Founders,
If you’ve been quietly watching from the edge of the campfire, this one’s for you.
This week wasn’t about flashy announcements.
It was about real progress. Real testing. Real forward motion.
You showed up early. You stayed patient.
Here’s what moved because of that.
🛠 What Shipped (Builder Journal)
1. Haunted XR Is Now Live in Google Open Testing
This is a real milestone.
Haunted XR is officially in Google Open Testing, which means no more registration walls, no approvals, no waiting. You can download it directly from the Google Play Store anytime:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imyth.hxr0112
This changes everything. Access is frictionless. Sharing is simple.
If you believe in what we’re building, now is the moment to act.
Download. Explore. Leave a review. Offer suggestions.
Right now, Haunted XR is still early. Still malleable. Still forming.
It’s not hardened product. It’s living clay.
Your voice shapes it.
👉 Open Haunted XR and spend a few minutes with your character.
2. 1 Million Cups Fort Collins – Hard Lessons, Clear Signals
On 02/11/26, Chris presented Haunted XR to the Fort Collins branch of 1 Million Cups.
It didn’t land.
That’s not failure. That’s data.
The audience wasn’t the right fit, and the pitch didn’t meet them where they were. The result wasn’t confusion about the product. It was confusion about the framing.
Tickle did awesome.
The pitch deck is now under reconstruction.
If you’d like to review it and give feedback, we would genuinely value that. Especially if you’re not steeped in startup culture or Shark Tank language. Fresh eyes are an advantage.
Understanding the audience is part of building the future.
We adjust. We refine. We continue.
3. 1 Million Cups Denver + SBDC Live Demo (03/11/26)
Next month is another swing.
On 03/11/26, Chris will present to:
- 1 Million Cups Denver (morning)
- SBDC Live Demo (noon)
Two different rooms. Two new audiences. More real-world feedback.
This is iteration in motion.
We don’t retreat when something misses.
We recalibrate and step forward again.
🧪 What We’re Testing Right Now (and Where We Need You)
This week’s experiments need human eyes:
- Does the character feel more “alive” to you?
- Are any responses looping or stalling?
- Where does immersion break?
If something feels magical, tell us.
If something feels off, tell us faster.
Just reply to this email with:
- What you tried
- What worked
- What didn’t
Short notes are perfect. Screenshots welcome.
Your feedback directly shapes the next build.
🌟 Community Moment
One Founder shared Haunted XR with a friend this week.
That single invite turned into a two-hour session exploring dialogue paths and testing boundaries.
That’s how worlds grow.
One brave share at a time.
If this experience matters to you, invite one curious soul to step inside.
Not with pressure.
With wonder.
🎯 This Week’s Mission
If you do nothing else:
- Open the app and spend time with the character
- Reply with one piece of feedback
- Share Haunted XR with one friend
That’s it.
Presence. Contribution. Invitation.
You’re not watching this being built.
You’re helping build it.
Thank you for holding the line while we lay the foundation.

P.S. If you’ve been waiting for a signal of momentum, this is it. The future is calling. Heed the call.
