About This Game

void LINK brings the casual charm of early days RTS gameplay to high-end VR: Using both arms players direct ships through volumetric sectors of toy-box interstellar space, gathering resources, building their fleet and going to battle against rivals.

With its simple user interface and mechanics this game allows for instant casual play, where complex strategy arises from your ingenuity, rather than from extensive rulesets or tech-trees.

void LINK is one of the first products to build on the unique advantages of modern VR peripherals (HTC Vive, Oculus Rift) to make RTS interaction with "spatial maps", truly 3-dimensional battlegrounds, headache-free by letting you implement your strategies in 3D space simply by moving your hands through it.

For some optional depth, void LINK comes with a voxel-style editor for creating custom ships from basic building blocks (Laser, Propulsion, Sensors, ...). You can design and introduce new unit types, even during battle, to counteract specific threats, ... or just for the fun of it.


"Enlisted by an intergalactic mining consortium as one of their 'Field Coordiators', the player runs resource extraction operations in far-out regions of space. Depending on their remote control interface, 'void LINK', Coordinators find themselves pitted against each other and engaged in series of battle encounters, where winners climb the 'universal' leader board."

The game is unfinished and doesn't have much content. Developer said he will be going on hiatus. Next update, v1.6, was supposed to be released on 30. May 2018 but it still hasn't come out yet. He is still somewhat active on Twitter and sometimes posts on Steam Discussions, but it looks like development of the game has ceased.

Really good game and awesome concept. As a fan of homeworld this game immediately hooked me. Its very early but it has all the building blocks of becoming my goto RTS game in VR. Moving the world around you with the controllers works very intuitively and peeking at the tiny spaceships zipping by is mind blowing. Also the in game ship editor is a great idea. Looking forward to what the future brings for the game. Recommended !

I like the unique approach that with void LINK you enter the VR-world not as an avatar representing yourself, but rather using the VR-space as a tool/method for monitoring and operating a fleet of starships in a Homeworld like fashion. So in void LINK space surrounds you and you can "float" or teleport through it. You are controlling your ships in this fashion and by that controlling space itself (if you do a better job than your opponent). It's easy to get familiar with the controls and soon feels natural. I feel like a fleet admiral with a futuristic way of monitoring and controlling my fleet. Might well be that the idea of this game will actually soon be seen in SciFi movies. One of the best RTS for VR out there.

Very much like Istrolid http://store.steampowered.com/app/449140 but in VR and 3d... Really well done! runs well, plays well, custom ships (block based system) It doesnt have as many blocks as Istrolid does but I think this devs great and when people start talking about this game it is going to blow up... The price is fantastic.. seen large indie companies make games and charge 30 bucks that were not as good.. buy it, try it, love it!

Wow! Bought this for me an my son. We played 3 games over a 1 hour period. Sadly, I got dunked on every game, but I'll definitely pwn him next time. This is a must have game if you like RTS, or startegic games. The balance of resource collection, and force development is very well done, and the fog of war is on point. It is very reminiscent of "HomeWorld" sans the awesome music score. I have yet to play with the in game options, or build my own ship, but I am looking forward to it. For less than $6.00 this is a steal. Get this game, and help support this awesome developer!!!

I'm not a dedicated fan of RTS but i think the VR/3d aspect has me kinda hooked. I played for 4 hours straight in 'practice mode'.... which i think they should just call single player mode... and add some nice little rewarding indicators when you've wiped your enemies out. Multiple AI factions would be nice too. The game was very intuitive and only requires a very short tutorial. BONUS: you can rotate the game space so you can play sitting down which is great for a game like this. I really enjoyed seeing my little custom battle ship being cranked out of the 4x3 shipbuilder :)

WOH...Hey Devs PLEASE do not stop working on this!..you have something here... as a HUGE Homeorld fan you NAILED it!... in some ways with the build your own ship idea you surpased relics basic concept...infact managing ships in my living room sooo surpased the clunky drag a disc sytem homeworld had to use due to its critically limited 2d interface.. my only complaint is minor becuase i know this is brand new in development and that is the game didnt end after eratcicating the computer A.I. SOOO that being said can you please add more skirmish options for more a.i. teams and the option for me and my frinds to co-op against them?!! that would be solid!. I would never had found this gem if not for googling to see if homeworld was ever going to release a VR version and i saw your plug for your game in the comments of a reddit thread.. i am so glad you did that or i would never have found this. as soon as you make this more "multiplayer vs A.I." friendly ill be able to strong ar...

Hello i am normaly not that kind of a Person that writes Revies or anything like that but now i stumbled over a game that is way way way to cool to dont leave a comment soo i played so far only 1 hour and the game already blowed my mind. it runs smothly, but so far i didnt had much units flying around the controlls are from the first moment on very intuitive way, only an explanation was missing that i have to deselect everything to use the shipyard to zoom in and out is wonderfull just wonderfull, also the fog of war is an intressting approach in vr to the rts it self, its nothing special, you can build units, need to harvest, expand and battle the refreshing twist is, that you can designe the units your self, that allows way more personalized strategys, but wasnt so far able to test it deeply the ai in practice mode feeled dump and aggressiv but since this is an multiplayer game, it is enough for practice all in all it is from my point of few one of the best VR games out now...

Two thumbs up from me! Great game already, fantastic feel to the controls for viewing the play area. A few fun singleplayer scenarios that are quite hard and then there is a sandbox practice mode against AI and also matchmaking which I played with a friend. Really looking forward to seeing where this goes. Definitely one of my favorite VR games I have found so far. Worth every penny! I would recommend buying it now if you are thinking about it. There is a discord for finding people to matchmake with.
