into full release! Does this mean I'm done? ABSOLUTELY NOT! I still have a million things I want to add, improve, and just mess around with! But for today, I celebrate! Thank you all so much for the great feedback you gave during Early Access! Keep the ideas flowing- YOU let me know where to focus my energy! YOU keep me inspired! YOU give me great ideas! I'm going to keep noodling on this thing until I'm 90, but it's YOU who make it all worthwhile!

Hi everyone! I have put up a new beta. This one has some big changes I want your feedback on! 1) higher resolution: Let me know if this maintains good performance. If it forces you from Ultra to Beautiful, then I am a sad person. 2) better performance: In theory this build should run nice and smooth- so much so that I bumped the resolution up! 3) an old feature has been brought back to life! There used to be (before I released the app) a mode where I would not erase things that were drawn to the screen. It's really effing cool, but it's unpredictable and about 50% of the time ends up looking l

Hello fine people! Ok, so I broke the build last night and some people couldn't launch the game. I am a SORRY developer! So, I learned a lesson: maybe if I'm releasing something with a bunch of big changes under the hood, I should do a beta first. Ok, yep. I just posted a beta. If you want to check it out and give me feedbacks in the discussion group, just go to DMT in your library, then rightr click on it and go to Properties. There's a tab called Betas. Go and opt-in for the development branch and you'll be able to try out the latest, greatest, and potentially brokenest version of DMT. Let m

Sorry folks, I'll get this new version up to snuff soon, but some users were getting a crash, so I'm rolling back to the previous!
2018-10-25 04:06 UTC · Community Announcements · DMT
This one has some performance improvements and some tweaks to the visuals to improve sense of depth and dynamic range. Some pretty big changes under the hood, so please speak up on the discussion boards if I've screwed something up!!

Hey everybody! I just put up a new build that includes some changes and features that you folks have requested! You'll notice a pretty big visual change, and I'm really interested in your feedback. The request was for improved color palettes- I tweaked and tuned even more on that, rewrote a couple shaders, and ended up with much greater contrast and a much better sense of depth! I also added the ability to rotate your facing direction using the right pad/stick! This is nice for people who want to lie down or turn around or whatever. I'm surprised I never thought to add this until it was reques

Hey everybody! I found a bug that was causing "glitchy" mode to render its stuff with subdued depth. I fixed it, things should now have more depth to them in glitchy mode! Thanks for reviewers for pushing me to investigate this, I want you all to be happy!
