Played on a i7-8700, 16GB RAM, GTX1070Ti with a Valve Index. Observations are as follows:
- Overall framerate was smooth, with no noticeable frameskips or jitter.
- The cockpit has a great 3D feel to it, and makes you feel immersed being inside the ship. The displays, particularly with text on them, need to be a little bigger, as I basically had my eyeball right on the display to clearly read them (I did like the Unobtanium, and Adamantium fuel reference).
- For the Asteroid field, I flew so close to some asteroids that they should have been inside the cockpit.
- It was nice to flick some switches, but I would have preferred to have bigger text to read what I should be flicking than 'follow the flashing lights'. Picking up and replacing the spare 'warp cell' (?) worked great with the Valve Controllers.
- The hyperspace 'tunnel' was incredible and had a more immersive feeling than anything I've played so far.
- The X-Wing and Tie-Fighter felt like a giant tease, as they were just 3-D models to pick up and look at. What did the number above the X-Wing mean?
- Kudos for having a coffeemaker that makes coffee balls in the Cockpit.
- At the end of the level, I had no ability to fly the ship at all, which left me with a incredibly disappointed feeling as my entire experience was basically a mini-roller coaster ride in space.
Thanks for the review. This was the first-ever VR game I made. Let me address some things
- First of all, I'm glad it works with the valve index. The game was only supposed to work with the oculus controls so the fact that it works well is amazing.
- As far as the ship controls I feel you. I need to add that asap but I was having trouble programming it. But I will try to add them as soon as possible.
- The number above the X-Wing was the health. On the Tie-Fighter, you can shoot lasers using the triggers on your controller. You can shoot the X-Wing and destroy it.
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to write this review.

My pleasure. I'll look forward to future improvements. Congratulations on your first game; that is something to be proud of.
