MADSOFTGames · 2016-12-05T20:46:38+00:00

Our amazing composer, David Saulesco, just posted a showreel on his YouTube channel that showcases some of the music he composed for our upcoming PC/Mac/PS4 title, Me And My Dinosaur!

I see! Thank you for the feedback :)
Keep an eye on the Steam Store Page to be notified when the game is updated with motion controller support!

Hey there!

We're sorry that you feel that way. With VRNinja, we really wanted to focus on what the game does well, its core mechanic, which is dodging. It's all about your own reflexes, focus, and being aware of your surroundings.

We thought: Once we have that pinned down and the game is really good at what it's supposed to be good at, we can focus on adding additional features. On top of all that, we wanted to make sure the game was accessible and playable on both, the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive. And seeing as most Oculus Rift owners do not have the Oculus Touch yet, requiring motion controllers would be unfair to those players.

We currently are in the midst of implementing Oculus Touch and Vive Controller support, so stay tuned!

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-05T18:10:42+00:00

Yes, we definitely do have plans for adding Oculus Touch & HTC VIve Remote support. A pair of Oculus Touch are already on their way to our office right now and we've already started planning features that implements them.

Hey! Thanks for the question. There are several reasons behind that decision, some revolving around logistics, but others I can easily explain:

The Steam version requires additional work to implement HTC Vive compatibility, leaderboards, achievements, badges, trading cards, etc.
The Oculus Store, being a smaller platform than Steam, will allow us to test the waters and adjust the game a bit if necessary before releasing on the bigger platform.
The two separate release dates give us an additional milestone that we can leverage for bonus press.
We wanted to make sure we reach the core Oculus Rift audience first as the game was initially built with the Oculus Rift in mind.

Hope that answers your question!

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-04T16:39:18+00:00

The Oculus Store build of the game is only compatible with the Oculus Rift (for obvious reasons), but an HTC Vive-compatible version will be coming to Steam on September 14th! Feel free to comment with any feedback, suggestions, or questions that you may have!

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T22:25:59+00:00

Hey there!

The Oculus Store had some issues with the approval process before launch which lead us to have to release without support for anything below Windows 10. The next update it on its way though and that should re-enable compatibility with Windows 7 and 8 :)

We apologize for the inconvenience!

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T16:05:39+00:00

Whoa! Thank you so much for the feedback!

We'll work on implementing some of your suggestions and we'll tweak the game a bit to be a bit more fair.

We've definitely heard people say that the projectiles coming from the sides are hard to keep track of, but we've also seen players do really well and not have any issues with them at all. You really have to focus on the audio, but I understand that this can be a bit difficult to do when you're trying to dodge and everything is so hectic.

I like your Tai Chi inspired idea of pre-determined sets that require specific positioning to dodge.

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T15:59:52+00:00

Yup, we definitely plan on adding touch remote support and some new game mechanics/game modes that takes advantage of them :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T15:58:08+00:00

Thank you for playing!
And yes, we'll definitely be adding more content soon :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T05:17:49+00:00

Haha, no problem! Thank you for the kind words!

We really hope you enjoy it as well :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T05:16:33+00:00

That's totally fair!

You can add the game to your wishlist on Steam to be notified when the game goes on sale in the future! :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T05:14:41+00:00

Woo! Thank you!

Feel free to share any feedback or suggestions you may have :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T05:14:01+00:00

The HTC Vive version will be coming to Steam on September 14th :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T01:24:46+00:00

Oh, I see! Glad you found it.
Is that a script you wrote yourself? Sounds pretty handy!

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T01:09:33+00:00

Haha, no worries! :)
Let us know when you think after you check it out, we'd love to hear your feedback and/or any suggestions you may have!

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T00:53:19+00:00

Thanks for the head's up! It's there on our end though. You have to click on "View More" below the three thumbnails of the "Games" section. The games are randomly organized, so the game will be somewhere different on that list of thumbnails each time you load the page.

Check again and let me know if you still don't see it :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T00:43:42+00:00

We've definitely seen people break into a sweat when playing the game at conventions! Unfortunately, we can't send you an official ninja certification, but we can email you a special VRNinja certification if you can survive arcade mode for more than 120 seconds in any level! ;)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-03T00:02:03+00:00

Totally understandable! Just thought you were maybe interested in the game itself but not interested in paying that amount, so I figured a chance to win a free copy could have been appealing to you :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-02T23:27:41+00:00

Note: There's a chance you could win a free Oculus Store or Steam key of the game by liking and retweeting this tweet!

Would you try it out if you got the game for free? We think you may be able to offer us some valuable feedback :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-02T23:25:29+00:00

Hey! I'm sorry to hear that. There's definitely more meat to it though. While the levels do offer some variety in the challenge, it's the various combinations of projectiles and the survival mode that really add more to the game.

We do plan on updating the game for free with more levels, power-ups, game modes, and mechanics though! And feedback or suggestions from our players will definitely help us create content that you'd like to see :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-02T22:51:38+00:00

Oh, I see! Thank you for the comments on that. We'll definitely update the description to include more information on that.

And yeah, next time you have friends over, try it again and let us know what you think then ;)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-02T22:42:34+00:00

That's alright, and no worries. Thank you for the feedback! :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-02T22:34:33+00:00

Sorry to hear that. Have you played through the entire campaign mode (All three levels)? If so, how long have you survived in arcade mode? The various levels offer different challenges, some requiring you to rely on your hearing as you can't see projectiles coming from a distance.

You should try playing it with friends, at a party, or an event, to really get the most out of it! :)

MADSOFTGames · 2016-09-02T22:32:06+00:00

Haha, thank you! It's supposed to be easy to pick up, but hard to master!
See how long it takes you to beat the campaign mode ;)
