This is going to be an awesome game....I just know it. All the Dev needs to do is fix the physics. The controls are fine for the HTC Vive. Please fix the physics. Currently, the puck only bounces off the walls once, then it tends to stick to the sides, and just follow the wall. The puck needs to bounce more off of the walls. Fix this, and it will be golden.

This was a really nice little game, I'm only about an hour in and it was pretty fun. It's definitely in it's early stages but if the devs deliver on the full release notes it's gonna be a really cool game. If you like air hockey and some twists on the subject id recommend it. The pinball mode was the most fun for me. It would be really awesome to play this game in multiplayer with some global leader boards as well.
[h1]Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers[/h1] You can view my review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/eHozr_ojDpo I really wanted to like this game. It seems like a silly air hockey game with different modes and it's only 4 bucks. It should be fun. And it is fun, when it works. However, that's the problem. I encountered several different issues during my little over an hour of gameplay. For those of you looking for an air hockey simulation game, this isn't it. It's definitely arcade. The table seems kind of small in VR and it has curved edges versus the hard edges professional air hockey tables would have. It honestly looks like a kid's mini air hockey table. You cannot hold the mallet the way a professional would. Instead, you just press trigger and your hand avatar model disappears and is replaced with the mallet. There are 5 different modes: standard, fun, crash, tournament, and pinball with three different difficulties: easy, medium, and hard. I really enjoye...
My wife is mostly uninterested in VR gaming, but somehow THIS was the game that got her hooked. It's honestly the best VR air hockey game I've found thus far, which is due to its fun factor and tropical setting. The pusher and pucks will change based on a special bonus coin that appears on the board. Sometimes pineapples or coconuts will pile onto the board as obstacles (at least in "fun" mode). There are normal modes as well if you prefer a more serious match (I don't). It's brilliantly simple and addictive. Seriously, this is one of my favorite VR games.
Dead game, will be Early Access forever
I've never played a game like this before, I bought it in a package with Basket at a discount at a lower price. The overall game experience is really good as well the first word I think of when it comes to this game is "Exotic" :D I couldn't help but notice that in the last update, a lot was done on the movement of the puck and on his behavior at the table, which I would especially point out as a good thing, and also added my currently favorite pro table. See you on the scoreboard !!!
Runs like crap on Rift S :(
+ Fun + Quirky + Cheap - Not much to do - Not great at this point 2.5/5 -----IF THIS COULD BE NEUTRAL IT WOULD BE----- This game is quite lacking at the moment, the hockey itself at times feels clunky, there's no multiplayer, it gets stale after a few minutes. And other games offer a similar or better experience and more than just one thing.

So i got this game in a bundle and on sale, and i played it for about an hour, i found it really addictive trying to beat the AI and all the fun modes this game has. I loved the crazy little characters and graphics were also enjoyable, the music was really relaxing too, so it was a very pleasant experience! I always loved playing air hockey so this was a must for me :) I would absolutely love this game if it had multiplayer so that i can play with my friends! As much as i can see the devs are still developing this game so i have high hopes for the final version! Get it guys, it's really a steal.
This is a fun game that could clearly be something special with some additional polish. The core air hockey gameplay is fun even though the physics and tracking aren't quite spot on, and in one instance the CPU just froze up entirely. Graphics are solid and the gimmick modes are enjoyable - especially "crash" - but the lack of online MP and leaderboards are a shame. I'll definitely return to this if it gets updated with these modes. At present it doesn't have a ton of replay value but is definitely a solid shout for £1.50.
