Journey through beautifully realized worlds and hone your skills in Challenge Mode before taking on the endless battle of Arcade Mode. Gain multipliers by tagging as many enemies as possible before releasing a barrage of missiles and use your shield to defend against incoming attacks. For a more chilled experience, admire and explore the diverse worlds of DEXED free of enemies in Zen Mode. With global and friends leaderboards to top, DEXED is the home of arcade-style shooting in VR.

Played through all 5 worlds (normal) in roughly 20 minutes and these are my impressions: - Absolutely stunning. It's certainly obvious they're using the forward renderer/MSAA because it has fantastic IQ and not the typical ugly Unreal look. Thank you, developers. MSAA makes a MASSIVE difference! - Seems like it has a ton of replayability (if you're into old school arcade games). Gut instinct says it has a high skill level to it. Hopefully my playtime will gradually grow into the hours, because as I write this, it's my intention to replay this quite a lot. It's a world I want to re-visit. It's a good antidote to the ugliness of the real world. - Just feel this has a polish that's rarely seen in VR. The only VR exclusive game I feel personally touches it in this area is "The Lab".

If you consider this game has been pulled together in only three months by a team of 8 persons, I find it rather fantastic. The game is very polished, the animation of the boss is very nice, the environments are splendid. But don't your hopes too high: it remains a rail shooter, and thus suffers from all the associated problems if you mix it in VR, especially motion sickness which comes quite fast but your mileage may vary. There's also only kind of monster for the moment, but I hope to see some variety later on. Finally a few suggestions for the team: - Find something else to represent your aim, because most of the time I can't tell the difference between the monsters and the aim thing. Maybe add a kind of line/laser from the controller to the target so that you're not lost when there's action - Reduce the FOV by vignetting the screen when you move fast to avoid sickness (or reduce it once for all by adding a kind of helmet, like of you were looking from within a scaphander) - Ma...

Really simple mechanic and it's pretty fun to play. You have 2 controllers with different colors, your job is to point those controllers that is opposite of the color. Since the mechanic is simple but somewhat hard to master, you'll want to replay the levels to get a higher score so there's replayability in this game. Graphics is pretty amazing and the performance is pretty nice and it doesn't lag when explosions(hitting enemies) happen near you compared to other VR games. Managed to do Ultra with 1.5SS with a 980ti. Soundtrack is pretty ok, if I don't have anything to complain about it then it's good. I hope they add more levels especially for $10, 4 levels is not really worth it for the gameplay time.

Was a pretty good game, but... tried to re-play the game and it was no longer working (controllers not tracking) Asking question via steam and via email didn't give any response. Just check discussions section, no activity, especially not from developers So, imo the game is no longer supported and this will lead to issues playing the game. Don't buy the game, unless you know for sure the game works...

The game is short, but beautiful, and feels like it has a fair amount of difficultly setting & skill-based replay value. In the just-over half-hour or so I played, I was able to complete the 5 distinct levels, and give a few of them a 2nd playthrough - though I definitely plan to come back and give 'Hard' another try. I thought I'd do well after my 'Normal' run, but 'Hard' is a whole new ballgame in terms of skill! Is this game worth $10? I think it is- if not for the skill-based gameplay and excellent visuals, then to support more big name devs like Ninja Theory experimenting with VR.

Meh.. Its an on the rails shooter, blue gun shoots red objects, red gun shoots blue objects... This kind of thing was fun in the 90's for some people, but it doesnt work for me. Technically its solid, graphics are kind of impressive. But its overpriced for its content and wont keep you entertained for long, just look at everyones play times. Would recommend if price was lower.

[h1]Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers[/h1] You can view my video review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/WqFYG7mTRZI I am a big fan of Ninja Theory. They made my absolute favorite VR experience in Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. I actually bought this game, before playing HSS, on sale for $2.99 and completely forgot about it. Today I finally played it and I was excited to see what Ninja Theory brought to the table before HSS. I even like on-rails shooter. I think they are a good fit for VR. Drop Dead is the perfect example of making a good on-rails shooter for VR. Unfortunately, this is not a good game. You don't even really aim in this game. You tag the fire enemies with your blue reticle and tag ice enemies with your red reticle. Then release. Bam, you killed a bunch of fire and ice enemies. Now do that again for 5 more levels. You can also activate a temporary shield. There's an underwater level, a fire level, a snow level, a forest level, a boss level, and an ...

It's fun, but the music and pacing is slow and boring, therefore it comes across as blasé. I really like the concept between fire and ice but it comes across as somewhat boring. I will be keeping it and playing from time to time but really wish the developer would amp up the music and the excitement.

A good idea, with an averagely polished graphics (not very detailed but competent, and with two dominant colors) and an on rail shooting gameplay with an Ikaruga kind of targeting. The only huge problem is the longevity: 20 minutes to beat all levels and the only boss. I knew before about the lenght, so my expectations about contents were very low, but Dexted is even shorter and easier than my worst fears. Replayability is just playing for best scores on leaderboards, and an arcade mode than (after 10 seconds of enthusiasm, finally some challenge!) is just a wave shooter in a closed arena.
