PyroSlam: VR Table Tennis Reviews

i bot this game on sale and its worth the money or atleast for me it was worth the money there is just one thing there are barely any people online or it was just me cause i first first loaded this game up at 1:00 am and thats all bye

Perhaps this game is more enjoyable playing online with friends. However, I can't recommend it as a single player experience as it stands right now. It's early access and there is very little content, so it's appropriately priced. There are no graphic settings at all and there are also some strange effects that cannot be disabled such as a smoke trail behind the ping pong balls, balls exploding, and circular bubbles that appear above the table that often shrink the ball into the size of a marble. Physics in this game can also be sort of janky with some shots going too far off the table and others dropping too close. You are also restricted when serving to a narrow space and the game will not allow you to serve outside this space. In my opinion, Racket Fury VR is far superior in every way and remains the best table tennis VR experience. I'll just stick with that game.

The table is just to darn low to play this game. There is no option for table height....so..... yeah. It might be a good game if you are less than 4 feet tall...... I am 6'1 tho.

Very solid physics, feels like real ping-pong, Right now there is a very solid game that works and feels as expected, bots feel good and challenging. You can unlock some custom paddles by getting EXP from individual matches with a few different contenders at 4 difficulty levels and online matches... Powerups are entertaining and work well, a tutorial how to use them would be nice (you can use them before serving) A few more environments or enemies, or a tournament/career more would make this even better And It does need a way to pass time when waiting for an online match. Recommended for anyone wanting a solid table tennis experience.

Power ups add a nice touch, the game feels very good when working properly but server/desync issues get in the way of what this game has to offer, I got it on sale and the game is a blast with friends but there are way too many instances when the servers will just not register hits or player movements. I think this game has potential especially for the price tag and would improve vastly with better server performance.

Expect to play prime LeBron James if he was a table tennis player when going against the bots

The online feature needs a bot to entertain you while you are waiting in a queue.

This game is a hidden gem under all smaller VR titles that are out there. It mixes table tennis with power-ups so perfectly well, it's (shell)shocking. I believe there would be many more people playing this game if they knew it existed. Sadly, reaching the VR playerbase is neither cheap nor easy. Overall, being in an early access state this game lacks a bit in polishing/content but being aware of the developer's dedication, I am assured there is much more to come - and I can't wait for it!

I have been looking for a vr table tennis game for a while now on steam. I know that may sounds very specific, well it was. My problem with the games available was either their price or reviews given. As a big fan of the developers game shell shock I also caught wind of this game. So, I was of course bias into buying it. However, I can honestly say, for what its worth, its a very cool and simple game. We have an intuitive user interface that is easy to navigate around in, amazing general feeling when actually playing against a friend or the AI and of course the AI to play against. What is of worth noting with this AI is its wide range of different play styles and general difficulty levels the game provides to the player. This, even when playing alone, adds great variation to the overall experience. Personally, I love playing this game with a friend, slamming the ball on the other side of the table and having a blast. The only thing I really hope for in future updates is a wider variety in the power-ups. Those that are implemented are great, either changing the play area with additional surfaces to shoot against, giving the one who hit the power-up an advantage for a short time or impacting both players (for example changing the ball size). Overall - very recommended! Looking forward to see you in the lobby ;)

Table tennis, with power-ups! PyroSlam: VR Table Tennis is a VR table tennis game at its core. The physics are very solid and the overall feel is smooth, natural and polished overall. In addition the power-ups obtainable during the match bring a fresh twist to the flow of the game, whether it be putting side or ceiling panels around the table, or applying different modifiers to the ball, such as changing its size, or making it freeze for a short time after each hit. As of currently in its very early early state there is singleplayer with 5 different environments, each with 4 bot difficulties (easy, normal, hard and insane), and multiplayer with customizable lobby settings. The bot in the single-player performs pretty well. With my own (relatively low) table tennis skills I have only been able to beat normal difficulty so far, with hard and up giving me a tough time. I have not been able to get around playing multiplayer as of yet, but I imagine that with having the power ups it will provide a lot of fun moments to be had. In terms of customization there are unlockable skins for both the paddle and the ball. Fairly basic, but is nice nonetheless. Settings include your typical volume settings, and in addition some other settings such as changing the distance from the paddle from your controller, which can be handy for those wanting to fine-tune it to their liking. Overall, a very solid base of a game with good polish in visuals and gameplay. In terms of content there is not that much as of yet, but I would imagine this will change as early access progresses and some of the modes listed in the plan get implemented. If you are a fan of table tennis, I recommend giving this one a shot!
