About SolarBlack

Welcome to the all-new, out-of-this-world, action-rhythm game made exclusively for VR by a single developer where you slice and shoot to the beat to defeat an other-worldly threat. Immerse yourself yourself in new worlds and experience the music in every pulsating atom. Control the tempo of the battle as you see fit with Flextime. Train your body and mind in time to an exclusive EDM soundtrack and seek out every secret hidden among the stars on your journey to becoming the ultimate legend of sound and space. If you're ready to create custom levels for SolarBlack, we've added custom mapping support. Check out the instructions in the game!

Saber Guns

Slice at targets and spherombs, and shoot your enemies to the beat with your futuristic SaberGun!
This is the first VR game that weaves two awesome fighting styles together in a single pulse-pounding, unstoppable rhythmic action. Combined with a unique soundtrack for each world, slice, shoot, and dodge as if you're in your own personal action-movie scene.

Flextime

Want that extra "Matrix" flair while you decimate everything in your path? Activate Flextime (slow motion mode) to slow down every single enemy and target, and carefully plan your next move.

Location Stages

With 5 different difficulties to challenge yourself across 24 songs, that means there is something for every legend or legend-in-training. You also get to choose where you want to play out your personal action-movie scene fantasy with over 36 environments, some of which might look familiar to you!

Fitness

Get fit with SolarBlack! Looking to add another game to your VR fitness game library? Look no further because SolarBlack has a fitness mode dedicated to YOU! Take advantage of our Fitness Mode and throw those hard punches at incoming targets! Not only does it grant you max score, it's also guaranteed to make you sweat.

Original Score

A single developer's magnum opus. Featuring 13 unique soundtracks specially composed to accompany state-of-the-art graphics and atmospheric worlds that pulses to the beat.

Achievements & Collectables

The combination of shooting enemies, slicing targets, and evading lasers still not challenging enough for you? Try hunting for all of the collectibles while in game on top of shooting enemies, slicing targets, and evading lasers... If everything gets too overwhelming, remember, you still have your slow motion superpower: Flextime.

It's a low cost mashup of Beat Saber + Pistol Whip + Supernatural VR Fitness = SolarBlack --- [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/620980/Beat_Saber/]Beat Saber[/url] is the big name in the action-rhythm genre that everyone knows. You smack colored orbs with glow sticks while listening to music. Solid game play, good selection of music tracks and industry standard hit detection. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1079800/Pistol_Whip/]Pistol Whip[/url] takes the same concept and uses pistols instead of glow sticks. The ballet of bullets and beats tries to focus on letting you feel like an action hero. [url=https://www.getsupernatural.com/]Supernatural VR Fitness[/url] takes the same concept and puts the focus on fitness, expanding what it offers to include meditation and even coaching. Where does Solarblack fall into all of this? You've got the sabers from Beat Saber, the guns from Pistol Whip and the rhythm, music and visual styling feel more inline with a fitness routine like Supernatural. Comparing all 4 games, Beat Saber has the better hit detection and a wider selection of songs than Solarblack. Pistol Whip has the better immersion and action-hero feel to your game…

Interesting game: Full of elements you need to avoid, slash, shoot or use... You'll need some physical preparation to get into the hardest levels. So it can be a good workout too, as well as for your stamina than for your reflexes and speed/reaction time training. Their peaceful electronic music will lead you into strange and wide worlds. Consider use the sabers in claw mode, in order to get a better and more intuitive aim at shooting. If you love the elements I've described here, then this game is made for you! Here an MVR video of me showing the legendary (hardest difficulty) gameplay: https://youtu.be/uw5CVys7FZs

[h2]"Beat-Whip" wins❕[/h2] If you can't afford Beat Saber and Pistol Whip, this game wins. It's not better than either, but it scratches the itch of both. The songs are decent, but unknown to me. And there are some thing regarding the pistol aim, and visual "shoot now" aspect, and the orb slash direction visuals that I'd like to see changed. And, I had to go to SETTINGS/GENERAL/RESET DATA in order to make the game actually let me play. But overall, I enjoyed the game That's why if you go to "LEGENDARY" leader board, the first ~4 songs have me in the list. 😉 IF ANYONE wants to play some VR, or have questions, join our VR group and enter the CHAT area. If you are the dev and want some detailed feedback, shoot me a private message. 🔥►Meet people playing now (in group CHAT link below) 💬►30 SECOND INFO: https://youtu.be/Cg78ailLcrM 🏆►VR Giveaways and CHAT 🏆 https://steamcommunity.com/groups/JoinUsInVR

A rather clunky, frustrating, unexciting rhythm game. That's about as much I can be bothered to say. I enjoy rhythm games, I've played most of them. I really dislike this one.

SolarBlack is a paid VR shoot and slash notes to song. It worked on my Index system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. Has 16 songs and a tutorial map. Has 18 steam achievements. Maybe buy this game, if you like beat saber like games. I got a free key for this from the Steam Curator program.

While visually not as stunning, it is basically beat saber, pistol whip and osu combined and I'm all for it. If you like those three games and also like playing some VR titles that aren't as popular or polished then definitely give this one a try.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
