What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Desktop Portal is fully functional but lacks some of the features I had wanted to add long term. Unfortunately I don't have the free-time to work on it anymore, and don't plan to add anymore features for the foreseeable future.

I'll attempt to keep providing any critical bugfixes if core features get broken with newer SteamVR or Windows updates.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version of Desktop Portal contains all features mentioned in the description below.
This means, capturing desktop windows as overlays, pinning and anchoring overlays within your VR playspace, and having easy access to all your SteamVR games.”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

READ BEFORE BUYING:
- Desktop Portal requires Windows 10 for full functionality.
