Games ≫ ARK and ADE

For a while now I was wondering when I would be able to play a shooter on the quest that was more reminiscent of the old classic arcades. I will be honest this was a good mix of modern technology and good old classic fun. Together you have a love child of retro and modern styles perfectly balanced and blended to one nice package!

The game is straightforward and to the point, grab your gun and start shooting anything that is labeled in red. Anything else is either a power up, a secret or something that you can use to your advantage to defeat enemies. The enemies are numerous and can easily swarm you if you're not careful, you need to think fast and make sure to keep your health as high as possible, you're going to need it.

One thing I appreciate most is the level of detail with the bosses. Each one offers a good enough challenge as well as enough immersion to make this feel like a great bombastic battle against titans as opposed to just another enemy. I also love how they are reminiscent of Tron's Master Control Program, where they are large and have that low polygon look, yet carry great power and can overwhelm you with sheer power.

I also appreciate the intricate details surrounding the Hub menu, where your character lives supposedly in a basement, filled with newspaper pieces detailing what is going on in this world. It gives me a bit of a Matrix feel. Plus you can also recognize which trophies you have and which you lack.

Definitely am having a blast with this, I highly appreciate the level of work you guys put into this and hope to see more in the future from you guys. I absolutely love this, both as a fan of sci Fi movies from the '80s as well as a gamer of the modern era. That and it reminds me of the episode Power Mad from the Fairly Odd Parents back in the day. Always wanted games like thisa and now I have it! Much appreciated for your talent and care with this game!

While not exactly Tron in real life ...hold on it is Tron in real life...

I am living the dream I had as a teenager in the 1980s. No not that one, the other one about that day in the far distant future when computer graphics will be 3d realtime and I am virtually in the game!

I purchased the game, because it was on a list of those supporting the provolver. Sad to say the integration is not very good. A game such as Space Pirate Trainer shows how it can be done for lasers etc. While ARK ADE just gives a constant buzz across the "kick".

Fun game, got it mainly for protube haptic support but currently broken implementation. Hopefully there is a fix.

It's a short game but a very fun game and hard I have watched YouTube videos but boss number 2 the caterpillar one no matter what I do I cannot hit the golden Target. Was over me I shoot the golden old it goes back up I can get one or two hits one or two bars off it's very long health bar that it starts moving and for me it's impossible to hit. I'm not an expert gamer but far from not knowing what I'm doing. UPDATE: it's there but I did not see it, now that I have the slow motion it's much better. But, when I get to the area where there's a giant vault door that opens nothing is attacking me but I have a red wall on each side of the vault door and I can't go forward or back I'm just stuck there I've shot everything there is to shoot I got one of the secrets on the vault door I don't know what to do I don't know if I'm missing something or if the game is not functioning because I simply am stuck in this little area it is a very fun game though.

This is the best thing I’ve ever played. This game is definitely worth five dollars. I’d even buy it for $10. It is very fun. It is easy to figure out. I don’t know if you can play multiplayer. This is definitely the best game I’ve ever played because it is, mind blowing, fun, fast paced, many different modes, great quality, and a lot of work has been put into this. I can tell. This game is unique among others. If I were you I would wait to buy this until a holiday sale. I bought this during a holiday so when it was 50% off.

People kept writing how this game was very much like Tron, and I'm a big Tron fan. I saw that the comfort level rating was intense, and my VR legs aren't that great, but I had to give it a try. I'm happy to say that the game has lots of accommodations for controls. There is a teleport snap, but I found it best to lower the locomotion speed down low. Then you can dial it up as you get more used to it. I didn't get dizzy at all, plus I was too active ducking,dodging, and shooting to even notice.

All said, on first impressions, this is a fun game with that cool retro grid n pixels look. The powerups are cool. The bosses are challenging, and there are lots of different options for gameplay.

After playing for a while, just couldn't help but feel that it was just another COD type game with the all too familiar weapons. Since we're in the cyber/electronic world, maybe more creative, futuristic weapons other than the ol' traditional handgun and machine gun? Like maybe something that spits out a cyber electric eel. 😁
