I liked
this app this. Thought the 360 animation was amazing...But the app keeps re installing itself without permission. never had an app behave like this so rating 1 star .very strange. If they can fix this I will happily give it a better rating but for now I think it might be unsafe to download .
But before I even got to it, I had problems with the very start of the game. Pulling the left hand menu is very hard, sometimes nearly impossible. It is not very intuitive that the button-looking tiles on the screen are not meant to be pushed, but you need to pull the menu from the left hand and push the buttons there, which rarely works. I tried many times until I finally succeeded to start the game. It should be fixed because it's a real obstacle.
Really enjoyed the space experience.
If you're into space, you've got to check out the Guardians of Earth app. It's a fun and interactive way to dive into the European Space Agency's planetary defense mission, Hera. The app offers two main kinds of experiences:
First, you can play around with a virtual model of the Hera spacecraft using augmented reality. But the part I prefer is the immersive 360-degree video that takes you along Hera's journey to the asteroid Didymos. And, as a Queen fan, the fact that it's narrated by the legendary Brian May is a huge plus!
The app is free, so I totally recommend giving it a try.
As a space geek and proud Meta Quest 3 enthusiast, Guardians of Earth is hands-down one of the most immersive and thrilling VR experiences I’ve ever encountered. Guardians of Earth is a breathtaking VR experience which tells about the ESA mission and combines stunning 360 video and strategic skill game. The ability to open an interactive holographic menu by rotating your left arm with the palm facing up is a standout feature, making you feel like a true space commander. A must-have for space enthusiasts and VR gamers alike.
Does not work. I tried everything! It says put down your controllers but when you do your hands do nothing!
Tried it about 50 times. It says look at your left palm. But when I do I see no start button. One appears in the distance but it’s completely impossible to press it. I don’t need this kind of stress.
