My Koi

My Koi

Very well done virtual fish pond. Excellently realistic graphics and fish movement/behaviour. Good ambient sounds.

Also, the developer is amazingly active and responsive to suggestions. I’ve already seen 2 updates within hours of the suggestion being posted on the forum!

I’ve tried writing a more comprehensive review with a couple of suggestions, but every time click ‘Post review’ the button disappears and nothing else happens. I hope this minimal review is ‘accepted’, and will take up the other points I wanted to make up the forum.

I’ve always wanted a koi pond, but I don’t have the space to put one since I have a small yard. My Koi piqued my interest for that very reason. This is a koi pond simulator, and a great one at that. If you’re expecting a riveting narrative, Michael Bay-esque explosions, and epic fights between good and evil, then My Koi is not the game you’re looking for. If you’re into a relaxing experience, then this is a great option.

Here’s the gist: you’re given three ponds and a limited number of koi to create and put into each pond. You’ll have the ability to feed your koi and watch them grow over time. This doesn’t mean there’s no challenge. One of your koi must hit a certain weight and length milestone in order to unlock more customization options for your koi. You’re also able to put more koi into each pond as you hit these milestones. It incentivizes you to care for your koi daily. You can at least feed the koi once a day, and they’ll be happy.

so you bought some chickens

getting roosters is tricky, but dev has introduced a button fo buy roosters

nav can be clunky but you get used to it.

sometimes the birds hide in your constructed objects.

but it is fun to watch your brood grow as you try to get the best chickens possible.

Some days the ladies are coguettish and the bachelors are limpid and the procreation takes a pause.

Some days the roosters are crowing and going and that’s when the feathers fly.

checkitout.

EDIT: I would now no longer recommend this game, I haven’t played it in a long time as it has sadly been abandoned by the developer, leaving promised improvements incomplete. It is a shame as I believe this game had real potential had the improvements been implemented and more content added.

I’m really enjoying this game so far, even though it is obviously still in the early stages of development. After several restarts I think I have finally mastered the basics and have figured out how to make my ranch reasonably profitable. I’m slowly but surely getting better equipment and working my way up to more exotic and profitable breeds. There are a few downsides, the controls seem a bit clunky as it can be hard to click exactly where you want to. It could also do with a more in depth tutorial but I’m sure this will all come in time as the dev seems very responsive to ideas on the forum. All in all a good game which I am having a lot of fun playing.

Perfect

Perfect

I had high hopes for this experience, since I loved Perfect Beach on GearVR. Perfect did not disappoint. It is the highest quality relaxing experience on the Vive, the only one that brings me a true state of chill. The little details really make it, such as the realistic splash when you throw a stone into the water, or the sparkles of ice crystal facets on the snowballs. The three environments are well chosen, and well worth the price.

A couple comments for the devs:

Vive convention is trigger selects and trackpad teleports. You mostly abide by this except on the main menu. Trigger, not trackpad should select.

Perfect might not be truly “perfect” in terms of the game itself, but the title definitely represents the ideal of surrounding yourself in a true utopia of an environment you enjoy.

I wouldn’t call Perfect a VR Game exactly, but more so of a VR Experience. There are some interactive items which are very enjoyable to toy around with (skipping stones on water, throwing snowballs, lighting a torch in the dark night and watching it’s glow reflect all around you) but for the most part, you’ll be sitting still and just observing more than anything. Even so, this is a great tool for relaxing and really taking the edge off.

Not sure the point of this other than collecting stuff- put in caudron- heat it up- then no instructions on what to do next.

Its just gather mix- gather-mix- Quite boring, never made it past 20 minutes- its that boring. Good idea- poor exectution. Needs more up front to make it even somewhat fun.

Keep my $4 though- I appreciate the effort!

Secrets of a Campfire

Secrets of a Campfire

Secrets of a Campfire is a peaceful atmospheric experience set in a camping environment that players can jump into to chill and relieve their stresses.

Immersive experience

  • Explore the stunning photo-realistic environment in an immersive day-night cycle.

  • Enjoy the sightseeing of nature on foot or in a rowing boat.

  • Relax with the acoustic soundtracks and physics based sound effects of the lake, campfire cracking, waterfalls and ambiance.

If you’re ready to talk about it

Light the campfire and write about your secret. Whatever it’s, just let it out.

If you’re not ready to share it yet, burn the letter in the campfire. However, there’re people on the other side exactly in your shoes so they’ll care about you no matter what. So, when you’re done, fold that paper, put it in a bottle and send it to the water.

It’s the little things

  • Read other players' letters and show compassion by lighting sky lanterns in their worlds

  • Kick back and stargaze anywhere in the camp.

Aquarium Simulator

Aquarium Simulator

To call this an “aquarium simulator” is a gross overstatement. If anything, a screensaver simulator, perhaps?

There is little (alright, close to nothing) to actually do and whatever you do has no effect at all. If you don’t “feed” your “fish” (which resemble more a poor cartoon approximation, even in cartoonish style), nothing happens. If you pack 500 fish in the tank, same as if there were 2, except you get more eggs, which you then have to click one by one to harvest (I’ve garnered around 400 in one sitting after two hours with the game closed), which gives you more money… with which you can buy, well nothing much really. Just more of the same fish approximation.

This game, this damn game. It broke me. I never ever thought I would find the perfect game, but here it is, I have found the diamond in the rough. For such an amazing, powerful, impactful, experience, it’s too cheap. In my opinion, this piece of art is way too cheap.

If I had known that Aquarium Simulator would have been this amazing, I would have demanded they raise the price for me.

My life has peaked, I have experienced many amazing things, nothing as powerful and divine as this creation.

I have no complaints, I have no problems, After such an experience, my life is complete. Thank you BJgamesIND, thank you for creating such a master piece, thank you for the graphics, thank you for the time. thank you.

FISHERY

FISHERY

This could be a very lovely game, I cant recommend it at this point, but I have high hopes this could be getting somewhere.

What I like:

The style is lovely! The fish and plants are stylized to a point to make it look artsy, but you still recognize every species, it is realy beautifully made.

The animations are very cute, the fish chase each other, nibble on plants and decorations, I love it. :)

I like that the fish are breeding and the babys are realy cute.

What I dont like:

I played with one tank for 63 ingame days. In that time I had 3 adult platys and a ton of babys.

I’ve been keeping fish for a long time and it has been my dream to find an, detailed and good fish keeping game. Over the years all the fish keeping games I found were either very old or abandoned. But fishery might finally be the game. It has many things already added so it’s a perfect early access game. It does lack a lot of stuff. But it is still good enough to provide you fun until new updates roll out. Fishery already provides the things you would want in an aquarium game. It already has 18 fish species that are for now mostly freshwater and it has 17 plant species that come in different sizes and variants. There are lots of decoration items that help you create the aquarium you always wanted. There are around 10 substrates. I think they can add more into substrates. Such as different substrates being beneficial for different situations. Or they can just add more substrates or even substrate mixing. One of my favorite features of fishery is the plumbing system. Not only it is unique but the idea of being able to hide all the filtration and heaters an all that stuff is amazing. And lastly something no other game has (At least from what I’ve played.) breeding. So far there is a single gamemode. Sandbox. But a career mode is coming. I would say if you so far like this game consider a few things: First it’s early access so there is a possibility you might not find the content you need. Second the game is slightly more detailed for some people. Third if you love saltwater more there aren’t many fish or plant variants yet.

Robo Vacuum Simulator

Robo Vacuum Simulator

Does this game suck? No it doesn’t, but the vacuum cleaner does, and it sucks well!

Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orvu20k3rXg

‘Robo Vacuum Simulator’ is a not too difficult simulator where you control a robo vacuum cleaner and have to suck up all the dirt that is on the ground.

Also don’t forget to watch out for dirt that is more hidden behind furniture or in hidden corners, so make sure you suck everything neatly.

You will also face some hostile obstacles such as carpets,

sucking a carpet completely requires extra time and energy, so you will also have to pay attention to your battery meter and return to the charging station in time to avoid losing your suction power by charging the battery.
