Towards a perilous journey

Towards a perilous journey is a free VR game that lets you fly ships on your hands through bullet hell like missions. It worked on my HTC Vive system, looked ok played ok, sounded ok. Very hard. Has a good choice of background music to listen to. Try this game, you might like it.

Игра «Towards a Perilous Journey» — атмосферное приключение с элементами выживания и головоломок. Отличная графика, мрачная атмосфера и глубокий сюжет, раскрывающий тайны заброшенного мира. Геймплей требует внимательности: каждое решение влияет на развитие сюжета. Однако некоторые механики кажутся не до конца проработанными, а локации повторяются. Тем не менее, игра оставляет яркое впечатление благодаря погружению в атмосферу и оригинальному сценарию. Рекомендуется для любителей мрачных приключений.

"Towards a perilous journey" is quite a disaster... it's a VR exclusive "shoot 'em up" where you wave your hands around to control two ships that shoot from an oblique perspective (this perspective [i]never[/i] works in shoot 'em ups, but gets used whenever developers think they've cracked the problem and worked out how to make shmups into 3D blockbusters... and these developers are wrong every time they come up with this idea that no developer ever thought of before, several times a year). What do you do in the game? No music related gameplay, that's for sure, and it's unclear why the developer was misleading in their store blurb. You just wave your arms around in VR and look at crap graphics. I'm assuming you have the sound muted because the music is some of the most godawful crap I ever heard. Did the developer think they were going to get rich somehow by confusing Steam with Spotify??? The graphics here are particularly awful, so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam. Quite an accomplishment. It's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarily visual medium, and…

[h1]Before I played Towards a perilous journey, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Free is good.
