Star Shelter: VR survival gameplay in zero-gravity space environments
30Gameplay from Star Shelter, a VR space survival game where you navigate in zero gravity to try and scavenge supplies for survival.
Star Shelter is a $14.99 VR space game that supports the HTC Vive and the Oculus Rift with Touch. Star Shelter uses zero-G locomotion similar to the Oculus game Lone Echo, you move around by pushing off or hanging onto walls and solid objects, and you also have wrist-mounted thrusters for traveling longer distances in space. The point of Star Shelter is to try and survive by salvaging materials from the various wrecks around you, and upgrading your spaceship to eventually fly away and win.
Full game description of Star Shelter from Steam:
"Star shelter
Star shelter is one of the first VR games with classic survival mechanics. You're stranded in a mysterious graveyard of abandoned ships, the only way out is to repair a broken spaceship.
You have to scavenge for materials and plants to repair and arm your spaceship.
Keep your oxygen, power, and hunger in the green. Grow plants, build solar panels and other objects to generate what you need.
Climb around the zero gravity but don't rely on your thrusters to much, they are fueled by the same oxygen you breathe.
Scavenge the wreckages of spaceships and be wary of hazards.
Current Features:
-Randomly generated environments and spaceships.
-Use the crafting to arm and improve your spaceship.
-Grow plants in your spaceship to generate oxygen and fruit.
-Voiced AI to guide you and keep you aware of hazards.
-Destructible/Repairable base, maintaining your spaceship is as important as eating.
-Innovative UI, interactive holograms to navigate menus/hack, "AR" labels on objects.
-Shoot down drones and turrets that stand in your way.
-Classic survival mechanics - Hunger, oxygen, power, sleep.
