  • Solid work! I really like the art, and control scheme. Would've loved to see more levels if time permitted.

Wonderful artwork, and premise. I hope you get the time to pursue this project further.

Developer

Andrew hi! This coming from you is a treat. 

yes, i am clearing my path so that i get time to work on the game. my goal is to get the polished version by June 3rd. Good motivator this VR game jam was!

Developer

ooh and about the 2D art style...that was such a pain to setup. i wasted so much time drawing objects in perspectives but they are not coming right because this is 6DOF so User head is not just on a swivel but also translating.

                    i chose TBS system for many design reasons but it also helped in making Players keep their head locked , even the CamCorder mechanics demanded the Players to be stable to focus on the tiles and the threats. but, i guess i will have to find better format or perspective to draw 2D.  i will build this 2D in VR as my signature style.

-and again, thanks for appreciating the artwork, that made it absolutely worth it.

You're quite welcome! I honestly didn't even realize the difference in tracking. That does explain how it wasn't difficult to align your view up with the camera.

Developer

Hi, i am not able to update my build here. 

what seems to be the problem? Is it not allowed to update the builds when the jam is over?

Jam HostSubmitted

I believe you're only able to update your build via the game's page, rather than the jam entry.

Developer

Are you able to update your entry?  I can change my other game but no for this game no files can be added

Jam HostSubmitted

From the looks of it, Yes. I get the "Upload Files" button on my game's page.

Developer

Everytime i upload a new APK ( i submitted for Oculus Quest) it doesn't upload. What can I do now? 

Jam HostSubmitted

I'm not sure. Have you tried uploading it on a new game page as a test? Or, do you know if it's your connection? I was able to upload another file to my own page without an issue.

Developer

okay, i found the issue, it is the APK package. All cool now!

Thanks for all the responses, VR ANDREW!

I know you didn't get much time to finish this off but love the concept. So much so I featured it in my top VR jam games of 2020. Best of luck with the judging: 

Developer(+1)

Such understanding words! Thank you for the support and for featuring my work. 

i am now certainly motivated to finish the title for SideQuest by 3rd June. my job burns through all the time i have in my hand and it is an issue squeezing time for my passion. Thank you for the motivation and for making my day AWESOME!

HTC Vive User here: sadly cant play your game - looks promising. Did you create it with SteamVR?

Thanks for your submission!

While you are here reading this: I've tried to play yours, please check my game out in the button below. I wonder if you can play it with your headset.

Developer


i don't have an Oculus Link cable to play SteamVR games. In the office i have access to many headsets but i don't think i am going to office any sooner.  Also, this inability to connect to the PC ate up too much development time.

But the gameplay video you uploaded gave me the impression that it is a polished title. This character in your game is interesting and i like how it sits on the left forearm.

Submitted

It sits on my left hand for respawning in the levels. Kind of easy to implement, and a huge game changer.

Really cool 2D style, well done. Also wouldn't have ever thought turned based VR horror in 2D would work but it does, and I am sure you can do so much more with it. Originality at it's best right there. 

Developer

inspiring thanks! the 2D setup and coming up with a multi-purpose use for camera did cost me 3-4 days. Remaining time was burnt in designing puzzle generator for the idea of a Turn based Horror game. 
Glad that i had a backup file to upload which i uploaded right when the Jam ended!!
