Amazing work this one is a lot of fun, I really wanted to keep playing this one but without snap turning I get extream motion sickness. There is an impressive amount of mechanics in this game and gives it a lot of player options and fun to be had. This game could really benefit from a tutoiral as it took me a long time to realise that enemies drop guns and I didn't even know that I could climb untill I came here and seen the comments and booted the game up for round 2. Was there a screen shake feature in this game?(I'm not sure if it's my controller drift or there was a screen shake) I can not express how good this game feels to play, with some polish and a snap turn feature I'd defos give this game a 3rd round.

Thanks for the feedback! Totally agreed. An options menu for snap turning etc. is definitely top of the list if this goes beyond a jam. That and we missed putting a decent dead zone on the right joystick for jump/turn. There shouldn't be screen shake though. We've found it's not terrible to move people around via explosions and quick forces, but we didn't do much of that here and definitely no rotations/shaking so hopefully we didn't miss anything and your tracking is working okay!
Game feel is everything for us. VR is amazing but it's super easy to introduce jank into a VR game as I'm sure everyone in this jam knows XD. Scabbage has built quite the input/interaction system which we used for the jam and we're definitely proud of it so far. I think building out a proper 'boomer shooter' may be in our future. Especially hearing comments like yours :)
