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 Activation Code [key Serial Number] 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.. 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.. 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. This is my favorite VIVE game so far (I have about 25). Just be prepared for a true workout as you get better at it. Tonight I made it to wave 26 and was sweating like no other! This is truely a mix of Tron discs and Captain America's shield. At about level 15 it starts getting really intense with dodging, shields up, spinning around and throwing your shield. I will say that the controls when launching the disc still don't feel absolute. About 80% of the time I hit my target but there are times when you KNOW you launched correctly and the disc didn't do what you want. Kind of like Wii or Move controllers. When this gets fixed, I will be in heaven.I am really looking forward to where this game goes next! BRAVO!!!!. This game has that captain America meets tron vibe going on. It's fun to play now and I'm looking forward to updates. Nice work so far Dev!Some suggestions. Duel shields. Different enemiesAbility to smash the bad guys when they get too close. Better collision when shield flies into the enemy instead of flying throughA more discs of tron style arenaSome advice to all the wave based arcade style games in development. Please give us players a way to pick our starting level because it gets kind of old to start from level one every time.. Tron meets Captain America. I just wish there was a global leaderboard so I could see how I match up.... 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!. Download the demo, it's free and has all the game mechanics in it. You don't gain anything by picking up the early access game which has seen no attention from the dev shortly after it went live. Look at the "eary access game" notes from the developer written in June of 2016 and feel free to browse the trello board ( http:\/\/trello.com\/b\/oOCNIEaS ) listing the tasks he was planning on but never got around to:Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?\u201cThe game will be in Early Access for at least a month, until it has proper assets (sound, graphics), as well as more content.It's a shame I can't recommend this game; it missed all of its early access milestones. It seems the developer had great ideas to make the game more fun.
