The Dark

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/YFXH7Xd25Y4 I really did enjoy this narrative-driven experience. However, it ends abruptly with a To Be Continued. Obviously, it is in Steam Early Access and it only retails for .99 cents normal price. If the developer ever gets around to finishing the game and the second half of the game is as interesting as the first half, then those who bought in Early Access will truly have gotten themselves a steal of a price. Beware though, motion controllers are not currently supported (dev says he plans to support them in the future). However, the game hasn't been updated in over a year. The last communication from the dev is on the Steam forums from back in October of 2021. It is yet to be seen if this game will ever be updated again. However, since it only is .99 cents and what is there is good quality, I can recommend this game. The game is currently about 40-50 minutes long. The dev himself voices the main character and does a good job. There is a nice atmosphere & an interesting story & mystery. However, there isn't much game here. There are very few game actions. You're mostly operat…

I have only played around thirty minutes but I actually liked it. Yes, it is short game (20-30 as of now). Yes, there is not a whole lot to do. But the best part is not knowing what is going to happen next. I got scared because I didn't know if the things I was seeing was going to try to eat me or not. I look forward to what will come next. Side note: Please turn up the narration. The wave and wind got so loud I couldn't really hear what was being said. Other side note: WAVE JUMPING IS FUN!!

I wanted to leave a positive review because it was interesting and enjoyable but then it crashed and made me start from the beginning so at this stage I can't. Intriguing story and cute wildlife.

It is very nice game that appeals to those looking for something different. Especially if you play it in VR, you can deeply experience one of the unique moments, the feeling of loneliness on a distant planet. I had no idea what I was playing before. So, it was boring at first. Later, I was impressed when I got used to the environment while starting to get the idea. If you feel you get stuck in the beginning like me, be patient and go far towards darkness into the ocean to explore. From the small and distorted dialogue between the character and the AI ​​assistant, you vaguely realize that you are in the middle of an intriguing story, and the mystery begins. Voice over is good by the way, and completes the whole experience as part of a believable space journey. I played it with Xbox controller, motion controllers doesn't work. I wish it supported motion controller. Just because I am too lazy to plug an extra hardware into my computer while we already have in our hands. I am looking forward to play the rest of the game.

played in vr with quest 2. this game is a gem. plays with a gamepad. i liked the controls. very simple, no handicaps, vr legs required here. the game is about 30 minutes of riding a ball around on an ocean in the dark. find points of light and chase em around a bit, back into the dark to find the next. light story, very good voice work, ends on a cliff hanger. $1? just do it.

Simple gameplay with a good start to a story. I liked jumping high. Colors were pretty. Would like a save feature.
