This review is long overdue. I have had so much fun in my experience with EarthShape. It's a very engaging game that looks and feels right at home on Google Daydream. If you care about the future of virtual reality technology and the video game industry in general, these are the kind of creators you should be supporting! Great game guys :)
The game loop is simple but really addictive
Solid game, though the cursor position is a bit weird. Aiming the cursor low on the home screen still puts it outside the top of my view in the game. It's a little uncomfortable. edit: the cursor position isn't a matter of calibration. It seems the home screen offsets the cursor downward slightly but it's not offset in Earthshape and I find it a bit more strenuous on the wrist.
Probably my favourite of the launch titles for daydream. Simple to play and nice to look at. Possibly a little bit too simple though. Was expecting a lot more. But it seems like the dev has laid a solid base to build on so I look forward to future updates.
Gameplay is beyond basic, however response from the developer gives me hope that this will improve. Still worth a go!
What a great VR experience! Wonderful and genuinely funny dialog and enjoyable cartoony aesthetic on top of a puzzle game that nicely balances mechanical simplicity with a physical challenge.
Love the atmosphere and the story! <3 Sue Perkins.
It's cute, with nice music, funny animations and simple gameplay, but it may get repetitive pretty soon. Don't expect the storytelling from other Bithell games (which is not bad, just different), but it's entertaining. The Spanish translation is quite poor, with typos even in the credits (that an automatic spell check would catch), untranslated terms and pearls like "aterrizando equipo" (literally landing the gear/team) when you need to use the landing gear (and that's just one example in a vast galaxy...). That's where the game loses one star :(
