Socialize with anyone


Online socialization and real-time communication whether you're in desktop or VR is the foundational layer of everything in Resonite. Being able to communicate and be yourself is an important part of the platform. To make this possible, we offer a number of key features:

  • Low latency voice - communicate in real time with other users in session with latency rivaling that of other messaging applications
  • Fully custom avatars - import, build and customize any avatars in-game and in real-time to look like the best version of you
  • Full body tracking, eye & face tracking - to maximize your avatar's expressivity we support 8 trackers (feet, knees, hips, chest and elbows) as well as eye and face tracking
  • Haptics support - with support for haptic vests such as bHaptics, you can increase your immersion and become part of the virtual world
  • Instant messaging - chat over text, send invites, voice messages or even arbitrary items to your contacts
  • Flexible session visibility & security - you are in control of the visibility and accessibility of your sessions, anywhere from public to fully private, with an access list you control. All validation and verification of joining users is done on your client - if you set your session to Private, you can be sure that it is private
  • Customizable UI - the user interface is your gateway to using the platform and just like everything else in Resonite, it can be customized and extended to better suit your needs and make your daily experience more comfortable
  • Self-moderation tools - we understand that not every interaction on the platform will be good and that's why we want to empower you with a number of self-moderation tools - moderate your own worlds with silence, kick and ban functions or easily mute and block individual users avatars or their entire presence. Our goal is to give you as much control over your virtual experience as we can.
  • Multi-world presence - just like tabs in a web browser, you can be present in multiple worlds and switch between them in a fraction of second

Play, explore and share


Socializing does not have to end at chatting with your fellow users. Resonite is a universe full of fun gadgets, avatars and games to explore, with features to make any session fun and exciting.

  • Easy media sharing - drag & drop pictures, audio/music or videos into any world to share with other users with synchronized playback - it's that easy!
  • Inventory system - did you find or made something cool? Save it to your inventory! You can spawn any items, gadgets and tools in any world (as long as you have permissions to do so) - everything is fully synchronized too!
  • Dynamic avatar scaling - exploring the world or interacting with users at different scales can give you quite a different experience - you can change your avatar's scale anywhere, at any time (unless it's limited by the host of the session)!
  • High quality audio streaming - want to host a party and be the DJ? Streaming your system audio in full stereo in high quality is a few clicks away
  • World search & session discovery system - looking for a cool world to visit or what your friends are up to? Searching worlds by their names and tags as well as seeing which worlds your contacts are in will help you there
  • Stream to your audience - our in-game recording and streaming tools make it easy to produce captivating and dynamic camera shots, whether you're streaming or filming videos for social media
  • Custom locomotion - we don't limit you to just walking around - you can fly, noclip switch to zero-g or build your own customized locomotion system - ever tried to walk on a surface of a Möbius strip?

Build and create


If you have a creative itch, you may enjoy the powerful toolset that Resonite offers to you. Not only you can build and edit absolutely anything - from your avatar, items, to the entire worlds or even making your own tools, you can collaborate with others in real time and achieve true creative resonance!

  • Realtime collaboration - the collaboration on our platform is so seamless, that you will often forget it's there - our powerful engine ensures that the world and everything in it starts in perfect sync, no matter what you do - you'd be hard pressed to find any feature or functionality that'd be visible only to you (unless it's your private UI of course!)
  • Edit anything - everything you see in the world can be edited and customized with the game tools - in fact, we built a lot of the official functionality in-game with the same tools that are accessible to you - from the home world, default avatars, to video players, color picker UI or progress bar - you can take them apart or build your own from scratch and favorite them
  • Save anything - you can save literally anything on the platform! Whether you built a new item, an avatar or a world, or made modifications to an existing one, everything can be persisted with a single click of a button. You can efficiently store multiple copies as well - our deduplication system will ensure that any shared assets only get counted once
  • Development tools - our development tools range from simple brushes and procedural meshes to more advanced and powerful ones, similar to ones you find in classical game development tools - except that you can use them in VR with real time collaboration!
  • Cross-world synchronization and persistence - with our integrated cloud tools, you can easily preserve user data between sessions or synchronize state across multiple different worlds
  • Import 3D models - thanks to open source libraries, it's extremely easy to bring in large variety of 3D model formats - simply drag and drop your FBX, OBJ, GLB or other files and bring them in
  • Texture/Audio/Model processing - need to make a quick edit to a texture, audio file or 3D mesh? Basic editing functions are fully accessible in-game - from hue-shifting textures, normalizing and clipping audio to recalculating normals and tangents on meshes or baking them
  • Export content for external tools - as easy as it is to bring content in, it's just as easy to take it out! With this, you can make edits using external tools or make Resonite part of your workflow

Code and develop

  • ProtoFlux - ProtoFlux is the crown jewel of our creative tools - the most powerful visual programming language that our experienced team has designed to date, which lets you quickly prototype and build anything from simple interactions to complex games and systems - with full real-time collaboration support and immediate feedback
  • Script anything - ProtoFlux can interact with anything - the world, the items, your avatar and any combinations of these!
  • Websockets - thanks to built-in websocket support, you can easily communicate with external applications and scripts and build extensive functionality, such as your own game servers, fetching external data to integrating new and custom hardware, without having to depend on official integration
  • Async Flows - creating code that needs to yield or wait across different frames is a native feature of ProtoFlux, with full execution scope preservation - you can even have multiple async flows running off the same code, each with their own unique context, which is a highly powerful and flexible tool for simplifying your logic
  • Flexible storage system - locals, stores and data model - pick where you store your computational data depending on the desired scope and context, to build highly efficient systems

Resonate with anything, anyone, anywhere...


We are a team of passionate developers, who are developing more than just a piece of software, but something that we call a second home. We are committed continuous development, with frequent updates and community driven focus. This project is a combination of our dreams and visions of what digital spaces like this should offer and the collective needs, desires and aspirations of our community.

Much of our focus and vision is on giving you, the users and inhabitants of this virtual universe, as much power and agency as we can, whether it's over controlling your experience on the platform or being able to (re)build anything we do.

It would be our honor if you decide to join our universe and help us build it together. Whatever your background or interests are, we want to build a place where everyone can resonate together.

Not recommended Sep 11, 2026
it feels unfair to give this game a negative review when vrchat is sucking all the air out the room when it comes to discussing and playing social vr games. i think this game differs from vrchat though in the way that this is NOT a social vr game. do not come on here expecting to meet people that share your interests if your interests do not include programming or 3D model creation. that's my main complaint really, the current userbase of resonite are vr and programming enthusiasts and not Joe Average like vrchat. maybe it doesn't want to become that though, maybe i'm not the target audience and that's why i don't enjoy it. maybe it is for programmers, and that's ok, that just means it's not for me (and not for a lot of people) there are also a lot of jank and bugs which makes the experience unpleasant, (terrible performance, unusable fullbody tracking, confusing menus) HOWEVER these issues will almost definitely be fixed because this game is in early access. i think if enough people play this game to where it reaches critical mass and you can join a lobby without bracing to only discuss resonite itself and not Literally Anything Else, then it will be a mighty competitor to vrchat…

Ignore all the reviews that have less than 10 hours in the game, So you joined the game and met some nerdy furries and now you think everyone is like that? I dont dev, i dont create, i dont give a ♥♥♥♥ about that, i only have fun in the game and having fun in resonite is much better than vrchat since you are not limited by an invisible vrc+ barrier, hell even if i got infinite vrc+ i would not play vrc for the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ reason that i cant share my screen, i cant share images, i want to upload an avatar, boom 1 second and its there, i want to show something funny, boom its there, I have only felt pure disgust for vrchat ever since i started Resonite, disgust of how badly they handle everything, Resonite is pure anarchy and everything is much safer and better in everyway, think like EAC never happened but every single person would have a permanent client and infinite god powers, yeah nah vrchat will never get on that level, so fk cope cope cope, oh fbt doesnt work???

I do not have a huge amount of hours in Resonite but I seen it grow over years of jumping on and off and always met some lovely people who are willing to help with anything. Very friendly and really want people to stick around. I don't really come on all the time, but I feel very pleased each time I do. Thank you and I look forward to future updates that make this platform even better, keep up the good work.

After my extensive playtime on Resonite, I must say that it really breaks the mold when it comes to VR experiences. Compared to VRChat (which is the standard for social VR games), Resonite offers much more intimate and close encounters. This is likely due to the relatively low player-count. In fact, I think more people are actively playing games that I'd generally consider dead or niche. For this title, that works in its favor. Dare I say, if more people were active in the game, it would likely ruin the experience. The community is very creative, open-minded, and accepting. They appear eager to teach and assist new players in understanding the somewhat confusing layout of the game, and the features that place it far and above games like VRChat. Though they did seem to prioritize younger players, which is okay. They need to learn too. All in all, I can't wait to play more!
