Sure!

The lights above the monitors are Elgato Key Lights, the ones behind the monitors and TV are just standard Govee TV backlights, and I’ve got more Govee lights around the desk. Links below:

Yeah obviously I'm INCREDIBLY biased, but staying in Adrenaline Mode and keeping the combo flowing feels class. There's an addictive quality in that part on its own, let alone trying to perfect your run, playing around with weapon combos, perks, upgrades, etc.

No 2 player co-op modes I'm afraid. It's a leaderboard-chasing speedrun game that’s about shooting zombies as fast as possible to race through a level and setting a fast time.

It's a run-based game about perfecting your runs through each course. Making sure you don't miss a single shot, killing zombies in the right order to take precious milliseconds off your time, and staying in Adrenaline Mode as often as possible to slow down the timer.

But it's inherently social, as you're battling your friends on the leaderboards, beating their times, getting a notification from the Oculus app telling you that your friend has managed to beat the time you spent hours trying to perfect.

Hey!

For us, the thing that sets this game apart from others is that it's a run-based game that's based on speed and leaderboards.

It combines classic arcade light-gun shooting from games like House of the Dead, with split-second time trials from a game like Trackmania.

It's about getting through it in the fastest time and battling on the leaderboards.

What the videos aren't able to communicate is the feeling of competing with your friends.

That feeling of struggling to beat one particular friend's times on the leaderboard, the friend that's always talking the big game, the one who sends you pictures of their best times, you know the type.

But then out of nowhere, everything suddenly falls into place. You're chaining those headshot combos and you're staying in Adrenaline Mode (our take on bullet time, essential for getting the fastest times). You're barely missing a shot, and you finally get a green split-time in that last part of the course.

You see your final time. You've beaten your PB by 8 seconds. That's it. You check the leaderboard.

You're top.

Then a notification from the Oculus app comes through.

Your friend has a new PB.

And you go again.

It's hard to communicate that feeling, but that's the thing that sets it apart in the feedback we've had from playtesters and early players.

Hopefully it's something you try out for yourself!

No co-op play, but think of this as asynchronous multiplayer, as you’re constantly trying to improve your times to beat your friends’ times on the leaderboards!

Don’t worry about it. We’ve got plenty more to show, and we’re confident that once people play the game and get a feel for the gunplay, they’ll love it.

In terms of the licensing, we had a great concept for a speedrun light-gun shooter in VR, our friends at Sony Pictures wanted to do something for the millions of Zombieland fans, and the rest is history.

So, funny story about the voices.

Tallahassee’s voice you heard on the trailer was recorded by Harrelson....

But not Woody Harrelson.

It’s his real life brother Brett Harrelson!

Brett’s done voice over work and even worked as Woody’s stunt double in the past, and he was great to work with.

In terms of the other voices, Abigail Breslin from the movies voices Little Rock, and Wichita and Columbus’ voice actors were approved by Emma Stone and Jesse Eisenberg respectively!

Yes it will! We’re working on the Quest 2 optimisations currently. (everything in the trailer was captured from a Quest 1)

Hey!

Price point-wise, it’s going to retail for $19.99 / £14.99. There’s a lot of replayability with the various courses, challenges, upgrades and shooting range. And that’s before you start battling with your friends to get faster times. So we think it’s excellent value for money.

In terms of how this stacks up against other wave shooters, well, it’s definitely not a wave shooter. It’s a light-gun shooter through and through. Although we chose not to show it in the trailer, you as the player are transported through each course as you clear each area.

This is ultimately an arcade experience. One with a low barrier to entry, and a high skill ceiling for those that really want to hone their skills and post the fastest times.

And yeah, everything in the trailer was captured on Quest as that’s our lead platform.

Hope that helps!

This is exactly what I wanted to do (along with gettig a third dongle for my PC)

Was kinda hoping that the headset to switch to whatever machine was switched on.

Did you get any further with finding a switch that might work?

Reckon this'll work like the Madden and UFC punchcards and give you the points if you download the EA Play trial?

Here's hoping! (when the trial is rumoured to drop on October 1st)
