About ThunderGod

Play as the Norse god of thunder and wield your hammer, Mjölnir, in a beautiful Nordic landscape in VR. Save the human village from giants that have come from Jotunheim to destroy the village.

Challenge your fellow friends, family and asgardians to see who can lay claim on the highest score in Asgard, with 4 levels of increasing difficulty!

THE BASICS

  • Hold your hammer and grab things with the trigger.
  • The harder you throw, the faster and straighter the hammer flies.
  • For every three enemies you defeat, you get a lightning bolt to shoot. You will know when the hammer is charged by the blue lightning bolts coming off it.
  • Avoid getting hit by rocks to keep your multiplier high. The hammer will also glow more the higher the multiplier gets.

    Had a good time with this. Completing this game was sweaty and fun. Goes well together with any Amon Amarth record. Will give people new to VR a good experience!

    This is a arcade like wave defense game. However it takes place in a very unique setting and with a unique weapon, Thor's hammer. The throwing mechanics were very satisfying and once you get in the pace of the game, it's easy to get lost in the waves The graphics are also impressive. This game could use a couple extra settings or objectives, but all in all it is a fun game worth your time if you like wave shooters (thrower in this case )

    Game is fun for a few minutes. Needs a lot more depth. Extremely repetitive. It's saving grace is that it is nice to look at. Hold off till it gets some more things to do.

    ThunderGod, developed and published by Goodbye Kansas Game Invest, is a tightly focused VR action experience built around a single, powerful fantasy: becoming a god of thunder. Rather than attempting to deliver a sprawling adventure, the game narrows its scope to an arcade-style loop where you wield a legendary hammer, defend a vulnerable settlement, and survive waves of increasingly aggressive enemies. It’s a design that prioritizes immediacy and physical engagement, making it easy to jump into while still offering moments of genuine intensity. The foundation of the gameplay lies in its use of VR motion controls, which are central to the entire experience. Players throw Mjölnir by physically mimicking the motion, adjusting their strength and direction to strike incoming threats. The act of recalling the hammer adds a rhythmic flow to combat, creating a loop of throw, impact, and retrieval that quickly becomes second nature. This mechanic is simple on paper but surprisingly satisfying in practice, largely because of how directly it translates player movement into in-game action. There’s a tangible sense of control that makes each successful hit feel earned. Combat builds on this …

    This a highly repetitive stand-in-place wave based game where you throw a hammer at giants... over and over and over again. The setting never changes and the whole experience feels more like a 180 degree experience instead of a fully immersive VR world. Throwing the hammer is also inaccurate and often goes over the giants heads. This is more the type of game that you would want to try once but never return. I cannot recommend it.

    This game seems like it'd be really fun to play, but when I tried, there were these large, flashing grey pixels everywhere and it was highly distracting and made it extremely difficult to see anything. If anyone knows why this is happening or how to fix it, please let me know.
