Superfly VR has recently allowed me to take part in some testing for their new game, and to tell you the truth it has blown me away so far.


I was able to easily get it working on the Quest via the usual Virtual Desktop solution, and apart from a few issues trying to click on menus the game itself ran well and was very responsive and fun.



The environment (city) is absolutely immense with a huge draw distance, allowing for an incredible experience no matter which power you are using. I did notice after 10 minutes or so the amount of ice and the number of cars seem to cause a memory slowdown of some kind, and the game needed resetting.


Now, for the powers:



Fire Thrusters - Absolutely amazing, gives you an incredible feeling of speed and power, easy to use and maneuverability at the maximum.


Cobweb Shooters - Really cool, tugging on them will send you towards the buildings and you really feel the intense speed. Harder to use though, and I faceplanted a lot. Thats definitely user error though.



Ice Trail - This absolutely blew my mind. Its not as fast as the other ones, but its incredibly cool and gives even greater maneuverability than the fire thrusters.


Wings - Fly like a bird!! It was a bit hard to wrap my head around to start, but was very immersive. Especially being able to glide downwards and view the city from a calmer perspective.


Giant Arms - These crazy giant arms were really hard to use, but seem to have unlimited potential, from using them as gorilla style bounding, launching off buildings, climbing vertical heights and punching buses in the face.


Lightning Pulse - Very stylish, they hold you in place while you charge and then when you punch and release in a direction you fly in that direction. Very easy to use, and makes for a stable platform when hovering. However, didnt have the same level of excitement as the others.


Also it should be noted that you can combine them to have say, Ice Trail in one hand and a cobweb shooter in the other! I will have to explore these combinations in more detail later.
