I made VR horror game and published it on oculus vr store.
I saw opportunity cause not much games in categories, but seems like they put all small publishers in “other” category, which is very hard to find.
Any of you got experience with vr developing and publishing so we can discuss about making money in this market?
 
I have a Rift. Send me a key so I can play it in my live stream if you want ;)
What a nice fella to offer.

Also to OP. I believe the game industry is always there. Influencers seem like the way to go unless you have a way. Last September I almost spent $2500 on game Dev/Design. I chickened out thinking it wasn't worth it. I have a Steam dev account just sitting there with no game.
 
I spent much more than 2500$. But seems like oculus just giving opportunity to big companies and list them to main categories
 
VR horror games are way too intense for me man! Wonder if they have actually killed anyone yet?
 
Not because game is mine, but its very good compared to big games:)
But traffic is very low, cause oculus hide us under other category. Thats why I look for solution to promote it
 
Could you get involved with some kind of PPI program and pay a few cents for installs?

*edit I would also email the admin team and see if they can help you out. it is their platform after all. Maybe they can list you in action. Do you have dev forums to post to?
 
What's the name of the game? If you want to share that is, you can pm me if you don't want to announce it. I'm always on the lookout for new horror games for the oculus.

I'd maybe try Facebook ads, maybe a demo clip from the game and promote it to people who follow popular vr horror games? Then link it directly to your game. Might work well, idk

I also agree with using influencers to get the name out, gaming seems to be an awesome niche for influencer promotion.
