I wish there was a middle-ground option instead of just yes/no! I really enjoyed Dreamtank and I am sure I will go back in a few more times at least. Interaction is minimal but what is there is really well done. Your controllers can hit objects and impart a realistic amount of both movement and rotational force to objects in a zero-g environment. You can smack things off into space or try and stop them moving all together with taps. Entering the tank is a short experience where every 10 seconds the world fades out to a new one. You can press a button to stay at any world, which I found myself doing only a few times. Being randomly generated some worlds are less interesting or just don't warrrent hanging around but those that do are incredible. The formula for a world is basically a combination of things like Like or Dark High (Oceans) or Low Water (Lakes or none) level Colorful or Not Flat or Mountains or Craters/Canyons Space or Sky That world is then filled with ~10 random...

About This Game
DreamTank contains ten different DreamTracks--the musical score that drives the visuals--with each experience beginning with simple shapes and a muted color palette, and then as the DreamTrack plays on, the worlds become more vivid, the shapes more complex, and the colors more vibrant. Watch the sun rise and set over alien worlds, see massive objects float through the sky above you, and watch distant comets burn through the night sky backlit by stars and planets--each world a randomly generated snapshot that will be unique to your experience!
DreamTank is an interaction-light experience!
DreamTank was created to be something that was observed, something that was relaxing and something that would inspire the imagination. This means that there is no teleportation, no weapons, no gravity guns or terrain manipulators, and this is by design! DreamTank is the kind of experience you would want to do when you don't want to do anything, just watch and observe the worlds it makes for you! When you're wanting some more VR, but don't want to work up a sweat, give DreamTank a try. You never know what you might see.Key Features:
- Randomly and procedurally generated worlds and visuals unique to each playthrough
- Screenshot capturing for later viewing and sharing of the worlds you discover
- Sequence pauser - if you like the world that was created, stay in it as long as you like
- Ten different musical DreamTracks, each with a unique mood and pace
- After playing through one experience, unlock the DreamTrack selector to choose which track you'd like to play
- Support for HTC Vive, Oculus Rift (with and without Touch controllers), gamepads and keyboard
Important Performance notes: DreamTank uses significant GPU resources to render the beautiful worlds you will encounter. Although DreamTank works on a AMD RX480 and Nvidia GTX 980ti, for the best experience we recommend at least a GTX 1070 with 6GB of RAM or more. If you have a system that struggles to play other VR games, then DreamTank is not for you!
High-Resolution Screenshots: To enable 4k screenshots, press the letter H on the keyboard to toggle high-resolution screen captures. Be warned that this takes a powerful GPU, and that rendering may be momentarily paused while the screenshot is saved.

User Reviews
This isn't exactly a game. You stand in place and look around a bleak environment, usually too dark to see much, with a few floating shapes. Then it pretends you close your eyes, and you open them in another bleak, dark, empty environment. There is rarely any color. There is rarely anything to do. When there IS anything to do, all you can do is knock around the random floating geometric shapes that every world has, and only when they are floating nearby. There is so little variation that you start seeing repeated world types about five worlds in. There is no gameplay and nothing to do. It's neat, don't get me wrong, but it's just far too flat to bother with. If there was more variation, or something other than just "nothing is there but some shapes", then maybe it'd be worth picking up. But there's not, and it isn't.
It's simple and gives you plenty to look at. I'm a fan of games like this and hope to see them add more to this in the near future. I feel like it could benefit from more plant life such as trees and flowers to add variety to it. If you are looking for something trippy or calming I recommend this game. Works well coupled with nice music.
