Slackline VR

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/VrtxysAMIMQ Honestly, this is some of the best $3 USD ($2.54 USD on the current release sale) you can spend in VR. The graphics aren't good. The sounds are barely existent. The UI is freaking ugly and the gameplay is super simple. However, the simple gameplay loop is a lot of fun. More fun than it should be. However, this dev has absolutely nailed the balance mechanic in this game. It's difficult, even on training mode. I must have fallen over 2 dozen times, maybe more. Yet, each time I fell, I was improving the how far I got. I was getting the hang of it. This is one of those games that once you get the hang of it, the challenge becomes that much easier. I still fall pretty often, but I'm getting to the finish line at a decent clip now. And even though the gameplay never changes, it only gets longer and more difficult to balance, it's a rewarding challenge. One tha...

'Slackline VR' is pretty much what its title suggests it is. It is a slacklining app that sees you trying to balance across 6 levels with varying degrees of length (of the slackline) and in various degrees of difficulty due to the length of that said slackline. It requires zen levels of balance, but while it does take a good while to get the hang of things you can easily do all the levels with enough practice and patients. The levels look good and the gameplay is surprisingly addictive. Sure, it's nowhere near a realistic interpretation of slacklining because you can't do any stunts, but it is still a fun balance game that the whole family will enjoy having a crack at. Do check out my gameplay video (sadly i didn't record the sound effect, but there aren't many anyway) - https://youtu.be/ZD-I4M69ekc

Only about 30 minutes into the game, but looks really good! A bit hard to learn the moves, but got a hand on it after a few tries. At lvl 3 on training mode now, hoping to do the whole thing on the normal settings! Looking forward to it!

Really fun game and a bargain for the price, i hope they port this to quest. This is one of those games that wont let you put it down until you have made it to the other side, check out my vid here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hO2nbBYoOk and you will see what i mean, Great work

Quite fun VR experience for a cheap couple of bucks. When you really get started, the balancing feels really satisfying. It's also a cool experience to show off to people who havent played much VR before, as the concept is easy to grasp, and you get some of that vertigo-feeling by walking (recommend training mode for this). All in all, I'd say its a steal for that price!

Seeing it was on sale for less than £2.00, I bought this expecting not too much -- I'm a sucker for a cheap VR experience. But... I found something really fun. For sure, there's a *lot* of rough edges to this, and it could do with a lot more prompting and explanation in the game (eg: it has an optional training mode but I couldn't tell what difference it made and saw no explanation), but even at this early stage, and *especially* at this price... it's actually fun and kinda compelling. Seriously, it's less than a good coffee and lasts longer. What's not to like? I hope it gets expanded and improved, it's a really fun idea that deserves onward development. Things I'd like to see: - Music in the menu can be turned off (better for streaming/recording for one thing) - Better explanation/tutorial in-game. - Something that obviously explains what training mode is. - Perhaps some optional HUD to show progress along the line -- it's hard to see how far you have to go on the longer lines. ...

This game is wonderful for the price, it really imitates being on a slack line. However, the balance code could be improved on. It seems as if I hold my arms like a crab man I gain significant balance. When I try to do it for real with my arms out straight, it is downright impossible. Regardless, this game is very fun for the small amount of content it has. It really puts you on edge whether or not you'll make it.

I like it!!
