  • Nice job! Took a bit of finesse to get the weapon to be picked up initially. The input could feel a bit more responsive when firing. However, the shield is super useful and responsive.

Wasn't able to launch it on my Vive unfortunately, it launched the title screen but I couldn't get it to display in VR mode.

Hey I couldn't get the game to run on my HTC Vive.
It opens with a desktop window but doesn't launch into VR.

Anyone have any tips to make it work?

Developer

Sorry to hear that. We don't know. We only have Oculus Quest. This is made with Unity XR Interaction Toolkit, we tried to figure out how it works and how to build for SteamVR, but we couldn't find an answer. Thanks for stopping by here!

I've a friend with a quest, so will try and borrow it before voting ends

Took a bit to get started, but I really like the combination of spear/shield. Also, great use of the theme, and setting.

Developer

Thank you! We're grateful that your liked our take on the theme with the spear!

I had so much fun playing this! I really liked the spear / gun mechanic, it was really fun to shoot the poachers and stab them close range.
I also didn't realise you could dodge the bullets until the later rounds, but after that I felt like I was in the matrix xD. 

The concept was simple, but you guys did a great job on it!
This was definitely one of the more "playable" games that I've seen so far in this jam :)

Overall great job!
