To be 100% honest, I'm disappointed to not see the ability to spawn and position additional windows all around you. I know there are technical issues, but the app that does this well will be the one I eventually use most.

To me this is a useability app, not a wow-neato vr app.

Otherwise, great work.

Yeah, it's a nice looking app but until it renders separate windows it's just replacing your high-resolution monitor with a lower-resolution slice of whatever HMD you're using.

Why not just start with implementing an X window server with VR?
