About Holodaze
HTC Vive and Room-Scale Gameplay.
A frantic action workout. You enter the Holodaze arena armed with your power balls and your trusty teleporter to see how long you can survive. Teleport from cube to cube whilst destroying enemy robots and dodging their attacks.
Robot drones will randomly appear to try and blast you to pieces but you can fight back by throwing your power balls in their faces!
The one catch is, when you teleport, you can teleport to any face of the cube which shifts your orientation in the Holodaze arena so now when you throw, gravity is working against you. In easy mode and normal mode you have a helpful reminder of which cube face you're standing on. Green is the top of the cube, Red is the bottom of the cube, Blue is any of the sides of the cube..... Stay on the green to make your life easy!
If you're on the underneath of a cube, then throwing up is just throwing down!
Three levels of difficulty mean casual gamers can enjoy whilst hardcore addicts can try the hard mode for a real challenge.
There are also powerups to make your life easier. The red powerball can be shot like a laser (no need to throw that bad boy), the triple shot gives you three balls, and the confusion causes the robots to malfunction.
How long can you last in the Holodaze arena?
Get your throwing arm ready!

✦ AI summary
Players are divided on this budget title. Supporters praise its challenging gameplay mechanics, affordable price, and fun factor despite its simplicity, while detractors criticize the overall polish, calling it unfinished and complaining about annoying voice lines, disorienting gravity mechanics, and poor value proposition. The game appears to appeal primarily to players seeking a difficult arcade-style experience on a tight budget, but struggles to satisfy those expecting more refined production quality.
It looks like a game made in one day. I know the game is cheap but come on, it doesn't worth 3€. The voice is anoying, the gravity is anoying, everything is anoying ... Even the positive reviews looks fake. No, it's not a "top 5" game. It's not fun at all.5 found this helpful
This is a game where you throw balls at round enemy robots who are trying to shoot you and you can teleport to a series of cubes (the internet is not a big truck... it's a series of cubes!) and depending on where you teleport, you're standing on a different cube face facing a different direction. It's all very disorienting and kinda disturbing. I only played the easiest mode (yeah yeah, call me a wimp if you must) where you don't have to throw the balls, you just aim in the direction and fire and it goes that way. I did OK, but I found that I really had to keep teleporting or I got killed. Speaking of that, when you die, you only had the one life so that's it. Then a creepy robotic voice says "you died! Game over man" or "they killed you!" "You got shot!" or some other line. I guess it's amusing...sorta. The graphics are really basic. Cubes to land on and stand on, some spacy looking background, round enemy robots that don't move, they just teleport in and eventually locate you and shoot. Oh and it seems the cubes can be destroyed so that means eventually if you survived for long enough, the places to run to might dwindle to nothing. It seemed to me that this game was pro…4 found this helpful
