Super neat indie platformer with a ton of charm! World and character designs are unique with dark and spacey vibes - I love the music in particular. The kind of VR game I wish more developers made tbh. Def give this one a try if you have VR!

Has an interesting retro look that pulls you in with cute characters.
The music was great, and motivates you through the starting steep difficulty curve.
It's a funky fun game i can see myself returning to when i want a quick VR session.

This game is insane! Just saw it appear in recommendations and was visually appealing, so I had to get it. So much fun and the levels are crazy! Really interesting world they have created here. Reminds me of old school nintendo but in VR! Certainly recommend.

Friends have been telling me to get this game, fun retro platformer game with a fresh take on something like moss, the detail, game play and music is fun to experience, I love how the levels become challenging the more you play. Well done, can't wait to see more from this dev.

Super cute N64 style. Hard but rewarding when you finish a level, I especially like I can see the number of times i've spectacularly failed on my arm haha. The music adds an awesome vibe and I enjoy the characters i've met so far. Didn't get motion sick like I normally do. Looking forward to playing this more!

I laughed. I cried. I died, a lot. Put my brain to the test from fun and unique angle. Also I thought the cat was going to be another friend in the game, he broke my heart,

Discovered this game through a cool YouTube review and couldn't resist giving it a shot. If you enjoyed Moss, you'll likely appreciate this one. It has a cool retro platformer vibe with a modern and creative twist. The gameplay is exciting, super immersive! Fun and challenging levels. I'll definitely be recommending this to my mates!
