Jankier kayak vr mirage but with speed. On lower end hardware i had an issue where the head tracking felt delayed and stuttery which made it unplayable, but on a high end computer it's running fine. I think the interaction of the water and the kayak feels worse than in kayak VR, but it has its own selling point as a racing game with the maps being linear races as opposed to open areas to explore at a slow pace. Visually, it looks a lot cheaper than mirage but it's fine because the game isn't focused on looking at things

This game has potential, but is ultimately disappointing if you have real whitewater kayaking experience. The environments look good, the water flows down its course believably, BUT the way the paddle interacts with the water is extremely poorly modeled and immersion breaking. For example, if you are moving down the river at a medium speed, and the current is going faster than you, planting your paddle should speed you up to match the current, but instead it slows you down like the water isn't flowing at all. There are a lot of turning moves in real life that are just planting your paddle in the current, and you often get the exact opposite result in this game than you would in reality, bad enough that if you develop muscle memory from this game you'll probably end up drowning. This kayaking game is like the illegitimate butt-baby of tank sim physics and snowboarding game physics that got sold to the Steam carnival for $20.
