It's really good and I'm 99% sure its just one guy making it so it's not got any manufactured-ness things in it:sans:

Why are you judging the game by its graphics, don't judge a book by its cover come on !
It's phenomenal, I've already beaten it once and i'm now slowly training myself up to use extreme spin mode. The movement really is just something else and it makes the whole game.
I'm more curious about your first time playing the game? How do you not throw up based on the trailer it looks like you can do some pretty insane stuff. Infinte spinning etc. Do you think its possible to paint your walls in vomit if you go crazy with it?

Its like attack on titan, quake 1, and tony hawk pro scater had a threesome and this game was the result. you will feel sick if you dont have good vr legs but that is a simple obstical to overcome. also quake 1 has similar graphics and even though that came out in late 1990s, it still is a good game. dont judge a book by its cover.
its not entirely like the trailer, unless you enable extreme spin mode your viewpoint it locked up right.
That said even without that on it took some working up for me as im still quite new to VR. My review actually says i fell over irl the moment i got on the board. It takes some getting used to but its fun as hell once you do

In case you still haven't decided, while the graphics are a bit flat, the sensation of sliding down hills at high speed and pulling off insane momentum-based jumps is unlike anything I've ever played before. Add in grapple hooks to swing around obstacles or even remain entirely airborne and it is fantastic! My favorite mini-boss to fight is actually *under* the map so you have to constantly grapple to the flying enemy itself or risk falling into the abyss

The graphics suck but jumping on a hoverboard and zooming around with jet hands and grappling hooks is actually cool as ♥♥♥♥.

You can't always tell how good a VR game is until you are "inside it" and experience the motion and space. You experience it in ways that aren't just due to visual detail.

Or put simply, it is about as close as you can get to feeling like you are soaring through the air while you are actually just standing in a room.

For me it's like Death Stranding. Concept looks boring/tired. BUT, when you play it, it's insanely fun or just really weird, and interesting.

Don't let the graphics put you off - once you're in it's fantastic.

I don't think it's that great but it's not bad enough for me to leave a bad review either. it's basically just a sandbox where you surf around. its fun but doesn't really have any lasting appeal imo

I refunded. Maybe its because ive been playing vr games for like 6 years now, but this game has nothing to it. I had the same questions the OP had, but saw great reviews, so I bought it.

The graphics were simple, had bad controls, weak gun, boring sandbox level, and I wasn't really wowed by the sense of speed. I played for a while and was like, "this is it?". Before somebody attacks me, its just my opinion, im allowed to not like it. I encourage people to try it for themselves and refund if it isnt good.
