  • Interplanetary Update - 18 December 2020

    Planet-sized news everyone! Welcome to a whole new world – hoVRplanet. It´s a desert planet, so don´t expect much to be going on there..... though like all good planets it has spherical gravity! I know some of you will enjoy that ;) Also with the last update the hoVRpark got a big make-over: New vegetation, performance-optimized, beautiful autumn colors Better braking physics New Sounds More “Holograffities” Bugfixes Let me know how you like the changes and boarding on sand.

  • Knuckles Controller Bindings - 18 October 2020

    I finally got Knuckles controllers, so here is a quick update on the controller bindings. I hope they work for you. As a single developer i can not test the game on every VR hardware out there and would be very happy for your feedback. BTW I am still working on the game and a colorful update will be coming soon...

  • Optimization Update - 17 July 2020

    Hello everyone, sorry, that there was no update for such a long time, but I had a lot of other stuff to do in these strange times. Here is a minor update to improve overall performance and to fix some bugs. Thank you very much to everyone giving me feedback. I am still having lots of ideas for developing this game further. And hopefully I will find more time to do so again. There will be something coming... soon(ish)...

  • A Mountain Of New Things - 13 March 2020

    New Level “hoVRpeak” You wanted snow? You'll get a whole mountain of it. But it's still not a snowboard game! Adaptive Music The game finally has a soundtrack. And it's adaptive. The music changes between relaxed background music and action-loaded beat and guitars, depending on how relaxed or action-loaded you drive. Big thanks to Plush Rabbit Studios. Better Braking The carving or crosswise positioning of the board to the direction you go now has a greater braking effect and makes the riding behaviour even more similar to that of a snowboard. More challenges Currently we are at 62, and there are also infinite ways you can find your own. Challenge Mode By popular demand, some challenges are a little easier by showing better where you have to go. Others are not. Looping mode For the particularly daring among you I have adapted the (optional) looping mode. Please give feedback on how you…

  • Not On Vacation - 14 February 2020

  • Physics Bugfix / Floating Rocks - 1 November 2019

    Hi everyone, I found a physics mistake I made in an update, which for the last couple of days made the controls stutter a little. It is fixed now and the carving should be smoother now. Sorry, if you had a bad experience. Speaking of physics... these blue rocks don´t obey gravity anymore. I think it´s because they are filled with energy orbs. Have fun! :-)

  • Happy BackToTheFutureDay - 21 October 2019

    . How do you like the colors?

  • Enviroment Update - 29 September 2019

    Hi everyone, I tried to make the enviroment a little prettier and exchanged the trees. Also i seeded some grass and flowers. Just a few yet. But perhaps they will spread. So please don´t hoVR on them :-) For the latest control options I added buttons and descriptions: Smooth Turning Invert Thrust Looping mode (now even faster) And I fixed some bugs. Thank you very much for all your nice and helpfull feedback. You keep me motivated. Tomy
