this game is AWFUL it has never loaded not once i cant even play the pile of crap

snake in VR! love it. Simple but entrancing, just be careful not to trip or tangle your chord as you play

Ultra modern twist on a classic. Because of this you should kind of already know what to expect. If not, they've been kind enough to provide a demo. Either way, the game is very fun and it's only going to get better (early access).

Very fun little game. A super new incarnation for an old game/concept. Fun, good price, great little addition to my library

Tails is the first game I've played that makes thorough use of room-scale VR, which in most other titles feels like an afterthought. Peaceful, compelling, flowy-shiny-dragon gameplay that leaves me feeling like I just got a shoulder massage. Very worth it. I wish I had some sort of directional auditory hint as to where a new lantern has appeared; often I spend 5-8 seconds just trying to spot it. Lanterns make a sound when they appear, but as far as I can tell the sound isn't directional.

Really enjoying this game so far! I haven't played much yet, but I can see myself getting way into this game. It's a very simple game but it's super addictive. It also makes full use of room scale. Plus it looks great in VR! Very pretty setting and the dragon looks awesome. One thing I would like to see is a global leaderboard (I don't think this exists in the game yet?). Also a daily global leaderboard would be really cool, similar to what ZenBlade does. Other than that, I really don't have any suggestions! My other favorite games for the Vive right now are ZenBlade and QuiVR, also the Lab. I think if you enjoy any of those you will really like this too!

I wasn't able to launch the game last night and posted to the discussions. To my surprise I got a response in a couple hours which was around 5 or 6 am PST. The devs fixed the problem right away and thats a really good sign in of itself. About the game: This game is an absolute blast. The obvious influence being "Snake" (although the real OG's remember nibbles) which we all know to be an addicting and sometimes maddeningly frustrating experience of "gotta get the highscore.. one more time.. DAMMIT... ok last one..." Tails does this ^. And it does it well. My 1.1 hours of play was supposed to be 5 minutes to check if the update worked to fix the launch problem... its approaching 3am now and I've been at work in a hot kitchen for 9 hours before coming home.. The last thing I wanted to do was stand and move around... Now i'm sweating profusly and this water bottle doesn't hold enough water. So why didn't I just see it worked and then stop? Because Tails is extremely satisfying. It's like a snickers bar it's so satisfying. The movement is so smooth. It just feels right. Its kinda hard to explain how it feels so here's some video of me playing to make things a little more clear. https://youtu.be/W8OpvZb2Al4?t=2m43s It's not perfect. The sound needs a little work here and there. The first "main menu" with the tutorial and start game options scared me for a second because it was pretty blurry and not so great - but the actual graphics in game are very nice and crisp. The "powerup" needs to be reworked graphically imo. Small things that NO DOUBT will be addressed quickly if they continue to have a dialogue with players. Super stoked to add it to my collection. I'll be playing alot I can tell. edit: tldr: The game is great, much fun, absolutely worth $7.99, devs seem invested and I should probably be in Rio right now.
