About This Game Ever wanted to throw a shield at your enemies with all your might? Now you can.Octoshield VR is an action packed arena game for the HTC Vive in which your only weapon is a deadly shield. Throw it at your enemies to annihilate them, but don't forget to protect yourself with it, or you will get hit by lasers!This game is currently in early access, and development is paused as I don't have enough free time to continue working on the game. I cannot currently guarantee any future updates.Please understand that the game is at an early stage. It is playable and fun, and has a lot of features already, but not entirely finished. If you want an entirely finished experience with full content, wait for release before buying and add the game to your wishlist instead. You can also look at the reviews and at the Steam community hub to see how the game is and what updates I made. Most people really like the game currently but please understand that it's still early access.Read more about the details of the Early Access and the features planned at the bottom of this pagePlease don't hesitate to post any feedback, bug report or suggestions about the game on the community hub, or by email at contact@octoshield-vr.comCredits:Art by Jesto JoseSound and music by Kameron Rogers 7aa9394dea Title: Octoshield VRGenre: Action, Indie, Simulation, Sports, Early AccessDeveloper:Potato GamesPublisher:Potato GamesRelease Date: 15 Jun, 2016 Octoshield VR Download Xbox 360 Free Enemies spawn all the way around which makes most of the game just turning around to see where everyone is. Then when you see one you throw your shield at it, which doesn't feel that great. Then you keep turning around and listen for the sound of enemies trying to shoot you. In the end this is just a variant of Space Pirate Trainer which is a much more complete game (even though its also Early Access), both in visuals and gameplay. It might just be worth its low price though even if you get bored after 15 minutes.. Dont pass this game up because it lacks shine.I have enjoyed this more than any other arcade shooter on VR (all of which are still incredibly fun) and have very good audio queues(?) so you can react without even looking at the enemy. As it is very early access I'll keep this light. I enjoyed playing it as is for now and already we are getting frequent updates from the developer. Well worth it for under a fiver.UPDATED: It's been 4 months since any word from the developer despite requests from users in the discussion forums. This is simply part of the 'great VR cash grab' of 2016. Avoid and lets not reward this behavior!. Great fun and quite addictive. Nice to play an arcade shooter type game with no guns. The shield mecanics gives this game a very distinct feel. Good workout as well.. Nice little arcade game, dev is very good about supporting and updating the game so far. Worth the price for some sheield throwing action.. Quite accurate and responsive! Wish it had two shields one for bock and other throwing. More things happening with floor. I like the pace of game not to frantic but you can advance with it.. A simple and quite fun game. You face increasingly difficult waves of flying drones, armed only with a shield. You can throw it, Captain America style, or use it to reflect drone shots back at themselves (or angle the shield to bounce the shots at other drones). It also takes advantage of Roomscale, allowing you to dodge shots, which slow down slightly when they get close to you.The dev, as well so far, seems fairly responsive, which is another plus in my book.. Well that was intense. Just finished my first game, 23 minutes of action has left me drenched in sweat and with a big grin on my face. Slow to start but by wave 16 I was constantly ducking and weaving while lobbing my shield like a maniac and laughing my\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665off. I refunded holopoint as the constant spinning made me feel sick but the enemies seem to stick to one direction when it gets intense which I think helps. If you have a vive, buy this now.. I really dig it!I get a total Captain America Vibe from it, especially once I started getting the hang of aiming the shield throws.Some of the text could use an update, but so far the game is a ton of fun and I cant wait to see where it goes!. Really... Demo coming out after the game? Feel like i wasted money cause i dont even enjoy the game, if the demo was out first i would have saved my money. My main issue is its very hard to be accurate, this and any other games that have a frisby style mechanic. Guns np but no matter how much I adjust in a game like this I cant make it accurate. Really wish I had the demo first...Curious if any frisby enthusiasts have played this to hear what they think regarding the physics.
