I played this game. I have no idea what it is I played. You have this jet pack and you can fly around, until you grab this orb and then you get into this spaceship. That's when chaos broke out and I had no idea what was going on. You can also watch an animated cartoon, which also made no sense. Maybe you need to be on shrooms to get it. I don't know. It looked trippy though. Rate 5/10.

[quote][b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtransaction]Warning: In-Game Cash Shop[/url][/b] This game is infested with a toxic mobile app style cash shop. You will be prompted to and expected to give money/credit card details to the developers through this cash shop to buy in-game goods so you can play the game.[/quote] "Bombyx" is is a garbage tier VR wave survival shooter/tech demo that the developers abandoned, and despite being unable to actually finish the game, apparently they had all the time to build content and paywall it behind ludicrously priced DLC... and the DLC, believe it or not, is just a ripoff of someone else's game (2048). This monetization is horrid, and so is this abandoned "game". What do you do in the game? It's a pointless wave survival shooter with a couple of samey "modes" that involve shooting different kinds of enemies... it's a shallow, unfinished and valueless. The developers abandoned this 2 years and 2 months ago. It will never be completed. This unfinished game is just polluting Steam and making it harder for gamers to find genuinely, completely made games. The graphics aren't great, really hideous low quality assets with a godawfu…
