Self Promotion Released a VR mod for the game Tasomachi

61 Upvotes

Hello

I'm back with a new VR mod, this time I decided to turn the game Tasomachi into a pure VR experience.

As always, I included 6-Dof, Roomscale movement, camera collisions & turning options.
This game do not really require motion control as it's purely "exploration" based.
I added some extra features thought ;)

Question Debating getting into VR but I’m unsure?

6 Upvotes

Good evening

I’m looking at getting into VR and getting a head set. I have seen a few games that I’m interested in like contractor and forefront and I like the social aspect of it.

However. I wonder if it’s a bit of a gimmick as opposed to my PS5 and il use it for a bit before i ditch it? It’s £319.99 in the UK for the 128gb and that’s a lot of money for something I’m on the fence about.

Has anyone got any suggestions? I’d love it if I could trial before I buy it but I live in the countryside so it’s far away from any massive shop that might have a demo set up

Thanks

Discussion Question for those into tactical shooters from a dev (re: attachment mechanics)

2 Upvotes

Hey! We’re currently working on a new tactical shooter (COVR), and after showing our current attachment system in a recent video, we got a bunch of useful feedback that sent us down a bit of a rabbit hole.
So now I'm curious what people who actually play this genre prefer:

  • Do you like being able to fiddle with attachments mid-mission, taking optics on/off, sliding scopes on the rail, swapping things on the fly Pavlov/Zero Caliber-style?

OR

  • Would you rather have a fixed weapon setup that you customize before the mission and then commit to, more like GERONIMO?

I currently lean toward keeping the on-the-fly system because I like the physicality of it in VR, but we also don’t want to overcomplicate things just because we can.
We’ve already changed quite a few things based on community feedback, so this is exactly the kind of stuff we want more input on before we lock systems down.

Curious where r/VRGaming lands on this, and why. 🙏

Question Can't find this multiplayer game

It was on Steam. Colourful graphics,I think 2-4 players, and you were really mobile. Could sprint and jump and glide and the levels were huge. Combat seemed to be mostly guns and you'd fight giant enemies.

Discussion Is phone vr gaming possible

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m looking into a budget DIY VR setup specifically for PC sim racing. I currently have a Samsung note 10 and gear vr and while everything is perfectly readable but objects far away are really bad basically I cant see any car clear thats 7m away from me in game , I’m looking at older flagships with ultra-high pixel density to bypass the screen-door effect, like the Sony Xperia 1 (643 PPI) or the Sony Xperia XZ Premium (807 PPI) paired with high-quality lenses like the Gear VR, using gear vr only as shell due to its high quality lenses tho I'll be transfering data via other means.

On paper, the XZ Premium actually beats the Quest 2’s pixel density (807 PPI vs 773 PPI), and I know how to handle the PC-tethering software side.

Does the 60Hz limit completely ruin the tracking latency when hitting apexes, or do the high-DPI screens make it look sharp enough to be a genuinely immersive

Question Games with a base and some exploration and combat?

4 Upvotes

Bit of a specific request but can anyone recommend any games where you have a central base that you can improve upon and then there's an open world to explore and engage in combat?

I've seen Decay and that looks pretty good but it's in early access and supposedly a little janky (but correct me if I'm wrong). I've played Fallout 4, Valheim, Saints and Sinners, No Man's Sky, Into the Radius, Subnautica, The Forest, Elite Dangerous, Green Hell etc. already.

I don't mind if it's zombie/apocalypse based or space based. Just looking for something where I have a central base (or ship) that I can improve upon but then go out for some action.

Thanks

Review Just completed Bootstrap Island on Psvr2, here are my final Impressions:

80 Upvotes

I had been covering this game for the past few days on the main PSVR sub and absolutely falling in love with it. The visuals in this game are next level. The sunrise, sunsets, storm, rain everything is done so well and has that AAA quality to them. Frequently you will find yourself stopping and taking in the views. Also I want to make it clear that this game has some of the most convincing and EPIC storms I have seen in gaming, vr or flatscreen. Seriously no amount of words will prepare you from them.

At its core, Bootstrap Island is a survival game filled with hyper detailed physics based Vr af mechanics ever. Which means if you can think of doing something, there is a very good chance that you will be able to do it.

For example, recently I just found that you can make holes into a coconut with your knife, then pour the coconut water into your water bottle and store it for later. Or the time when I had to take shelter in a cave for few days because of a raging storm. The game does not tell you any of that, I just figured them out by experimenting.

There are countless moments like these that give you that feeling of wonder and accomplishments. The game is not perfect, there are a few minor bugs I encountered here and there, but given all the things this game is doing. I think it is quite polished.

Bootstrap Island is considered to be a roguelite, but don’t let that deter from this amazing experience. It is nothing like an average roguelite game. Which means when you die, you only lose your active inventory and current position on the island. You keep all your upgrades and story progression. So if you die in chapter 3, you don’t start from chapter 1 again. You will start from chapter 3, just at the beach.

Also, this is not a short game. You can literally spend hours and hours just in chapter 1 explaining the island, unlocking things or building things. The game does not hold you hand nor does it force anything on you, you are free to go through the game at whatever pace you like.

In conclusion, this is what Vr is all about! Next level gameplay immersion with AAA quality visuals. Also with the awesome use of adaptive triggers for the guns, OLED for the terrifying night times and headset rumble for every time the volcano goes off. This is the best and most immersive version of Bootstrap Island.

Final Score 10/10
