FYI We have now patched the game, if you happen to try the game please let us know if the issue persists
ok thanks, I'll pass the info forward we'll take a look ASAP
If this occurs while launching the game, one thing that might help, is to launch the game with VR headset turned OFF, then in-game in the menu turn the VR headset ON.
Anyways, we'll investigate.
Thank you for your patience
Hi, POOLS dev here.
First of all apologies for the inconvenience.
If you have time, could you please share more details here or to support@tensori.fi - Does this happen on PS5 with PSVR2 or with PC and PSVR2 adapter? Could you please send us recording / PC logs AppData\LocalLow\Tensori\Pools

Screenshot from Pools, Level 0. A room painted in stark stripes of pale green and pink. Hanging from the ceiling are ceramic-like white clouds, and in the center of the room is a pit, whose walls are studded with different color pillows. Around the pit are a handful of child-size chairs.
Screenshot from Pools, Level 0. The viewer is half-submerged in water in a mostly off-white marble column-studded room. Various structures bear brightly lit windows. In the middle of the room, floating on the water, is a large, neon green, inflatable octopus, with big cartoonish eyes looking at the viewer.
Screenshot from Pools, Level 0. At the end of a dark green tiled hallway with a white tiled floor is an arched doorway, behind which is what appears to be a large, clown's head with its mouth wide open.
Screenshot from Pools, Level 0. In a small room half submerged in water and the viewing angle or the room is slightly tilted. The walls are covered in a brown and gold patterned wallpaper. In the center of the room is a large round column also covered in wallpaper. On the other side of the room is a large backlit window and a wooden chair with a white cushion floating in the water.
I've had this dream before. @tensori.fi

PS4 requires more optimization, since it's older hardware and game is quite performance heavy. We'll look into that if PS5 launch goes well
POOLS is now available on GOG
Our artist recommends POOLS by @tensori.fi and noted “Why are liminal spaces such a rich vein of digital folklore for our restless culture? A lovely walking sim that deftly balances disquiet and calm in near equal measure. I played it with my kids.” store.steampowered.com/app/2663530/...
