WARNING! Neon8 is an INTENSE VR experience. The creators have gone to great lengths to make it comfortable for a wide range of players, but if you are particularly susceptible to motion sickness please exercise caution! For the rest of you who are unsatisfied with current methods of VR locomotion, this is the game you’ve been waiting for!
Neon8 is a fast-paced First Person Shooter where you run, jump, fly, and shoot your way through levels of increasingly-difficult enemies.
Neon8 is like being sucked inside an 80s arcade game and granted super powers.
Neon8 allows you to compete against your own and others' high scores to reach the top of the worldwide leaderboard.
Neon8 procedurally assembles each level ensuring you will never play the same layout twice.
The in/Zexts have invaded the metaverse and the peaceful Mother is powerless to oppose them. Brave warrior it is up to you to rescue her children before they are devoured. The question is, can you?
A good title with some varying sequences. I did enjoy this title quite a bit. Though a tad frustrating on movement, as long as you are continually facing forward, it's fine... If I find myself a little confused as to movement, I just raise the headset a little and see how I'm facing the front sensors (or the PC monitor in my case, as someone is usually watching me). The stairs sequence was kinda cool, and there's a trick to flying; just look up when holding down the jump button! It's quite an interesting little game; I made it to quite a few levels, and I love the nighttime sequence! I played it enough to know that I'll come back to it a few more times, not sure how far it goes but it's nice. Shooting the bushes was a nice touch, I love games that let you destroy the landscape a bit, and of course inside the temple you can shoot the urns! Not sure if the developers plan on adding anything to it, but I like it.
Still ruined... This is a really fun game, but the controls are just terrible, and the developer said there was an update coming soon, and that was now almost TWO YEARS AGO! The controls work like Metroid Prime's pointer controls on the Wii, where if you look left or right, your character starts to turn left or right irrelevant of any thumbstick input. It's literally the ONLY VR game I've ever seen that does this, and it's nauseating! I have excellent "VR legs" and never get sick or dizzy, but this game is just awful! It's such a shame, too, because this is a legitimately awesome VR arcade game! What's even more maddening if that they've updated the game but still haven't addressed this. Have they never played any other VR game before? This game should've been a classic, a staple, and instead it's just frustrating!
It's worth .99 cents. I do like this game. It starts out very well, although it got very repetitive by the time I got to level 9. Strangely, the firs two times I loaded up this game it would not start, but on the 3rd try it started just fine with a tutorial even on the controls. You can use touch controls and they are nice to use for aiming, but that's about it, other than that it's just like a gamepad. I like the movement, but I don't understand why there isn't smooth turning versus snap turning. So you fly by holding on to the jump button and that isn't explained in the tutorial. You basically save these crying alien space babies (and the crying is annoying). You beat down the same alien bugs over and over again. The outside portions of the maps are fun and at first there is variation. But the variation stops soon enough and you're just going to bigger and bigger maps with more and more bugs that look the same. When you have to go up and down stairs, that's where the fun stops. That is the weakest part of the game. Still, I had some fun and for .99 cents you really can't ask for more. Buy on sale only though.
Fix the controls! If I turn slightly then I'm suddenly moving in the wrong direction which is very nauseating. "Forward" should be "where I'm facing" like every other game.
It looks really pretty aside from that. A bit more info on how to fly would be good because I'm stuck as soon as I leave the first island. But that's partly because of the terrible controls.
Burst eardrums and bleeding eyes. I can review this app, but not the game; the app was so bad it stopped me REACHING the game. I actually wish I could give a negative star rating.
Awful music (for morons and children -- but not very bright children) suddenly deafened me, even though it was on 70% volume.
The loading took so long I assumed it had crashed, and the loading image was so bright it left me with an afterimage, after I removed my Rift. I had lost any curiousity by that stage, and did myself the favour of quitting the app.
The load-screen's voice-over sounds like a young American girl, electronically altered to sound computerised in the most cheap and corny way possible. The frequencies present make for just another assault on the eardrums.
It is difficult to imagine that the people who made this app would have managed to produce an enjoyable game.
I play intense shooters, barely customised for VR; I have the so-called iron stomach that is required; so I ignored warnings about 'intensity'. But I have no desire to find out more about this game. I have enough intense shooters, and almost none of them have such awful pseudomusic as this. The creators should find someone that can hum a tune accurately, and see what THEY think of the music.
I played a lot of 80s arcade games when I was young. I still love music in the style of 80s computer games. Monty On The Run, anyone? :)
This, however, uses 90s four-to-the-floor dance, and not the good stuff. It is SO bad that not even ecstasy could fix it. So it does not exactly convey the right vibe.
