Awesome game! So much fun drifting around and watching the police destroy each other except for when they all decide to group up on you at the same time leaving you trying to fight off 20 police cars all racing towards you... Pros: Cheap Fun Addicting The devs are awesome Cool little zombies that make your screen go trippy Simple controls A shop to get upgrades which help in game Other vehicles to use which require certain milestones giving you something to work towards Cons: The police can be a little bit over powering at times when you first start off I really enjoyed this game and I will be playing a lot more of it. If you're not sure about the game and want to see some gameplay, check out my first gameplay video for it.

Need For Speed: Block Pursuit!
Didn't play much of the game yet, but I can tell you, it is a stress reliever.
This game itself is pretty fun and has a lot of stuff to unlock, but honestly, it's only worth it if you get it on sale. (hell, even a dollar on sale will be worth it.) The game itself currently has 25 vehicles to unlock, 12 powerups to use for your aid, or against your pursuers, and upgrades.
bad broken tutorial won't let you continue with the actual game, also the in game powerup menu is clearly a rough draft. 5000 other versions of this exact concept that do it cleaner
Great game!

A good fun game that recaptures the chaotic fun of the original top down gta games. Unfortuately it's hard to recommend for vr at this stage as it's very rudimentary, menus are impossible to navigate without taking the headset off and pointing it in the right direction so that you can see the menus on the screen to use the mouse to choose the options. This also means it's very difficult to see your objectives as they only show up for a short time when you start the game, and you need to spend this time getting the headset in place as the game starts pretty soon after. Xbox controller is also not well implemented for the menus, it works great for the gameplay, just not for menu navigation. Graphics are basic, obviously the style that they're aiming for, but I'd hope the finished product will be a bit more polished, and the flashing double vision that you get sometimes is horrendous in VR, it really does need to be toned down. I haven't put a negative review despite these issues becaus...
A tad tricky to master and sometimes utterly frustrating, but ultimately satisfying once you get the hang of it and move into the realm of adding precious milliseconds to your best time. And who hasn't secretly wanted to ram an ice cream truck into cop cars and then run over their zombie drivers?
