I have friends who did. Luckily meta footed the bill, but they basically only paid for their own time and made no real profit. And they paid themselves a pittance to make it happen.
They're now making non-VR games and things are much better for them.
This VR thing essentially froze them in time and it's like they're only starting the studio now. 10 years later.
Oh, I'm still happily working on VR stuff, but the Horizons thing Meta has been pushing looks like a train wreck. I learned my lesson years ago doing facebook apps and noting how facebook didn't really offer any kind of support to anyone but the big players. I can't tell you how many times I got viral doing something I copied off zynga that got my app flagged as spam.
