[https://store.steampowered.com/app/887260/Moondust_Knuckles_Tech_Demos/ '''''Moondust'''''] is a non-canonical VR technical demo developed by [[Valve]] to showcase the functionality of the Knuckles EV2 VR controllers. The demo was released on June 21, 2018 and can be found on Steam under the name '''''Moondust: Knuckles Tech Demos''''', rather than ''Moondust''. ''Moondust'' consists of four mini-games.

'''Moondust''' takes place in the Portal universe. With moon-based conversion gel stores running dangerously low, Aperture looks to the stars for a new source of the valuable portal conductor. Take control of a giant robot on the moon, spearheading the Aperture Lunar Resources Initiative. This demo utilizes all of the new inputs of Knuckles and showcases a few new game mechanics enabled by the new controller.
