Rants on Linux compatability with VR Game Development

The Unreal engine is the only Linux supported VR development framework I could find that could swiftly be started. It would be great to have access to the Source 2 engine Valve used to develop Half Life Alyx. Or at least proper access to the workshops for SteamVR and Half Life Alyx's workshops. Oh well.

Unity

To the best of my knowledge, Unity development for SteamVR is not currently supported on Linux as of 02/09/20. So fuck that.

Source 2

Soon, hopefully. Valve are doing good with Linux compatability and should be supported. Cheers guys <3.
