Latest Steam announcements

• 30th June 2018 - User Friendliness - 30 June 2018

  We finally were able to make some minor changes to the game that will especially be helpful for new players to get started with it. - Teleport Visuals trying to teleport too far away is now displayed by a red "x" floating at your max teleport-range in the direction you are pointing, with the red light-sphere sitting on the ground below. - Quick Guide Users in the past seemed to overlook the 3 existing tutorials for your controls. (video on steam, quick guide text in the level selection, floating controller with descriptions) To force new players to at least look at their most basic controls, these descriptions have now been mapped to your controllers. To hide these descriptions, press the spacebar on your keyboard. It is recommended, that players that still struggle take a look at one of the more detailed tutorials.

• 21st January 2017 - Second Update - New Map, Slow Mo, Cheats, Spiders.... - 21 June 2017

  Hey everyone, we've got some good and some bad news for all of you waiting for new features. Let's start off with the good news. With this update, you will get loads of new content, from a burning forrest, spider, to a slow motion mode. Shortly we will be leaving the early access stage behind. The bad news is, this will probably be the last big update coming. Developing this game has been our baby for about a year now and we are sad that we have to end working on it now, but since Orc Hunter VR is a student project and students can't keep working on one project all the time, we will have to face other tasks again from now on. We hate that we have to leave several things unfinished and that we couldn't implement more of all the awesome ideas that came up. We've already spent quite some fo our free time to finish this update and can't afford to do so further on. There might be coming some…

• 30th January 2017 - First Update - Firestaff, Discord and more - 30 January 2017

  Changes: - added a firestaff/wand - created a discord server - fixed sound issues - the bow no longer has to be unlocked FIRESTAFF: With this update, we have added a completely new weapon to the game. It's a staff that enables you to through fireballs (trigger) that explode when hitting something (doing immense damage on a large area). Depending on how long you hold down the trigger, the damage of the fireball will increase, but also its mana usage. Holding the staff still will emit the fireball to the front, swinging the staff while letting the trigger go, will shoot the fireball in the direction, in which you are swinging it. The staff also enables you to create big fire blasts (grip button) that can set enemies on fire. Your mana is displayed on the tip of your staff. If you don't use your magic powers for 2 seconds, it will start to regenerate. 100% mana: staff glows and emits ember…

• RELEASE! - 28 December 2016

  After a delay, Orc Hunter VR is finally available on steam! The game is still in it's early access stage, and we are still working on new features. Things like bosses, spiders, maps, spells, ... are things, we can do on our own. But there are other tasks that are more time consuming for us. We want to get some help with that. Example: Since we are studying 3D art, and are only hobbyists at programming, we want to use the money to get some help, especially with the AI of the orcs. Enjoy the game!

• 14th July - Second Update - 14 July 2016

  The current update only features few changes, but they should still change the impact of the game a lot. Additions: - The orcs can now be cut into 2 pieces, by slicing their chest horizontally (more cuttable limbs are coming soon) - fullscreen mode (press ESC to close the game) Changes: - General exchange of the combat system. The orcs now dodge attacks from time to time, know two attacks instead of one, and attack from a further distance. Even though the changes in combat are still pretty rough, they impact the feeling of the game quiet a lot and make it much harder to survive. Most of the combat system will still change quiet a lot. We pulled this update while it's in a rough shape, to show in what direction the combat system will be heading, and what difference slight changes can make. Stay tuned, new updates will be coming soon.

• 8th July - First Update - 8 July 2016

  Thanks to all of you who support our game, today we released our first update, it's not very big, but our plan is to release the next one in one or two weeks. New Features: -> teleport-system (activation time: 0.25 seconds; range: 3,5 meter; cooldown: 1.5 seconds; additional information: can't teleport to every place of the map to prevent the player from hiding, this area will be different for every map) -> blood, fire and spark particles Bugfixes and improvements: -> orcs now start to follow you if you walk away -> Improved the ragdoll system (less flying orcs) -> improved blocking the enemies attacks -> improved velocity check/stabbing is now possible at a lower speed -> beheading can't be done with vertical strikes anymore Note: The controls to (re)start the battle changed. Instead of the trigger the game now uses the thumbpad. The trigger is now used to teleport.

• Updates and plans for the future. - 5 July 2016

  In our minds it would be too early to release the game into the early-access stage, as soon as we originally planned. Instead, we want to use the demo as the tool, to show the development to the community. We plan to release several updates for the demo before we actually release the full version. The first update is expected to be released NEXT WEEK. Below are some informations, in case you want to know more about upcoming updates. Please note that the following list, does NOT include all our ideas, it only gives you a rough overview of what's coming. Soon to be released updates: - fixing bugs (flying orcs, ...) - making stabbing possible at a lower speed - improving the combat system (higher variety of attacks, blocking/dodging orcs, ...) - adding blood particles - more weapons such as a bow and a shield - more cuttable limbs Plans for the future (long term): - creating a higher varie…
