PowersVR

This review was written on the day this game was released. This game has me pretty excited, it currently has a lot of potential, especially for how low the price is. I've been wanting a cool superhero game to play in VR and with a little bit of work this could be great. The comic book visual style was a nice design choice and the power animations look awesome for the most part. I enjoy most of the 8 powers currently in the game, though they could use some polishing. The game is pretty bare-bones on the gameplay side at the moment, but thats expected for an EA title. Here is some long-winded constructive criticism for the Dev: [u]General Critques[/u]: [list] [*] [strike]Hand representation in the game seems slightly off. Almost as if your real world hands are gripping the wrists of the avatar hands. Arms feel very long.[/strike] FIXED :) [*] Seeing your hands make different gestures for different powers would be a cool touch. [*] City feels a bit empty with no people...

So i bought this game and it would seem that there is no updates for it and others no way of information. I count the game as dead. Edit- So i now find out that the game leaves early access with a small revamp and all promised features are dumped.

Another abandon cash grab game never to leave early access. Don't buy early access games this always happens.

Abandoned Game, not much to it at all

There is potential for this game but at the moment its not worth the buy

https://youtu.be/n9iBqL_6dY4 Everything about this game was looked and felt good. It's hard to justify the price tag though... Graphically the game has a very unique style as far as VR titles go and I really like it. The way text pops up when you start your mini-gun spinning up or the enemies blow up in a great big BAM cloud. It really feels like you've been dropped into a comic book. The audio fit perfectly, from the BGM to the sound effects. Everything seemed appropriately super hero-y. The 'gameplay' consisted of unlocking all the powers and using them against a few static enemies. This is where the price tag doesn't match the content. I don't think I particularly rushed the experience and managed to finish in about 10 minutes. That translates to just under $1 a minute. There are better, more complete titles out there for that price. Titles that won't just be a sandbox, tech demo. It's a well done tech demo but it's still a tech demo. This will be a pick up if you really want ...

The game may be just a prototype, but the machanics are there. And oh are they fun to use! You can combine a locomotion and weapon power together to create your own style. The ones I liked to use were the flying and lasersigh, but also the speedster and minigun. It makes you really feel powerful! Now they just have to develop a story and game around the mechanics and you will have a solid game! It is worth its price, especially if you like to demo your VR headset. Some feedback to the dev: Please let the speedster run on walls and maybe add superstrength which can demolish buildings and throw cars.

It´s not what I expected for several reasons: There aren´t clear objectives, it doesn´t has a left-right turn option on the controller and it seems the game is half done (loading times are ugly, options menu don´t work, you can get blocked inside or on top of buildings, etc). It gave me the impression that the game is not ended

It had great potential but was abandoned by the devs and doesn't even have as much content as a demo would have.

Like everyone else has said, right now its just a proof of concept more than anything else. But also like everyone else has said, I see a lot of potential in this game, and I really like what I've heard about the developer of this game. He recently quit his day job to work on this full-time. That's what I like to hear when it comes to indie game developers. He knows it's a big financial risk, but he's taking it anyway to work on something he's clearly passionate about. That shows great dedication. This is early access done right. It's so often abused nowadays, but this is what it's really for. Buying a game early so that the developer can afford to keep working on it and improve it. And if the developer decides to read this, I've got a lot of ideas for things to add in future updates: Superpowers: Super Strength (kind of a given) More elemental powers, like ice, water, earth, lightning, etc. Acid powers X-Ray vision Telekinesis (just point at an object to highlight it, and hold...
