GAMEPLAY HINTS

• Weapon grab

Onscreen icons will appear when you indicate what weapon each hand is over. Shoulder items can be grabbed easily placing the hand in front of the face.

• Two hands grab

Long weapons such as the machinegun, shotgun, sniper rifle or the spear must be grabbed using both hands. Some weapons like the machinegun will lose accuracy if used one handed, and others like the spear will not extend their energy blades.

• Weapon discard

Just launch the weapon and it will explode on it's own after a few seconds and will come back to your body. Grenades will come back to your body on launch only if they were not activated pressing the index trigger.

• Sword and knife grab to grip

When your hand thumb points down, you will grab the edge weapon with standard grip. If your hand thumb points up, you will grab the weapons with an inversed grip.

• Juggle

You can launch and regrab your weapons before they autodestructs. This is useful to perform a fast blade grip change, change a revolver from one hand to the other... or just to feel cool.

• Defensive bullet Reflection

You can use blades to reflect bullets and defend yourself. Some game modes are based on this action

• Combo bonus

When you destroy enemies in a stake you will get combo points. The combo counter will reset if you don't destroy a new enemy soon.

• Enemy destruction bonus

Destroying an enemy shooting down a certain weak point can provide a coreshot bonus. Most enemies have some points that can be destroyed individually or in group to obtain an additional bonus prior to destroying them. Experiment shooting enemies down piece by piece to discover how to trigger each one of them and maximize your score.

• Energy color patterns

Take into account that neutral energy enemies (yellow) can be destroyed with any weapon, but alpha and beta energy enemies (green and red) can only be destroyed with their same kind of energy.

• Energy match game mode bonus

Some game modes will ask you to reflect alpha and beta energy bullets with the correct weapon to gain a bigger bonus. Others will ask you to destroy targets using only the right energy or a penalization will be applied.

• Energy breakdown

A wrong blade weapon crashing a positive or negative surface will result in the blade desintegration (but will be regenerated in the body).

• Hand poses

While single hand weapons are grabbed, the pose will be modified attending to your thumb and index position. Some poses may become helpful when using some weapons.

• Radar

If you aren't able to find a pending enemy to shoot it down, remember you can press the right controller A button to display a 3d map on top of your hand. Press A again to dismiss it.

• Snipering

The sniper rifle zoom is controlled by means of a yellow dot placed in the scope. Grab it and a virtua line will appear from the scope to your hand. Make the line longer or shorter to control the zoom level. The scope is further from your eye to allow you to press your arms againts your body to increase your accuracy.

• 180º and 360º Combat

Some stages will keep the action focused in the front, while other stages labeled as 360º ones will allow enemies to be deployed and attack you from any direction.

ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT TEAM

I started developing this game because I didn't find the kind of experience I really would like to play when Oculus Quest was released. I expected for a long time a more physical challenge, with few to no aid on performing cool actions, so that anytime you do something cool you feel proud of it.

The game took several forms until its current state after I played a lot with my friends. It became an easy to use game that everbody can enjoy, but hidding at the same time a set of layers that hard players will use to their advantage or to become a real badass inside the game.

Hope you all enjoy it!
