2022

Joke Jam

On March 21, 2022, VRChat announced the Joke Jam world jam, which give creators a week to make a world using a jam-specific Bop System. This Bop System would track the total amount of "bops" users made, per world. This Bop System was an alpha test of Udon Analytics; an analytics system for creators.

The theme of this jam was "jokes" and submissions coincidentally ended on April 1st. On the same day, a Joke Jam world row went live.

2024

Clock

2024 April Fools day video.[1]

For April Fools 2024, VRChat released a video introducing new clock features on the Quick Menu. This clock menu adds a bunch of non-standard and less than useful clocks and time formats.

VRRat Text Adventure

See also VRRat for more detailed information.

Typing We miss you VRRat into your "personal notes" on your profile activates the text adventure. After completing, you temporary earn the "CHEESE" badge and a Cheese theme on the VRChat website. Note: The badge and theme are visual only and will not stay on your profile.

2025

VRChat Home

The VRChat Home was updated to include a spinning cheese with VRRat walking on it, and posters of VRRat.

VRRat Community Takeover

Many worlds were "taken over" by VRRat. Worlds included in VRRat's Community Takeover were selected as apart of a closed community intiative.[2] There were a total of 60 worlds with the admin_vrrat_community_takeover tag. The world row showcasing the worlds went live on April 1st at 2PM UTC [3] [4] and ended on April 14th.

You must be really bored.
Oh, you again?
Wow, still clicking?
You win! ...Nothing.
At least enjoy the clock.
I'm not a toy, y'know.
I'm not giving you my cheese.
Oh yeah, keep clicking. That'll do something.
Okay, I'm officially impressed. Not really.
✔️✔️read
Wow. Riveting gameplay.
Any second now... something amazing will happen. Not.
Not very cheesed to meet you.
Is this fun for you?

Badge icon swap

VRRat hijacked the Early Supporter badge, by replacing VRCat with versions of himself.
