    As for game length yes its short, at least for now. But for the price its asking i think this was a pretty solid experience. It had very goodAs for game length yes its short, at least for now. But for the price its asking i think this was a pretty solid experience. It had very good mechanics, good look and it was very fun to play. More maps on the way cant do anything but to improve it as well. The game does support Motion Controls which always is a huge bonus in my opinion.

    I have played Tethered, and i even though this game was a very short demo, i enjoyed it much more than Tethered thanks to the Motion Controls, the interaction with the world and character and i enjoyed the idea of controlling the thumb with the Move button to pinch.

    For 3 Dollars this is a good example of a God game in VR    … Expand

    What a lovely little game. Shame it was soooooo short, byt for $3, you really cant complain too much. The graphics feel solid, and lookWhat a lovely little game. Shame it was soooooo short, byt for $3, you really cant complain too much. The graphics feel solid, and look beautiful. I love blocking the meteors with my hands, as you watch them fly in from outer space. Can't wait for more content (2 more levels say "Coming Soon") Just wonder if I'll have to pay more for the privilege.… Expand

    There are 3 planets ($4+$3+$3=$10) for now with totally different experience, which really shines compared to its early version.    … Expand

    Let me start by saying this game feels like a demo. You will probably get about 15-30 minutes out of it at most, but it is also only 3Let me start by saying this game feels like a demo. You will probably get about 15-30 minutes out of it at most, but it is also only 3 dollars. I bought this game because i am very hyped for the God-Sim style of VR games. Other than Tethered, this is the only one on the market for PSVR right now. Tethered is very fun, but the mechanics in O! My Genesis are closer to what i was looking for (where you actually have hands and can interact with the world with them). I can see the potential this game holds, but as of right now its a bit lacking. The 3 dollars will give you access to the tutorial world and then one world after that. It took me about 20 minutes to get through both of them. At the end there are 2 planets that are blacked out that say coming soon. I don't know if this indicates they will be releasing the game in episodes, or if they are going to update it later on and right now the lower price is essentially for like a "Beta" version of the game. In any case the game mechanics are there, and it is fun. It just doesn't quite feel polished though. The scenery of space behind the planets is a bit bland other than the other planets you can see off in the distance. I also had a few move controller tracking issues with it (more than i normally have in other games). Overall, it was fun while it lasted and I can see the potential. I just hope that they continue to update the game and add more to it, but I would not like to see them taking the direction of paying a couple dollars each time they make a new planet with new goals. We will see!… Expand

    The game should have been given as a free game to demo for ps4 vr users instead of a paid demo.    … Expand

    I get £2.50 is not allot of money, however what I got once I paid for it was little more than a demo, not a full game. There is one training level and then another (mostly) training level to follow-up then you are expected to pay more for the other levels! :-o

    The gameplay is grate fun, but had I known I was Paying for a demo (I don't care what the developers call it, it's a two level demo, end of) I would never have bothered.

    I completed the initial content in under 30 minutes after having never played it before. This is not enough content even for only £2.50.

    I feel conned quite frankly and refuse to pay a further £2.50 for each extra level if they are only going to just be another 15 minute demo of a full gaming experience. :-(

    Very disappointed.    … Expand
