About Hero Index

✦ AI summary

Hero Index puts you in a high-tech power suit fighting enemy fleets in epic VR space battles using intuitive finger gestures and hand motions instead of traditional buttons. Its innovative use of Index Controller finger tracking lets you aim laser weapons with your actual fingers and control flight through natural hand movements, delivering a truly immersive superhero experience.

Hero Index is a VR Power Suit Action game designed for Valve Index Controller.

BE THE SUPER HERO!



As the elite soldier wearing the hi-tech robotic armor H.E.R.O ( Humanoid Exo Robotic Outfit ) , you will be on missions of various situations (destroy a small enemy fleet, escort ally ship to escape point, etc...).

Take off from your own battleship, approach enemy's battleship from any angle you want.
Wipe out all enemies with your deadly arsenals.

SIGNATURE WEAPONS



INDEX LASER : Laser beam emitted from index finger
FIST CANNON : Rapid fire triggered by holding your fist
LIGHTNING : Electric arcs that will hit multi targets automatically

ULTRA BEAM : Long range palm laser. Warship killer

BATTLESHIP SUPPORT



You are not fighting alone. Your battleship and fighter squadrons fight alongside you.

WHY INDEX CONTROLLER?



Hero Index delivers the superhero-like flying experience that everyone has dreamed of. Thanks to the innovative finger tracking of Index Controller, gesture-based fly and weapon control that was impossible with traditional motion controller becomes true for the first time.

As a game completely designed for Valve Index, Hero Index aggressively adopts finger gesture control without compromise.

Take the most iconic weapon, the index laser, as an example, for the first time in video game history, players can aim actually with their own index fingers and fire at will without pressing any button.

CAN I PLAY IT WITHOUT INDEX CONTROLLER?



Sort of. With the latest "Escort" update, Vive Wand and Oculus Touch users can do fly control and use limited weapons now. It is still experimental feature so might have issues.

FEATURES



Control your fly direction and speed preciously with hand and finger motion.
No button is involved.

Fire your weapon by open your hand, hold your fist, or point with your index finger.
Do the right gesture, the right weapon fired, weapon switching can't be more seamless.
Again, no button is involved.

Breathtaking epic space battle experience tailored for the unique control mechanics.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players praise the innovative gesture-based Iron Man-style flight mechanics and appreciate the game's ambitious spaceship combat concept with impressive visuals, but unanimously criticize the severe lack of content with only one mission available and report significant technical issues including broken controls and unclear tutorials. The game shows promise but needs substantial polish, bug fixes, and additional content to justify its purchase, with several players noting it feels unfinished and abandoned by its developer.

Not recommended Mar 1, 2020
DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT BUY. This game has many broken controls and too many bugs. Also there is only one mission and it is the worst game I have ever played. I bought it knowing I was taking a risk and can tell you this is a small software made by someone in their basement just to collect your money... BEWARE!

Conclusion first: A high potential game needs polishing. Has some degrees of replayability but still lack of content. Pro: +Using gestures to fire weapon +BIG BIG Spaceship +BIG BIG Explosion +[spoiler]I AM IRON MAN[/spoiler] Con: -Unclear tutorial -Lack of content ======================================================== This game makes you feel like Iron Man. You open your hand and put your thumb finger on the touch pad to fly. Change fly direction by rotating your hands. Just like Iron Man. It is pretty unique and interesting. I can just flying all day. After finishing the tutorial (which can be skipped), you fly into space to fight enemy's spaceships. You start with one ship and enemy with three (unfair!). The enemy will keep warping in new ships and so do you. Looks like player can have up to 4 ships while enemy can have up to 10 (unfair again!). You are invincible but your ships are not. You need to destroy all enemy ships before they destroy yours. [b]I found that using the laser (open hand to fire) to destroy a ship in a few seconds and watching it explodes (really really big one) is the most enjoyable moment in this game[/b]. There are 4 weapons you can use. Interesti…

Hello! The game is broken and doesn't let me move or use any powers, I'm actually quite sorry that i have to make this review because it looked like it was working fine for others back in 2020 It may just be my headset but I'm really not sure! I don't think the dev will read this since the game is quite old but if you do fix it this game has a lot of potential, thats all from Me!

This has a lot of potential it only has one mission at the moment look forward to seeing future updates
