This is freaking amazing! As said in another comment it's so incredibly satisfying with all the ridiculously well designed animations that there's no way to get truly mad when dying. It's an incredible feeling even to get shot, I love the fact that you move a little when you die as well, it's just absolutely amazing! A couple experiences I had that really make this game special to me:
- After hours of playing through it and (due to my extreme lack of skill) only getting 4/12 of the documents when they all spawned right next to each other, I decided to try something really dumb. I shot straight up when met with a room that had a sky. The bullet went up, and twinkled into nothingness. While it lay somewhere so high I couldn't see it, I wondered if it was even plausible for any game to have a bullet come straight back down, I doubted it would work. Then, slowly, it fell and twinkled back into existance. I stood, awestruck, and when I thought this game couldn't get any better, I heard a faint "whizz" as the bullet flew and hit something I couldn't see. Truly amazing.
- The stanima bar was realistic, but the fact that you can hear your heart pounding as you run makes it really feel like you get exhausted after running a while, but it's amazing that you've added the stanima bar falling faster when you run up stairs, and jerkily as you jump. I also love how when you crawl you can still run, but not as fast as when you stand. I really like this elemant a lot.
- The fact that all enemies have specific weaknesses, the turrets have a spot where it will stop turning, and a spot to disable it entirely. And if you're really too lazy to deal with these weaknesses, you can waste 4-5 bullets on the head and disable it. With the flying drones, each rotor you hit will make it spin awkwardly, the other rotor supporting it alone. If you hit both, the drone falls but remains active, shocking in vain. Really love this!
- And finally, of course, the thing I downloaded the game for! The gun mechanics, all the little clicks and clangs, the fact that you can do anything you can in real life with it. It takes serious skill to do anything quickly and effeciently with it, and when a drone is after you, you usually don't have time to reload a whole nother magazine.
It's all so satisfying! Again, all of these elemants combined make it impossible to get angry when you die, you just smile and try again. Knowing you'll probably never get all 12 documents, but not caring. The game is so good, infact, you aren't playing to win. You're playing to continue experiencing the clicks and clangs, the moments of terror at running out of ammo, and the pure realistic and extremely fun scenario you find yourself in. I abosolutely love it. If it's not too much a bother, as it seems you've taken no corners in designing easily one of the most satisfying FPSs I've ever seen out there, please, continue working on this. Do what the description suggests you planned to do, and move beyond other simulators, making this a real game using all of these awesome mechanics.
I know you probably won't read this all, but thank you so much if you did.
Actually I always try to read all the comments and positive comments are always a huge motivation booster! Thank you for that!
Also makes me very happy that you noticed the ballistics in the game. I really tried to make them somewhat accurate and realistic. Theres also ricochets that can especially be dangerous in the container level.
I will absolutely continue to work on this game. Thats why I already got the Steam page up. Really would love to know what your vision is for the game? What would you like to get added or changed? I think more guns are a no-brainer. I suppose a Shooting Range would also allow to test all the weapons in a chill enviroment without any game goal. So that is also something I would like to do. Maybe you got some more ideas to make this a real game!
this is awesome! plays well, mechanics are smooth and the graphics are quite good but i do agree that it is quite dark and that more guns that you could find through the levels would be amazing .
has anyone found a way to put spare bullets into empty magazines or can u not do that? also, they should add a melee. over all though, awesome game for hardcore gamer
Are you playing with mouse and keyboard? In order to add/remove bullets you need to put your weapon into your inventory and you need to equip the magazine you wish to add or remove bullets from. Then the key for doing so is the same as inserting/ejecting magazines.
Theres a damage model to the enemies and you can take them out with a single shot if you hit the right spots. Furthermore I think it's all about being patient and moving slowly while trying to be very aware and trying to move from cover to cover if possible. :)
I loved Receiver even though I was terrible at it, and am very excited and eager to see what you add to the formula. I've been enjoying the game so far, though I do miss the John Carpenter 80's esque themed color and environment. This is a respectible showing and I look forward to seeing more updates.
Just one suggeestion: Find a more distinct visual style? I know it's very early in the projects but the colors, setting and music of Receiver helped make it great.
I just played this game in VR for a few hours straight. While I only managed to get 7/12 documents, at most over many runs, I had so much fun doing so that I didn't even get that mad when I died. This game makes me feel like a special agent or something and I absolutely love it!
Only had my VR gear for a few months now, but I've been playing a lot. This is easily one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had in VR and the feel of the gun controls is phenomenal. I wish more VR games had this level of detail. It really helps you get immersed.
Thank you for your feedback. Makes me very happy :) Maybe you want to join the Discord (https://discordapp.com/invite/ekqXSrm) to help testing very new features. :)
Very fun and tense game. Keeps you on your toes as you manage your ammo and hear those motors and beeps in the next room, knowing you have to time them just right. playing on vive and gun works good once you get the hang of the controls.

great game so far,
i love it.
also, they should add more guns

OK thank you
so Cool!!! but the game its so dark :0
receiver but better looking i guess
and i doubt that you are going to admit that you copied it boi
Wait does he? lemme check
Very nice. Love the effects, the tracers, the gun sounds and such.
This game REALLY needs to be brighter, though. Enemies blend into the environment a bit too much. A flashlight would be nice.
This game is receiver but with a few slight changes and a VR version. It's pretty good.
Whats the music for the game?
I played your game and loved it! Good gun mechanics!
Thank you very much! That was an awesome video to watch. Really appreciate it. Makes me so happy to see people enjoying it :)
I'd like to do another video, any tips for not sucking as much?
Theres a damage model to the enemies and you can take them out with a single shot if you hit the right spots. Furthermore I think it's all about being patient and moving slowly while trying to be very aware and trying to move from cover to cover if possible. :)
My brother gave it a shot!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing :)
thats what she said

Absolutely awesome. Can't wait to see updates, one of my favorite VR experiences so far (and I've been in VR for a year!). I finally got all 12!
Some feedback: I noticed some strange glitches with turrets being upside down, usually around the shipping container area.
Please consider adding more guns, or patrolling humanoid enemies!
Thank you. Thats great feedback and really motivating!
I will look into the turret issue :)
I also got a lot of ideas for new weapons, enemies and mechanics :) Stay tuned! :)
groundbreaking local coop with vr :)
love it!
