I AM LOVING THIS GAME! 10/10

This game will have you so locked in you’ll lose track of time and play for hours before realizing, if you’re a fan of doom style games with rogue like aspects this game is for you! I was born in the 90’s and grew up with games like this, but to play it in vr is a new level of fun! The upgrade system is awesome and the weapons/power ups are great, it has a very diverse selection of demons to rip through and many levels to conquer! I would highly recommend this game! Not only for the game itself but the devs team is amazing as well, always listens to feedback and strongly cares for the community!

Wow, thank you so much for this incredible review! 🙌
It really means a lot to hear that Plasmaborne hits that classic Doom-style sweet spot for you, especially as someone who grew up with those games. Bringing that energy into VR has been our dream, and feedback like this makes all the hard work worth it.

We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the upgrade system, enemies, and overall vibe, and we’ll keep listening to the community as we grow. ⚡💀

See you in the arena, Soldier! 👊

Definitely a hidden gem

I was gifted the game by being randomly chosen in a contest on the r/oculus quest subreddit. So, full disclosure, I got this game for free. Three hours later, I was gifting a copy for a friend, then went right back to playing.

This game is highly addictive. Think Doom+Crashlands+Serious Sam. It’s a blast!

There are a LOT of wave based shooters on quest , and a few even try to capture the FEEL of DOOM or QUAKE, but this game is the clear winner. If you love hectic wave shooters with an almost comic-booky hellscape vibe, this is the only choice. You feel like a complete juggernaut as you blow through the legions of hellspawn!

Pros
+Tons of great enemy variation. I’m always pumped to see what they throw at you next.
+Great music and voice
+love the power up system after each round. Some of the upgrade bonuses are amazing!
+love the randomization of levels
+ the game difficulty is perfect. If it was any harder, I would’ve put it down much earlier. As is, the “one more game” feel is VERY strong here.

Cons
- Turning on smooth turn, even at max is still way too slow
- I wish reload was active/quick reload. Waiting definitely breaks the rhythm. Infinite ammo power up’s definitely helped, but it’s luck of the draw when you get them.
- Unless I’m missing something, where’s the equivalent of a pulse rifle or assault rifle here? I really missed having that gun style! Plasma gun is fine, but a plasma rifle would be GREAT. Currently rocking the shredder/pistol combo.

Thank you very much for your detailed feedback!

Most important. More weapons are added. Add Assault rifle like one is also included in these plans!

We can definitely increase max smooth turn speed. Will add a feature to backlog right away :)

There is indeed a button for active reloading (see controls in the hub). If you think more in terms of reloading instantly with a hand gesture/movement, we can experiment with that.

Doom inspired rougelike!!

If you're a fan of old school shooters like DOOM and you always wished you could be in the game, then now you can with Plasmaborne! The team at Cybersnake have been working hard to bring that vision of a fast paced, brutal shooter to VR, along with a great rougelike progression system.

They actively listen to feedback and throughout the early access have added requested features to the game, like the ever important options for smooth turning (for VR gamers like me!).

Don't just take my word for it, why not head over to my YouTube channel and check out my first impressions video when I tried it out a while ago!

We’ll definitely check out your video. Thanks for sharing your first impressions and for helping spread the word. More updates are coming, and we can’t wait for you to dive back in. ⚡💀

Fun, Fast, Action Packed Dungeon Crawler

You start in a cell with a dead body and basic control instructions near by. Then you can move around the hub which is like your bat cave. Which contains various information about the place and upgrade stations and a map showing your latest progress or best play. You can see 3 zones with an indicator of a boss battle at the end of each zone. Nice.

To start the game, you go through the yellow circle portal, and find yourself in the first arena. Shoot the spider thing in the sky, and the mobs start spawning in. Weapon in each hand (starting with 2 pistols) you blast your way through until the arena is cleared. Then you get to pick from 3 random power ups to carry through with you for the rest of this run. Jump through the portal to the next arena, with new monsters appearing as you go, and more appearing each time.

You get drone power ups and some treasure hunting as well as you play through, boosting your damage, giving you unlimited ammo, etc.

Takes a few rounds to earn good bounty for decent upgrades. And upgrades take you further each time.

Boss fights are very cool, mega big bosses, with challenging mobs and great music backing up your experience.

I am looking forward to the 3rd zone being released and can already find myself playing this to upgrade as much as possible, from passive skills, spells, weapons and their own upgrades.

This game is simple to understand, easy enough to master, fast paced and excitingly entertaining for a shooter dungeon crawler. Quite addictive!

Very good summary of the game loop! Glad you like the boss fights. I plan more fights in that direction!

Awesome

I received this game in a key giveaway competition from a Facebook VR group, Meta Quest Promotions.
I thought enjoyed the game and plan to practice more when I get a chance. I loved every second though and can recommend this for anyone that loves shooters.

Awesome

A little bummed there’s only 1 boss right now, but can’t wait for the rest to be added. This one really surprised me… one of the best rogues I’ve played in VR, and I’ve played a million of em it seems. Keep up the great work devs!
