About Rocketboarder

Ride a rocket-powered hoverboard as you blast enemies with your board-mounted weaponry.

The development of Rocketboarder originally started way back in 2016. I had the objective of making a flying game, but when I tested some free-flying game mechanics, I felt some motion sickness! So, rather than making a game where the player can freely fly and turn and spin, I chose to pursue a game where the player is constantly advancing forward. This makes Rocketboarder, in some strange way, a VR descendant of classic space shooters.

Steer the board with your body



To play Rocketboarder, you plant your feet in a wide stance and calibrate the center of your head. Lean left and the board drifts left, lean right and the board drifts right. Crouch downward and your board swoops down; stand up with your hands to the sky to fly upward.

Body Avatar even with no Trackers



Since the player is supposed to play with their feet planted, the in-game foot location combined with the tracked location of the head and controllers can be used to position a virtual avatar. It's not perfect but it should give a cool effect! (Turn the body on in the Game Options menu)

Despite not requiring body-trackers for body presence, you CAN use 2 or 3 Vive Trackers to enhance the body tracking.

DIY Motion Rig if you dare?


Have you ever wanted to have your own motion rig? Do you have a Vive Tracker that you don't know what to do with? Make yourself a DIY balance board to control the game! But you absolutely should have a friend there to catch you if you try that! (Note that this might not work simultaneously with the body trackers) More info soon.

Follow-up to The Path of Greatest Resistance


The Machine Alliance is has returned! This game is a follow-up to The Path of Greatest Resistance, (but no need to play that game before you play this one.)

There's only 1 intro tutorial mission and 4 missions that are right now based on the same procedural template level. Keep in mind that this isn't a full-priced game and I hope people can enjoy it for what it is!

review US FR on the Oculus Rift ( je ne sais pas pourquoi ça marque que j'ai joué 9 minutes car là ça fait quelques heures que je joue ) oh my god the best hoverboard vr game possible , it is impossible to create best control for an hoverboard and the immersion is incredible the game is a wonder please never change the control it is the perfection we can choose to have a body or not in the options personally i love the body option and the levels change everytimes , the place of the enemy , the number and more are random generated so a same llevel mission never seems to be the same the hoverboard is wonderfull and the attacks amazing , and the sword is awesome just one thing it would be great if we could choose the hand with the sword and the hand with the gun controler for the hoverboard thank you so much to have bring us a so incredible experience vr and game please say me Developpers you will prepare dlc for the game with more stages and hoverbards for exemple skate hoverboard as adding it is all we could wish but only as adding to can control multiple hoverboard because the hoverboard you created is wonderfull oh mon dieu ce jeu est une merveille il est impossibl…
