Blobkin Blaster
I’m a long time VR player spanning back to the Oculus DK2 and have played a lot of games over the years. This is a well polished wave shooter. I actually bought this for the kids (8 and 5) and they love it. Bit tired of zombies or modern day combat shooters so I loved the art direction taken here you can definitely tell a lot of passion went into making it. I’d really love to see a Quest version one day and also some kind of multi player coop.
Absolutely Worth a try!

This is a 180 degree stand still (or seated) wave shooter with some Tower Defense elements. There are currently 5 levels, plus a tutorial and and endless wave level. Finishing the main campaign took me about 45 minutes.
I did like the colorful art-style and the lovely underwater worlds with a variety of sea creatures. It would be perfect for kids, if the gameplay were fine-tuned for them and the game had more polish. As is though, I can’t really recommend this game to anyone. The wave shooter element is too basic and the TD elements lacks any depth. It feels like you’re just randomly shooting fish in a barrel versus using any real strategy.

Feeding Frenzy 2 Deluxe
Feeding Frenzy 2 Deluxe by PopCap Games is a very simple concept that becomes suprisingly challenging as the game wears on. The basic premise is you begin as a small fish and must eat like sized or smaller fish until you grow big enough to eat the next largest fish. The games graphics are bright and cheerful, the music appropriate and not aggravating, and the scoring screens even offer a little bit of fun information about fish. While this game would be perfect for kids, the gameplay is brisk enough to be enjoyed by adults as well. My only minor concerns with the game are the lack of Steam Overlay support, and a no Vysync option, which for high end systems may lead to some minor graphic tearing. Altogether though, the game is fun and inexpensive and well worth your gaming dollar.

political, philosophical, personal. feeding frenzy 2: shipwreck showdown brings with it all the fun of the first game while crafting a deeply profound message on what it means to survive.
the first feeding frenzy was all about the dog-eat-dog - or fish-eat-fish - world of the deep blues. as a classic underdog tale, the player upgrades from andy the angelfish up to orville the orca through the endless process of munching. as a political statement, though? an incredibly pessimistic one, which discusses the power-seeking nature of man (fish) kind, and the all-encompassing corruption that greed brings, while briefly touching upon moments of euphoria, forgiveness, and environmentalism.

Aquarius
I followed to development of Aquarius for a long time already and I can say that this game is amazing. I played it last time when it was open for playing in Alpha or something like that where you couldn’t even shoot enemies and the game has gone a long way from there. It’s a good game for when you have nothing to play or just don’t know what to play and I would recommend it, it also has amazing music.

Bubble Breaking
Bubble Breaking is an action arcade game. Players can use mouse or gamepad to pop bubbles. The bubbles come in different sizes (depths) and they rise at different speeds. When bubbles are popped points are scored. The smaller, faster bubbles score more points than the bigger, slower bubbles. There is also an accuracy multiplier. Each successive popped bubble increases the multiplier to a max of 10x the base point value. If the player misses a bubble, whether by mouse or keyboard, the multiplier is resets back to 1x. Beware of the ‘stink’ bubbles! If you accidently pop one of them your score will be dragged down with the fishes.

This is great, really.
I put on my headset being skeptical and taking notes in my mind. I thought from the videos it looked like just a bunch of assets thrown together.
But it was very peaceful and i found it really meditative. All the small details happening around were great, I was never bored, and a beautiful strangely coherent world. I felt very connected.
This is now my go to app for meditation and recommend for such purposes.

Small and simple co-op but very fun
– Real player with 1.4 hrs in game
Small co-op station game.
1 submarine, 2 players, 4 stations (steering, weapons, scanner, smelter), 1 level. essential, this feels like a minimalist version of Catastronauts that is also less exciting. You navigate the deep looking for keycards and scrap metal while fending off laser sharks, and when you enter the enemy base, it turns out they’re in another castle, and the game ends. Mind you, the concept isn’t that bad, and if the devs had put some effort into making a campaign and different enemies, it could be a lot better; but as it is, If you want to do couch co-op, I recommed springing for a better game that has more variety.

Underwater
Terrible

For those who read negative reviews about the controls - it’s partially true but not entirely. You just need some time to learn the way controls work. I couldn’t do it with my xbox360 controller, it just didn’t work with the precision a keyboard did. Only keyboard, only hardcore.
The gameplay is simple - you move forward by completing levels. It becomes more difficult with each new level but nothing unbearable. It might feel frustrating because of the number of attempts but the more you try, the closer you are too the solution. Just be patient!

Underwater Life
Looks like I get to write the first review for this “game”. Underwater Life is a lazy 2D retro style arcade game where you control a small fish in a 2D aquarium and must avoid bigger fish. Eat algae to increase your level so you can eat smaller fish as well. That’s all there is to it.
This is a basic template flip made with the awful GameMaker Studio 2, resulting in a very mediocre experience. Resolution and controls are locked, gameplay is janky, and the game art is mediocre.
These kind of video game construction kits aren’t intended to make commercially viable games, they’re just for sharing with friends and teaching some elements of game making. The quality of this shovelware is far beneath anything that should be published on Steam. The $10 USD price tag for “game” stamped out with a construction kit is just a joke.

Antibody
You are the cure.
Sanguon, an otherwordly and newly discovered planet, has found itself the hotbed for a highly infectious alien lifeform. After intercepting a distress call from the surface research colony, you conclude the infection rate will outrun your efforts to contact your fellow humans. It is up to your piloting skills and the peculiar cleansing capabilities of your allied Chonklers to save Sanguon - and indeed the universe - from Viroid assimilation.
Multitask to victory.
Efficiently and continuously reposition your Chonkler companions to impede the rising infection. But stay alert, as your friendly critters are completely defenseless and will need your maneuverability and firepower to keep them safe as increasingly dangerous waves of enemies amass to attack.
Their loss is your gain.
Viroid corruption siphoned by the Chonklers can be converted into power-ups by your ship. Radar improvements? Piercing shot? Do you save up for big upgrades, or do you enjoy a flurry of smaller ones? The choice is yours.
A blast from the past, in the present.
A love letter to shoot ‘em up classics like Gradius, R-Type and Defender. Undeniably gameplay driven and thoroughly indulging in 80’s sci-fi pulp, Antibody is sure to excite arcade enthusiasts.
Fish. Love. Danger.
A cute arcade game about a fish in love.
There are a lot of interesting things in this little game:
-
a kind story about love and courage
-
hand-drawn graphics
-
nice animation
-
hard puzzles
-
simple mouse control
Good luck!
