About Nano Nebula
Nano Nebula is a relaxing game about discovering new creatures and environments while you travel between procedurally generated tiny-planets. You play as an astronaut in a deep-space mission, sent to colonize the galaxy. But upon waking from cryosleep, you find your crew is missing and humanity has almost vanished. Find out what happened - and save your crew - as you explore an endless galaxy. If you're looking to discover new creatures, explore unique environments, solve ancient puzzles, or battle formidable foes, this is the game for you!


- Explore.
Procedurally generated planets to explore in VR. Every world is unique, but not random or messy. Adventure in grassy fields, scorching deserts, boreal forests, vast oceans, poisonous swamps, frozen wilderness, and dangerous volcanic planets. - Battle.
Engage in combat against a wide variety of alien life. Giant space-squids, sand worms, elemental dragons, ancient weaponry, golems, slimes, ancient sages, phantoms and more await you. - Discover.
Record your discoveries using the "Discovery Camera." Take pictures of every new creature, item, and location you find to log it in your Discovery Log. - Upgrade.
Upgrade your ship and your gear. Find specialized space-suits to increase your resistance to certain elements. Build technology like teleporters and fuel-extractors to improve your mobility. - Zero-Gravity.
Zero-gravity gameplay. Propel yourself through the vacuum of space in order to loot old spaceships, mine resources on asteroids, and attack alien nests in zero-gravity. - Locomotion.
Free (touchpad/joystick) locomotion, with a variety of comfort options. Teleportation is not available, but comfort options are very helpful if you are prone to motion sickness. Comfort options include a floor grid, a spherical grid around the playspace, and a marker for the room center. Each can be configured to appear constantly, or dynamically based on the movement circumstance. - Save Files.
Up to four save files. If you share a VR headset with family or friends, they can play on their own save file. - Music.
A large and high-quality soundtrack by Antti Luode. Enjoy over 45 tracks as you explore and battle.

✦ AI summary
Nano Nebula is a cozy space exploration VR game with charming visuals and creative world-building that some players enjoy. However, the game suffers from significant technical issues including broken controller support for certain headsets (particularly Index controllers), lack of customizable control mapping, and progression-blocking bugs like missing exit wormholes in generated solar systems, combined with an apparently inactive developer making it difficult to recommend.
2 Minute Video Review → https://youtu.be/yD-2TAi1Jk4 Nano Nebula is a space exploration adventure. You're the captain of a ship and as you depart for your mission your crew has been abducted by an evil Pac-Man like creature. So you're off to the search the galaxy for your missing crew. On your ship you have a miniature 3D map of all the planets you can visit. Reach out and touch a destination and your ship begins to travel there. The travel is in real time so you have to wait to get to your destination. But as you explore you'll find CDs, and if you put a CD in your ship you get to enjoy some music as you travel. Once you're orbiting a planet you can beam down to the surface to explore. At your disposal are a laser gun, a teleporting device to return to the ship, a space propulsion device, and a camera. Using the camera to take pictures of various animals and people that you find on your journey kind of reminded me of Pokémon snap, if you remember that old game. There's no spoken dialogue so you'll be doing a lot of reading in this game. One thing I wish for is a mini map for the planets or some kind of a Compass or marker for goals. For example when I walked up to a person …14 found this helpful
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU USE THE KNUCKLES (Index) CONTROLLERS. You will be unable to move or control yourself at all past the tutorial. It might actually be a really fun game, and I will remove the negative review once this is fixed, but until then, "Pretty Okay Games" should get a rename to "Non-Functional Games."

Apparently there's a design flaw where you can warp to a new solar system and it doesn't generate an exit wormhole. Now I'm in a dead end system and can't progress. 7 hrs down the toilet. Dev is inactive on the boards. Avoid.6 found this helpful
[h1]Experienced on the HP Reverb G2 using the Oasis Driver for Windows Mixed Reality and on the Meta Quest 3[/h1] You can view my VR gameplay & impressions here: https://youtu.be/SIE1IEhlY2M This is a very cozy, super cute, space exploration game with a bit of depth behind it as well. There is a lot to do. It's a simple game though. If the thought of visiting a cat planet and speaking to a huge Spirit cat interests you, then this may be the game for you. Beware though, this is a VR game from 2018 and it shows in several ways. First of all, there is no artificial turning (no smooth or snap turning). You have to turn in real life. If you remember VR games from back in the day, there were many games without turning (back when the HTC Vive was still a viable VR headset). Those days are long gone now, but there's still old VR games like that. Many of the VR interactions are also very basic. The inventory system is out-dated as well with menus to cull through. Still, the art style is lovely. I especially liked the underwater planet with lots of fishes and turtles. I wish I could find it again! Space is vast and there's lots to explore. Just know that there is a lot of repetition. Som…5 found this helpful
No controller mapping, got into the game and some controls for my index controller weren't mapped properly, I went in to the game settings to see what I could switch around and yeah.... there is no custom mapping. I reloaded the game and it took me to a different place, I assume the tutorial and I couldn't move at all, I could access the in game menu and go to settings just to realize that there is no button mapping and that I can't move or do anything. I couldn't even play the game because the settings were so jank. For a good VR experience it should be nice and easy to customize your stuff to be able to play but this game made it brutally difficult and I didn't have the patience to spend more than 30 minutes trying to make it work.4 found this helpful
