How to open / deep link to the Oculus Store Page in RIFT headset
Hello,
In our game we're trying to open up the oculus store page (in headset) and have it point to another game's page.
I understand there is the "oculus.Platform.Application.LaunchOtherApp" method, however there are several issues we're experiencing:
- When using a Rift, and the user doesn't have the game, it simply throws an error. From the deep linking documentation it seems to me that the store page only opens up if the user is on the quest.
- This method still wouldn't work as we don't actually want to launch another app, but simply pause the focus of the game being played, and show an in headset overlay that displays the store page for the other game.
Is this possible?
