About This Software

Jog in place. Move in VR.

NeuroRunner is a SteamVR companion app that turns jogging in place into in-game movement - direction and speed are based on your intent. Hold a shield, a sword, shoot a gun - you can do that all while still moving.

Open SteamVR, start NeuroRunner on your PC, launch the VR game you want to play, then jog in place. NeuroRunner sends movement as left-stick locomotion, so your irl steps become motion in SteamVR games.

Built for the simple idea

I wanted VR cardio without buying a treadmill, and thumbstick locomotion wasn't doing it. NeuroRunner is that idea turned into an app: stay in your room, keep playing the games you already own, and move with your body instead of holding a stick forward.

Works with the games you already play

NeuroRunner is designed for SteamVR games that use left-stick movement and headset-based movement direction. It does not replace the game, mod the game, or need per-game setup for the basic flow.

Tune it to your legs

The app includes simple tuning controls for sensitivity, effort, and dead zones. If your jogging style is tiny careful steps or a full sprint in your living room, you can make it feel less weird.

Try the demo first

The free demo includes a small VR arena so you can check whether the movement feels right on your headset and setup before buying the full app. It doesn't take much practice to get it right and natural movement should make it a lot more comfortable for you.
