Notes
One installer brings the Penumbra trilogy (Overture, Black Plague and the Requiem expansion) to PC VR with stereo rendering, tracked hands for doors, drawers, switches and physics objects, controller and room-scale movement, and VR-adapted inventory, notebook and menus. Tested mainly on PS VR2, with profiles for other controllers. Successor to the dev's earlier Penumbra VR rework. GPL-3.0+. No game files included.
