Discovering Space 2

Does not work with the Vive-ProWorked (ok with Vive Original). No Planetary bodies are visible in Tour Mode. Can't recommend unless fixed.

For me, easily the most underrated VR game to date. This is the most accessable and exciting space-sim I've played. It might not have the depth of Elite: Dangerous, but that's really a good thing because it makes for a much better showcase to others, and you can just relax and float in space in amazing realism. Few VR games continue to give me that Wow! feeling as this game. This is the reason you buy VR. Amazing, A+++. Can't recommend it enough.

I have a nice HOTAS set up. This game doesn't care about my HOTAS set up. This game has no control options to assign controls for my HOTAS. The pilot is left handed. There are no options to switch to right to maximize immersion. (This is more important if there was HOTAS support to be honest) With a look and click interface this game was designed for phones. Im sure it's a nice experience for those who bought expensive VR sets that want that "Cell Phone VR experience" There is no reset veiw button. If there is I can't find it because there are no control options to find which button resets your view. Probably because they assumed you are using a phone. It would have been a good flying experience when demoing the Vive for my guests. But when they see the HOTAS set up and I hand them an xBox controller the response is "meh" in comparison to the other VR FLYING games on Steam that support HOTAS. I know you think I'm being harsh for a game that is $10. But I would have paid ...

I tried both guided tour and free modes, there was no planet or any other space stuff except the space background and the ship. It doesn't seem as a simple loading error. In guided tour mode, A narrator explains about a planet which seems to be I am orbiting around, but no visual except an empty space. There is something serious bug with this game.

Very impressive guided tours (free flight also possible) of the solar system! Great grapchics and interesting fully voiced tours. Really immersive. The menu system need more work.

Wow. This is quite an experience. It's a subject I love anyway but the whole thing has been put together very well indeed. I'd recommend pulling up a cosy chair and enjoying each of the tours one after the other. It's surprisingly relaxing. Now that I've finished the tours I'm free-flying through space and visiting the sites again without the guide. I'm trying to figure out how to switch the green overlay off from the planet/satellite surfaces which is interfering with the surface landscapes....

I landed on Europa last night and watched a Jupiter-rise. Isn't this the very heart of space travel? This experience rises above the arcade or RPG. The devs fugured out an aspect that is missing from all of the Star Trek games out there. To explore. A true VR experience. Please expand this experience to other worlds within the realm of science and education. Well done.

It's superbly implemented software like this that makes the investment in the Vive so worthwhile! Lots of kudos to the developer for producing a remarkable 'tour de force' of our solar system. The graphics are first class and, combined with the work that has gone into producing the tours, it truly provides an astoundingly immersive and beautiful experience. The addition of procedurally generated planetary topography, some modelled actual features and atmospheric transitions really adds to the experience along with the 'fly it yourself' option! The dialog for the tours is nicely done too and informative. The comet tour was astonishing, thank you so much! The optimization is good too, I am able to run it at 2.0x super sampled resolution whilst still retaining the full 90fps on my 1080 card. Using a base Steam VR super sampled setting of 2.0x I'm able to up it to 2.2x in the app with a good 80+ fps and amazing detail and clarity, any higher and I run into memory issues. I run wi...

This is the title that will give you the understanding on how vast space is. You literally pilot a space ship around the solar system. You are able to visit many planets, dwarf planets, moons and asteroids. When visiting a celestial body you can enable a narrative that will give you facts and known information about it. I'm a huge fan of space and this is the type of media that will undeniably provide the coming generations with a concrete concept of what our solar system is really like.

Potential buyers: Get medicated, spend the lousey $10 and thumbs me up as a thanks later! No one could dislike this if you even like the thought of touring the solar system. The canopy, freezes up in planet shadow, you see your breath in the cabin, it's exhilarating! This is what VR is for for me, being inside the documentary. I actually feel like I am flying and feel Gs at times. To the devs: YOU MAKE CONTENT, I BUY CONTENT! I want more mach schnell. 10/10 I love science!! Last thing this is without a doubt the best $10 I've spent on VR. Haven't even explored freeflight much yet.
