i like it
I think its fun but i feel like it should be longer
I can't play within my hands go away
Every time I get to the part where they pick you up from the boat, my hands always glitch and I can't move them. And then they're stuck in one spot and I can't see what I'm doing, and they're yelling at me to do something when I can't do it because of my stupid hands worst game. I've ever played in my entire life. I hate this so much. Don't waste your data by downloading it. Go get something else, download something else. That's actually good.

wow
Well worth the experience.
You can't complain for free. It's a strong experience with some cool ideas. The Performance was a bit choppy in places though and since I was trying to record it at the time it actually killed the recording entirely. I forgive bad performance though when recording in stereoscopic 3D. But otherwise... well worth checking out. I'm just curious who's getting paid to make this?
Don't listen to the other comments
The reason this game is so short is because it's a showcase, I think the people getting this game forgot how the early VR game days used to be, like, super hot, it's a showcase of a mechanic that ties time to your velocity, and the game is just as short as this is. That was until so many people started buying it they were able to actually afford to build it up
Good game
Its good if i can play like sail if you make it like sail goin to be the best sail game but is just history time lose time hope can make loke sail game!
i buy it if come playable
