Omega Agent

Great game little game. Not a huge amount of depth but seems easy to dip in and out of it. I'm not sure a lot has been added over the Gear VR version though. It does however seem a lot clearer and more defined. Played on an HTC Vive. Was a lot of fun for me. My wife also tried but it made her nausious so you have been warned. It may cause VR sickness.

I got motion sick immediately. Problem is the turning right left using the stick. They have alot of options for turning tough. Turning by looking. Turning by snaping. Incremental turning. Snaping or incremental turning did not make me motion sick, but wasnt much fun either. If you are relatively immune to motion sickness you may give it i try. For me, this is no go.

This review is based on the HTC Vive experience. This is a really fun, well-made game for VR. It runs smoothly and has a bunch of missions, new area unlocks, etc. However, I highly recommend to the developers that they incorporate the Vive's controllers in order to help reduce motion sickness (if that's possible.) Using the XBOX controller really turned my stomach after a while, especially when rotating. Some indoor areas such as tunnels made it feel like the rotation speed suddenly doubled. As far as motion sickness goes, I was really beginning to think I wouldn't get it. Windlands doesn't bother me, and I thought if any game was going to get me sick it would be Windlands. But no. This game is on a whole different level in terms of motion. It's the first game I've had to stop playing after feeling nautious (after an hour). It's such a well made game, I really don't want to return it. Hope to give it another go in a day or two and see how it goes, but anyone with a weak stomach sho...

Great game..shame about the sickness. I really wanted to love this. Flying around in a jetpack in VR..I mean, who wouldn't want to do this? The game itself is pretty cool, even the freeflight mode has you searching for briefcases and solving little puzzles to get your blueprints..but after approximately 15 minutes, I suffered that pretty bad nausea feeling from playing this. I suffered a tiny bit playing Dreadhalls and noticed that any game where you're playing with a joypad and have to use the right control to move your direction, the nausea begins. I had this on the Samsung Gear VR and played it quite a bit and it didn't bother me as much as when I tried it on the Vive. I played it whilst sitting, thinking that this would help with any disorientation but the sickeness was there even after approx 1 hr. Really disappointed as I really want to love this..but I ended up getting a refund :( Recommended but if you are prone to sickness..you'll probably suffer. God help the people play...

If you are an old "Pilot Wings" fan, you will love this! It's one of the best VR games I've ever played. This is one of those very few games that just feels perfect. Everything is polished. Gameplay is fantastic. Don't bee fooled by the graphics, this game is all about gameplay and the simplistic graphics helps out with the fast paced movement. I recommend changing the settings for the rotation to "Right Stick Snap". After doing that I no longer had a problem with motion sickness! It may feel a bit awkward or ugly at first, but you'll get used to it.

==Vive review== AMAZING! Second only to windlands for the Vive right now, in my opinion. While still rather shallow compared to non-vr titles, when compared to other Vive games out right now, it's one of the fullest game experiences I've played. This IS, however, one of the worst games for motion sickness. I felt it after about an hour, and I have never felt motion sickness in any game on Vive. Just rotate slowly and it's far less of a problem. It's the ninja rotaton in enclosed spaces that actually starts to get me. I could play out in the open city with reasonable rotation all day long. I'm DETERMINED to get my "VR Legs" so I can play this game for even longer. This does require an xbox controller. It's a seated game and the Vive controllers don't work, but that's not a con at all. I rather like it.

I have a pretty strong resilience to motion sickness but this game broke me. Really needs to use VR input rather than the game pad. It's a shame that's not implemented here. I had the same problem with the new Star Wars. Hopefully this feature will come along as I guess it's pretty simple to do. Only paid £0.79p for it on offer so didn't even bother getting my money back.

After just half an hour of play, I can already tell I'm in love with this game. It's exactly the kind of flying experience I like, and I took to it like fish to water, weaving and ducking between buidings and under bridges. The game is polished and well presented. I have not yet played long enough to know if there's enough depth for the asking price, but I can at least say that the flight mechanics are excellent. I played in Free Flight mode so far, and loved hunting around for collectibles. To be honest I'd be happy with the game being just that if it offers many more locations. But it seems that it's one location with many game modes inside it. Anyway, a word of warning, this game does require you to have very steady VR legs. And it's playable seated and with a gamepad, which makes sense for a flight game.

Omega Agent is basically a tech demo kind of game, it's just there to showcase what VR can do when done wrong. The idea is compelling, a 1960's era James Bond ripoff with a jetpack, you do some micromissions like fly through rings and occasionally shoot stuff, all the while holding in your urge to puke because the developers never saw or used VR before so they didn't do the motion tracking and movement stuff right, but hey, who said you need to know anything about video games before you make and sell one? Steam Direct, thanks so bloody much. So yeah there's no reason anyone should buy this, and plenty of reasons not to, so let's go through some of those now. The game is very simplistic, small and limited in scope and ambition. This feels more like a tech demo, proof of concept or student homework assignment rather than a fully fledged product designed for PC gamers. As such it doesn't offer any real value as a serious PC game. On the upside, the game does feature customisable ...

Fun little jetpack game which seems pretty polished. For under 1€ during the sale i can only recommend it.
