I personally want more physics simulations. I always loved 2D falling sand games where everything reacted with each other and after a long time not having games with those mechanics i found noita and i can't stop playing it. As much for the game loop then for the game's falling sand engine.

There's just not really anything else quite like Noita, is there. What a great game.

I'm 200 hours in with no wins! It's the first game that's really grabbed me since I transitioned away from flatscreen gaming to VR a few years back.

Same. I'm always playing a variety of VR games and noita. But if i could play noita in VR i definitely would XD
I found this guy https://youtube.com/@grantkot?si=lRNFq8OeSnPm8wOO on youtube that has a great looking engine that has already partly implemented VR he says and i can't wait to see where this goes!

Looks awesome, I'll keep an eye on that! If you haven't heard of Cabbibo you should definitely check out his work. This one fits in this thread nicely: Blaarp

[–] Dindonmasker@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

Blaarp looks really cool! It makes me think of chroma lab i'm a big fan of these games!

[–] Dindonmasker@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm back to say i just played Blarp for like 2 hours and it was really fun! Once i got the flow of things i really enjoyed it. My final score was 47.

Glad you enjoyed it! You must have very good coordination I think my high score is under 30!
