VR is no stranger to flatscreen conversions, and Flat2VR Studios quickly made a name for itself doing exactly that. Roboquest VR is the latest example, taking RyseUp Studios’ 2023 roguelite FPS and thoroughly overhauling it. You control a Guardian robot taking down waves of hostile enemy machines, blazing a path for your human companion Max towards Haven 8 - an oasis in the desert that makes up most of this post-apocalyptic Earth.
What is it?: An FPS roguelite trek towards humanity’s lost haven where you play as a Guardian robot. Platforms: Quest (Coming Soon), Steam, PS VR2 (Reviewed on PC VR) Release Date: Out Now Developer: Flat2VR Studios, RyseUp Studios Publisher: Flat2VR Studios Price: $29.99
If only the game hadn’t been reworked several times during development, getting progressively worse with each update, and ending up as a generic feeling color puke shooter with not even a single boss that isn’t simply annoying to encounter.
It was so fucking good–was.
