I was excited to play this game. After watching the video it looked so neat and pretty. Unfortunately, however, I ran into several issues. When the game began, and during subsequent restarts, the world loaded in backwards. All of the action points spawn behind the player's visor, including the lanes we're meant to shoot down to defeat invaders. Additionally, the menu was behind the player, which comes with inherent problems when trying to stream, or using a limited count of motion trackers.
There was no tutorial and it took a decent amount of time to figure out how to do anything, the arrow tracking was off, and, possibly due to the fact I was facing away from my motion trackers, the bow, string, and arrow, or anything I was holding, had a tendency to start flying around. Once the bow has been picked up, there is also no way to drop the bow or swap hands holding it. This was a problem because, as an archer, I had forgotten I needed to hold with my left hand for accuracy and at first picked it up with my right hand. I had to restart the game to get it correct. There is also no indication of exactly how to use the game's menu, so it frustrated me to no end trying to exit the game.
While I do hold out hope that these issues can be repaired, or that some kind of information can be provided on how to repair these issues myself, I'm afraid I can't play this game until something is done.
Otherwise, the art and mechanics, when things weren't flying all over the place, worked really well, and still give me hope for the game itself once the layout is repaired, even if some of the other things are not. If not for the layout issue, this would hands down be a recommendation for the game.

Neat defense game for a few bucks!
This game takes the awesome base concept of the archery demo from Valve's The Lab and iterates on it with multiple gates and lanes as well as ranged gunmen who shoot at the gates to break them.
This is a great demo for people new to the concept of VR, the controls are easy and intuitive, and since it does not involve a lot of distance to travel you will not have to worry about someone punching your tv out of existence.

I love to use bow and arrow in VR games. This one is a lot of fun. The main menu is operated by shooting targets.
Try to stop the evil Spanish from destroying your temple. You can shoot at the enemy directly (helmets and armor are removed first, then you need another arrow to actuelly hit your target) or throw bombs that appear on a table in front of you.
There are also vases that explose when hit them placed next to the road.
