I debated getting this for a while. After seeing the amount of updates I figured it must be much better than the demo by now, but this is bad. Like, really, really bad. I don't mean to be negative seeing as there's a lot of great stuff in here from environments to customization, but all of that means absolutely nothing if you aren't even able to play the game because how terrible the control scheme is. It's like trying to play an xbox with an Atari controller if that controller were made out of buttered toast.

You can't access the menu properly because your hand will ALWAYS hit something else you don't mean to. Different menus keep popping up, or kicking you out, or freezing, or sending you falling through the map. etc...

Walking is like the biggest hassle. I hate having to bob my head up and down to walk since it's the only way to do it if you're not standing, and even when you're standing up right it doesn't work all that well either.

Going to some of these maps literally freezes the game.

Trying to pick any position you want (If you even are able to make it into that menu without fail) will almost guarantee you won't get the position you want because of how janky the hand tracking is.

Also making the sign to call up the menu just cramps your hand in the end because of how  awkward it is to make that hand sign in the first place.

Honestly, I really want to like this game but it needs some actual physical controls. The whole sword art menu thing definitely doesn't work. Especially right now for how tracking works. This game would instantly be 80% better, so please consider it.  Also, another thing about the way the hand tracking works is that naturally your left hand will just about always become obscured and shut down the menu when reaching over to the left side since the camera is unable to track what goes behind the right hand.  Also if your lighting is on the left or right of side of the room then you'll also get the gesture obscuring effect on either hand.  One hand is always inclined to be put behind the other so it becomes a really big problem with touching any button in game.


Again, I don't mean to be negative but this is my personal experience, so I guess you can just take it as a review. I still think this game can be really great. It already shows with what you have there but it really needs that polish now.

also i already paid for this on 7. January and now I can't even download the version i bought anymore but only the demo, since he raised the price. definitely not gonna pay an extra 12$/9.60$ for an update on something I already purchased and absolutely hate that this puts the bug fixes for hand tracking and the ui in general that he talks about in the update log behind a paywall.

I bought it twice,  as a standalone and the valentines bundle with the other game for AR. Nekuma's excuse is that Itch.io is too difficult to figure out how to fix this issue but yet continues to use the website, despite NOBODY else having this problem and cant be bothered to contact anyone to "learn" how to fix a problem that is 1000% intentional at this point. "You can just contact me with email and ill send you the updated version" Why would I go out of my way every update to contact you for no reason when i COULD just download the update if you knocked off the bullshit? The game is terrible and nearly unplayable in most situations and as far as anyone is concerned not even worth the initial $5 I paid when it first came out, nevermind the repurchase in a bundle (which by the way didnt even give access to the 18+ patch you needed to install)

It's been a year now, I doubt you've touched the game in a very long time, but did your final impression on this game stay the same, or do you think it's worth supporting the dev? I don't want to waste my money, but I also don't want to knock a dev down and just take a demo to shambles.

Well the fact of the matter is, no, I havent played the game in any of the new updates since my last comment, Im not going to pay more money every single time an update comes out because the developer continues to paywall every single version of the game with a bigger price tag. its not worth it, spend your money elsewhere, this is a scam.
