- Ven VR Adventure - (Not) Monthly Venlog #6 - 10 April 2021
Hi! We are back with our devlogs after a long break. At that time we have made a lot of progress, released our game on Oculus, Vive, Steam and right now we are working on Quest release! In this Venlog we want to show you some first impressions we saw and how we adapted to this. Power Attack When our first level "Village" was easily completed by many players, there were some users that had problems with poison shrooms: Without this special move player died more times from them than from any other reason. That's why we have implemented additional tooltips at the beginning to remind, that there is such a move in game. After this patch users had less problems with our shrooms. That was one of many changes that normal user wouldn't see, but has a good effect and encourage them to go further. Checkpoints After release we saw a pattern, that players died at specific places or they just felt di…
- Camera Survey - 23 March 2021
Dear Players, while we are fully working on Oculus Quest, we are also thinking about improving our camera system in the game. We are fully aware some players didn't like our camera for various reasons, like they can't control it or they can't go back. That was one of the reasons that they gave lower rates or just bounce from our game. Of course we want to improve our game so as many players as possible can have pleasant gameplay. We have created a survey for you, where we ask you a few questions (5 minutes). We encourage all players who played this game and even didn't have any problems, so we can have precise results and deliver the best solution. Survey: Click here Thanks in advance and have a nice day!

- Ven VR Adventure - PATCH 1.2 coming with the Steam version! - 26 January 2021
Hello Community! Ven VR Adventure launches on Steam this week! We have the list of changes coming with the new patch. The update 1.2 will be already implemented in the Steam version on the release day, January 28th, so you will be playing an improved game at the start! Here is what we’ve been cooking for you the last couple of weeks: Places, where players had difficulty during gameplay because Ven was too far from them, were redesigned in every location in the game. It brings a lot of improvement to the gameplay but the base experience stays the same :) Added difficulty levels to the game - the player can change them during profile creation as well as during gameplay. Difficulty levels do not affect level design but determine: number of checkpoints, lives for Ven at the start as well as runes and crates demanded to gain another life. Snap Turn Option - default on (improves the mechanics…

- Ven VR Adventure - Info about Steam release - 18 December 2020
Hello VR fans! We would like to clarify the situation with the Steam version of Ven VR Adventure. As you might probably know, our game was released on December 17 on Oculus Store. A lot of you were asking about the Steam version and here is the official info. The Steam version of Ven VR Adventure is almost ready. However, we are a small independent studio and we can work on releasing each version one by one as we mentioned some time ago. Even if the game is ready in terms of the content, there are various technical differences when submitting the build for each platform. It will take us some more time to have the version ready for Steam release. Ven VR Adventure will release on Steam in 2021 but you can expect it sooner rather than later - we will be back with the official date soon. Yours, Monologic Games

- Ven VR Adventure - Monthly Venlog #5 - 7 July 2020
Hello, Ven community! June was a very important month for us for various reasons. Let’s take a look at what was happening. 😉 In June we were ready to finally show you some longer gameplay videos from the current build of our game. We’ve made huge progress, mainly in building levels and improving their visual quality in comparison to our first teaser. Unfortunately, we needed to push the release date as we need a few more months to finish the game and give you the best quality that we are capable of delivering. Take a look at the list of published materials in case you missed something: Gameplay #1 (Jungle level) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dljvv4xt0Pc Gameplay #2 (Jungle level) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZsjAfQm3B4 Gameplay #2 (Village level) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUn2Wi7YLO0 Gameplay #4 (Jungle level) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGOEUP5Tv38 Enemy Robot Animatio…

Hello, We have an important message about Ven VR Adventure for you today. First of all, we would like to say a huge THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for supporting our game. We love bringing you new content every week and we are excited about all of your reactions. We would like to give you the high-quality VR platformer and it takes a lot of time to do it right. That is why we want to inform you that Ven VR Adventure won’t be released in Q2 2020 and we want to apologize for that delay.

Hello, Ven community! We are happy to give you a new Monthly Venlog. Let’s wrap up what was happening in May. During the last couple of weeks, we were focused on reaching a very important milestone in the development of our game. We cannot wait to tell and show you more about the story and the world of Ven VR Adventure but we still need some time to prepare proper content. If you missed our social media activity in May, here is a quick recap of what we were showing: LITTLE VEN 3D MODEL - actually it is not Ven (the main character of the game) but a model of the little one from Runnies civilisation and those cute creatures play an important part in our story JUNGLE LIGHTING - here you can see many variations of lighting for the jungle level that we're working on a lot recently SHROOM AND HIS ANIMATIONS - what can you see here is the set of the various animations for one of the enemies in…

Despite many restrictions related to a global pandemic, Monologic Games is doing very well and our work goes fantastic. Our goal is to finish all systems of Ven VR Adventure and then we will start polishing our game. As to April, we were showing some videos about animations. Let’s look at it once again! JELLY SLIME - that green guy gave us a lot of fun on our team chat once it was done for the first time; the secret of his awesomeness is procedurally animated slime! ROBOT ENEMY ATTACKING ANIMATIONS - here you can take a look at one of many robots that Ven will face on his journey; our animators put tons of work to make it look cool and we hope that you guys like it That is not all - we will launch our first community contest which is all about ro…

- Monthly Venlog #2 - March - 1 April 2020
Today we are giving you another Monthly Venlog which is a summary of the last month of our work on Ven VR Adventure. March happened to be quite different than we were all expecting just a few weeks ago due to a global pandemic. For us, in Monologic Games all things stayed stable and the development of Ven VR Adventure goes smooth. During the last couple of weeks we continued to expand the community of Ven and also we managed to publish some goodies. PARTICLE EFFECTS - the first video on March presented some particle effects; in that case we wanted to show it while performing some more complex moves such as combos and special attack with Ven’s dual blades SONIC VEN - sometimes our designers want to play a little bit with the settings in the game editor and that’s the result ^^ SHORT GAMEPLAY - here you can watch a 40 second run through one of our levels where you can see some traversal a…
- Monthly Venlog #1 - February - 29 February 2020
Today we are giving you the first Monthly Venlog which is a summary of the last month of our work on Ven VR Adventure. It is just the beginning of the adventure with Ven and we already received such an amazing response from you guys. We would like to say a huge THANK YOU for all of your kind comments, positive reception and adding our game to wishlists! We are very grateful and highly motivated for the upcoming months to deliver a high-quality VR platformer for you! As a reminder, the development of Ven VR Adventure began in March 2019.
