    Exellent VR Game for the Oculus Rift DK2 & standard screens. Full credit to small team that made such a polished and well intergrated VR game with new original ideas. The Dubstep soundtrack really adds to the game and you can customise your control setup quickly and easily before entering the main game.

    This game style is tower defence, destroying blocks to reach your 100% goal. Each time you play alonside previous versions of your self so some co-ordination is needed to be as efficent as possible. you get a percentage score for each area then you can compare you position to other onlie players and try to beat them also.

    A lot of effort was put into this game, the player hud display is well designed to wrap around your field of view and i experienced 0 motion sickness :)

    Overall im very happy i bought this game and the price was under £7 which i believe is worth paying. I hope the developer will release more content in the not to distant future as this is the only downside.    … Expand

    I played this game on a PC with a usual monitor, without DK2. This game is good for VR but bad for a desktop PC. It's like a shooting range, where you shoot at moving cubes and run around a small area for a better shot angle. The innovative part is that you do this 4 times per level, and each time you do this you are recorded, so next time you will see your own copies doing what you didI played this game on a PC with a usual monitor, without DK2. This game is good for VR but bad for a desktop PC. It's like a shooting range, where you shoot at moving cubes and run around a small area for a better shot angle. The innovative part is that you do this 4 times per level, and each time you do this you are recorded, so next time you will see your own copies doing what you did last time. With the efforts of all your doubles combined, it plays like a co-op game. Sounds fun, right? Well, it is for a short time, just don't expect too much.

    Usually you will shoot a portion of the enemies in one run, another portion in the second run etc. Or, since it's all pretty casual and you won't plan much, you will just shoot what you can in the first run, then, recalling what you had difficulties with (like the tough yellow cubes), you focus on those in the next runs, maybe also guessing which weapon will be best for the situation. You also run around collecting loot (small dots which make a typical "score" sound reminding Mario-like 2D platformers). For the coins you buy straightforward upgrades for the weapons (more damage, faster firing, more spread, faster rockets etc). The game feels like an attraction in a theme park where you compete with other visitors to win a teddy bear for your girlfriend.

    There is even a level designer but it's awkward to use on a PC since it's obviously made for people wearing a VR headset and struggling with its limitations. The graphics are bright and feel casual. The music is disco-style; it's good but somehow it adds to the game's shallow feel. The levels are pretty varied, struggling to postpone the rising boredom. You may want to play it 15-20 minutes in a session when you are waiting for something - much like a mobile/flash game.    … Expand

    Every aspect of VR in this arcade FPS is a solid 10. It might be short but you are not paying £50, it is £7 on Steam. And if you have DK2, it is a must buy.
