Astro VR

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/1dbS9zTnmMo I do recommend this app. It's a simple, but very effective space exploration app. You can quickly travel & zoom in to almost any celestial object known to man. You can also manipulate time and watch the orbiting planets or moons, either sped up or slowed down. I would say the UI is a little rough, but it's worth it given the sheer amount of celestial objects you can explore and zoom in on. I also wish there was information available on each celestial object identified. It's only $2.99 USD though so I can't really complain for the price. It's quick & easy exploration of the vastness of the known universe. I wish we could listen to our own music though or watch YT videos while we're exploring. Maybe we could look up info via YT on the celestial object we're looking at. [b]Rate ?/10.[/b] [quote]If you enjoyed my review, please consider joining my Steam ...

Initially I could not launch it on Linux, but Developer came forward and made sure that I can. Fellow Linux Users, If you are reading this review consider supporting developer for not forgetting about us. For everyone esle: consider supporting educational projects such as this, to prove that humans can use VR for something other than degradation. For Developer: Consider enabling rotation by default and maybe ability to select what kind of locomotion to use. I feel like head orientated locomotion can be a good addition.

Shut up and take my money. 10/10

The attention to scientific detail in the environment and the seamless VR integration make for a great experience. There are an enormous number of exoplanets and objects in our own solar system to explore. Once you get used to the zoom-move controls you can smoothly navigate through the cosmos. The AR works but has a lot of latency, though this could be because I don’t have an AR headset (Vive Pro). Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the vastness of space in virtual reality.

Good app. I use it when I am watching "How the Universe Works".

For the price this is well worth it. Nothing like feeling insignificant in the vastness of space.

Fun game for exploring and getting lost in the solar systems. Like that it works both in VR and in a screen mode. Interestingly enough I had my embedded graphics card turned off on my laptop to favor using the installed NVidia card and that seemed to cause a performance issue. Re-enabled the default card and the game still used the NVidia card, but all worked well then... I expect that's more of a driver issue with my laptop than anything else.

movement left me confused, very cool app just needs a better system for travel and planet inspection.

It's great in VR for wandering around space looking at planets, moons, galaxies, etc.. Played both VR (HTC Vive) and PC. Easier to navigate in VR and more of a wow factor than just PC, but still good for PC only users. Highly recommend for anyone that enjoys and is interested in astronomy.

its cool and all but i wish there was a way to find planets faster like a tab to go there or a way it shows you them instead of digging all around the universe and also you get lost every easy the zoom if you zoom into a star its like you cant go back its a fun game but those are my ideas i recommend if your into astromy and just better movement hard to move you look
