SideQuestVR

Physics-fueled games with friends

Hello there. I assume you’re here to learn more about Banter. Well, SideQuest made a Social VR game. With excellent physics in it. So, go ahead and click ‘more…’ to learn more. See it down there in blue? Isn’t that meta?

The best physics in Social VR

Harness cutting-edge FlexaPhysics ™️ (made with ♥️by Nimso) and bend gravity to your will. Or get rid of it entirely. Who needs gravity, anyway?

Be who you want to be

Pick from Ready Player Me or a fully custom avatar. Import your creations from Blender to really own your look.

Banter’s better together

Meet friends and make new ones at Banter’s regular hangouts, meetups, movie nights, karaoke-thons, and more. It’s called Social VR for a reason.

Get your game on—and push that tush

From Ski Jump to Tush Push, challenge your pals on the Banter leaderboards. Can you become the number one number two? 💩

Share in the adventure

Portal across the Banter-verse and explore thousands of community-created worlds. Can you survive the Banter Backrooms…? If you build it, they will come… Build worlds, make games, host events, and share it all with the Banter community. Go on… Flap your wings like a little social butterfly.

Slam your body down and wind it all around

Or don’t… Either way, you’ve got options for full-body motion tracking.

Actually… great

I’m not a big fan of VR chat or games like it. I don’t really see the point in sitting around and talking, but I’m actually enjoying Banter. Here’s why: - Physics based movement (climbing, swinging, etc) is quite fun and gives me something to do while having out. Some worlds, such as backrooms, are actually fun to explore. - It looks decent, but more importantly: it actually performs great. There’s definitely things to improve upon and I’m certain it won’t be for everyone, but it’s worth checking out.

You Rock 🎸

As a soon-to-be evicted Altspace VR user, I panicked when the platform announced it was closing. I was lost and forlorn, until I wondered into Banter. It felt like home. I spent a fair amount of headset time in just one world. This is amazing. I'm definitely going to become a regular. You added one sad Altspacer to your new venue for sure! So excited to watch it grow. Thanks for the tour Shane & Bob. I'll be back.....

It's basically dead

I feel like this game has a really good idea. It is more or less a VR chat clone, but it has a lot more features than you would think. The only issue with it is with VR chat. You have more people playing this game doesn't even have three people playing at one point. It's very sad. I would love to see this game having more people but I don't think will ever happen. I honestly would love to see more people playing it but yeah three stars. I hope that this game grows

WARNING: NOT FOR UNDER 18

While i like the app and everyone's creativity, I went into a one that had a large screen over a lake. It has internet access and someone logged on, displayed pornographic content, created a play list and stayed logged in. Luckily I deleted all the videos just in time as a kid came into the room just shortly after i changed the videos. If you are going to have full access to an open internet with no restrictions, your app should be rated for Adults only.

It's an adventure

Took me a while to find my way around and to sign in with my sidequest but got there eventually. I've explored quite a few spaces and there are many to explore. The Devs have worked hard on this and no doubt will be pushing regular updates. Get in and have a nosey. It's entertaining watching cardboard box avatars trying to figure out how to unmute themselves lol pay attention to the guides that are in there first otherwise you'll be wandering around like a zombie. Most of all..... ENJOY!!
