One Giant Leap

For just four bucks this is really great fun. Movement and controls are awesome, the graphics are cool, you really feel like you are on the moon (I can tell this, because I know, of course :-) ) The shooting is not yet perfect, though: When you move, the rockets drift away, because the dev forgot to add the vectors of your movement and the movement of the rockets themselves (as they are shot by a moving 'ship'), so it feels like they are drifted by strong wind. Maybe a laser gun woud be better to simply avoid this issue. But anyway, once you are in this game, you really understand what VR is for. This on a flat screen would not make sense. We played it with the whole family and the kids (6 and 8) still struggle with the controls but everyone enjoys hoovering arround. And of course I am hunting best times, which is quite challenging. So compliments to the dev and a clear recommendation to buy. It is a lot of fun per dollar.

It felt so good to fly! My Game Play is below. https://youtu.be/NbEHblLp8rM

Starts off mellow and gets pretty interesting after the 3rd mission. The game mechanics are simple and straight forward. The objective is to destroy all the red asteroids floating around the moon while clearing the track like buoys in order to switch them from red to green in the fastest time possible. Once you destroy all the red asteroids and green light all the buoys along the track you must go to the finish line which is highlighted in green. There you must press the X or A button on your WMR controller to plant the flag and set your time. You can then move to the next mission by pressing and holding the trigger button on your WMR controller to start next mission. It's definitely a unique title which is pretty fun to play once you get the hang of the flight mechanics. The environment looks great and you kind of wish there was something more substantial to do there like repairing moon vehicles ect .. but it's decent enough to recommend as a mini game title. Works fine with the HP Reverb G2 WMR headset! No issues playing the game.

One Giant Leap is a VR experience that takes a straightforward idea and builds nearly everything around the pleasure of movement. Instead of presenting the Moon through a demanding simulation filled with technical procedures, it turns the lunar surface into a playground where propulsion, low gravity, speed, and experimentation become the main attractions. Developed and published by Sylvan Studios LLC, the game feels deliberately focused in scope, putting its unusual locomotion system ahead of narrative complexity or elaborate progression. Its most distinctive feature is the way players travel. Motion controllers function like boosters attached to each hand, allowing you to propel yourself by positioning and moving your arms. It initially requires some adjustment because controlling momentum in virtual reality is considerably different from ordinary stick-based locomotion. Once the system starts making sense, however, moving efficiently becomes satisfying in its own right. Low lunar gravity allows for enormous jumps, extended flights, sudden changes in direction, and dramatic descents toward the surface. Learning to control these movements provides much of the game's challenge. Se…

You can get real games, not vr mechanic demos for $4. Not sure why you'd buy this. I don't regret it per se, but in hindsight my time is better spent. This should be $0.99 tops.

I wouldn't play this if you have a Quest 2. Controllers register any touch on the triggers so you have very little natural control over your thrust. It was very disorienting and simply became frustrating after a while
