About This Game

Dawn lights up with strange insects in the clearing of an ancient forest. Above you a rabble of starlings flits and starts. You are their guide and their trainer and they know you as Mother. You have taught them since birth to love and to follow The Golden Orbs. As you swing them in great arcs around your head, or in tight figure eights, or in alternating spirals, your flock swoops and flows in pursuit. It is this way that you teach them to feed and help them to live.

Flock for Vive is a single player translation of a multi-user, co-located VR experience which premiered at the Future of Storytelling Festival in New York in 2016.

Flock is an interactive music video with a score composed by Tim Fain and Julien Mier. Players swing Golden Orbs around on strings. The Orbs attract birds which eat the bugs that the surround you. As bugs are eaten the music and imagery transitions through a psychedelic rainbow of light and color.

8/10 DMT trips. Not exactly a game as much as a strange experience. I doubt I'll play it often personally but I think it will come in handy when demonstrating VR to friends. Plus just from a programming perspective, there is some good and interesting work being done here. Happy to drop $3 in the hat of the creator(s).

a 6/10 VR experience for $3. You stand on a platform with colorful 'insect' sprites that are dispatched by the birds following the orbs you're swinging on extendable elastic. As the the insect count goes up there are larger more detailed sprites and background colours change. The art style is different with a lot of flat looking 2D sprites. There's not enough happening here to keep me coming back but it's good to see devs trying something different .

[h1]Experienced on the Oculus Rift[/h1] You can view my gameplay & review here: https://youtu.be/xjIu0eM-ycI I'm surprised this doesn't have more reviews. This is an endless VR music video / relaxation app. You'll see & hear different colors, shapes, & sounds swirl all around you as you feed bugs to birds by guiding them with a rainbow (the golden orbs with a string). This experience still holds up in 2020 even though it's from late 2016. I believe the whole thing is looped for maybe every 5 minutes. There's a counter where you can see how many bugs you have fed. You can also extend the string or make it shorter to swing around. None of that matters though; your only goal should be relaxation. VR and chill. I do think that $2.99 USD may be a bit much for the simple experience that you'll probably only play for 10-20 minutes at the most. However, it is a unique experience. Also, it is something that you can showcase to friends or family that are new to VR. [b]Rate 6/10. There ar...

I love this game, it just needs an option to turn off the music and sound effects. Then it would be perfect. Not that the music is bad, I thought it was cool actually. I just want fresh tunes.
