Taurus VR

Watch my video here https://youtu.be/9rJUArPkcig Afterburner meets Super Thunder blade meets Space Pirate Trainer. Played using the Rift S!. Didn't get any bugs when I was playing. For an early access it very clean. Graphics are retro and colourful. Some low textures, but normal for VR games. The game ran OK for me. Gameplay was fun plus addictive. You can unlock more ships with I'm guessing different weapons. Audio was perfect retro sound. Music too. Overral I like the game.

An on rails old school shoot um up that's quite the challenge. The major game mechanic is movement bullet dodge, the game states standing and it means it. It's difficult to grasp the scope of the game having not being to progress beyond the 2nd purchasable ship, as both the first rookie ship and the first unlock play vastly different on the stats. The unlock is more a glass cannon, making the dodging critical having the shield of the rookie ship replaced by a missile weapon. I found it very difficult to aim the missile weapon as it doesn't have any aim assist, hence the difficultly and progressing beyond the first level as soon as the bigger ships start to show that require more firepower. I'm genuinely interested in seeing more of the unlocks and later levels to see more variation, and to see where they go with the ambitious road map they've set out. The basic working mechanics of the game are good, the framework of personal stats and online leader boards all work. For less than £10 i feel it was worth it, it's a fun 30 mins here and there.

I would like to see the game a little bit cheaper.

Really, really fun VRcade shooter. The graphics are wonderful, vibrant and colorful with nice effects and the sound is suited for the type of game it is. The controls are outstanding!! I wasn't sure what to expect looking at the videos, they don't do the experience justice. I love the comfortable pacing and route choice as you go through the levels and in the harder difficulty you have to work if you want to complete it. I have tried three ships and love that you are dual wielding and also have a secondary to work with as well. The alternate shield option while you are playing is a trip and will take getting used to but it changes the gameplay so that's good. Having secrets in the levels are great and I look forward to getting the new ships and seeing the next levels. Worth the price, very happy to have. Thanks! Just AMAZING!!

Taurus VR is a real homage to classic shooters like Galaga, but all recreated in VR. Having played the demo, I dived into this, liking its use of body movement to steer the ship, coupled with its fast-paced action. I'm really looking forward to seeing the game grow and develop over time.
