I was once part of a small team at Google that made a VR drawing app. Today is the ten year anniversary of its release. Happy birthday, Tilt Brush! The app is no longer supported, but it lives on in openbrush.app @openbrush.app

Testing importing a fairly complex Quill scene. Fidelity is pretty good now thanks to some fixes by Joan Charmant. (original sketch by www.mattschaeferdesign.com )

The Windows Thumbnail Extension is now available from openbrush.itch.io/openbrush (see the last item in the download list). This should make it much easier to rename and sort your sketches. Quest users can use this as well. Just copy over your sketches to a PC, organise them and copy them back.

Do I know anyone making #art with @openbrush.app? One of my favorite #VR art tools. There's gorgeous work online in the @icosa.gallery. Viewable in desktop!

This is the community-made project that replaced Google Poly! Wheels turning over here (this is how I stay sane in the winter).

Wow, @openbrush.app name dropped by @valvesoftware.com in this interview as already working with Steam Frame! 🥳 Please still send us dev kits… www.pcgamer.com/hardware/vr-...
The Steam Frame is here: 'a new way to play your entire Steam library'
Wireless connectivity, improved optics, new controllers and a chip all of its own, the Steam Frame looks to be worth the wait.

Spent the #night getting reacquainted with @openbrush.app #VR.

Some 43,600 brush strokes & 117,111,117 polys later, very satisfying to just make stuff~!

Want to figure out how to sync audio with the camera paths tool next!

おはようございます
これっくらいのお弁当と
今日は作業集中チルいアプリ #gogh と、 #OpenBrush で描いた 3マス(3ヶ月でマスターする絵を描く) の第7回目の犬 🐕 goghにそれをスクリーンセーバーみたく組み込んで、と。

夏も近づいてかき氷🍧をおやつに出したり、除湿モードでエアコン稼働したり 今年はそこまで暑くならなそうなことも聞いた気がするけど それでも暑い夏が来るのは戦々恐々……。

無理なく動きたいですねぇ。体育祭もあるからgkbrしてる我……とは言っても、子供は教室で食べるのでちっちゃいお弁当を何個か作るだけで良い。昔は2時に起きて色々作ってたんだから楽よねw

We fixed a bug in the beta yesterday that broke sketch loading on the Quest. If you switched away from the beta because of this - it should be fine now to switch back. Thanks to Kudo Albus for reporting this and helping test the fix.
