oot-vr v0.1.0-alpha
This is the first release of oot-vr. You play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in first person on the Meta Quest 3S. The game runs natively on the headset. You do not need a PC to play.
This is an alpha release. You can play the main story from Kokiri Forest to Ganon's Tower. Some problems are known. Save frequently.
Important
You must own a legal copy of the game. This APK does not contain game assets. At the first start, you select a dump of your own cartridge or disc.
What works
- Stereo 3D and a first-person camera that follows your head.
- Physical combat. You swing the sword with your hand. You hold up the shield with your hand.
- Automatic world scale for child Link and adult Link.
- An item selector. Hold the right thumbstick click, move your hand to an item, and release.
- A wrist HUD. Look at your left wrist to see your hearts, magic, and rupees.
- Menus and the pause screen on a floating panel.
- The first-start setup on the headset. Select your dump, and the headset makes
oot.o2r.
