Punch Pad Workout Reviews

i got the game does not work for oculus rift yet very bad looks real good if you can play it

it seems conceptually good, but with the occulus rift touch, the gloves are so off what my fists are it's hard to judge my distance. Seems to be specifically designed for the Vive.

Some nice updates has made this a pretty solid fitness game. I really like the punch pad mode with the trainer.

Pros: - Fun - Makes you sweat & fell active - Really good at reducing your level of energy Cons: - It needs to implement a threshold for hits not to be registered again. For example, right now, if your glove stays on the target (as in, your punch isn't as fast as it should), 2 hits will be registered. - The hitbox for numbered pads is too big. It extends far out from the front & back. While hitting pads 1 & 2, you can easily hit 3 or 4. It get's pretty annoying. - I wish I could make my gloves smaller to address the concern above. With these annoyances, I'd say give it a try and see if this is something you like. The developer clearly put a lot of time & thought on it, and these issues are totally fixable. For the price, it's a no-brainer.

Initial reaction review: Perfect workout game, especially the heavy bag mini-game. This game is simple, effective and if your looking for options to working out, this is perfect for cardio/conditioning. I blew through 43 minutes in one playthough and time just flew by. I have an Oculus Quest 2 and it works perfect! On the in-game Control Panel which is found behind you once you get in-game, you calibrate your gloves, and the height. PS - I wish there was an adjuster though for difficulty level in the mini-games, it's sometimes hard to track the pattern that is called out initially.

I'll admit I had fairly low expectations when I purchased this game, because I felt like it was just going to be another half-a$$ attempt to throw together something simple and make some cash. However, I was pleasently surprised! The sound andphysics really make you feel like you're hitting the pads. It was a really fun work-out. The dev is definitely off to a good start. I can see how this may get a little repetative after a while, but at the same time the dev seems very involved and active in the development of the game, and open to suggestions. I can see this game growing as he (or she) adds different environments and/or game modes. Multiplayer would be fun as well, as two players take turns to see who can hit the longest streak. So, dev, keep up the good work. I can't wait to see where this game goes.

Great game. I love the mitt workouts the most. At first I was hesitant on getting this based on some of the negative reviews about it not working with Oculus. So i took the plunge and bought it and it works perfectly on my Oculus Quest.

Not well designed or thought out. In some modes it goes too fast, in others too slow. Also forces you to pretty much sprawl instead of duck because it cant properly understand your height. More frustration than workout.

Dont usually write reviews for games i dont play for more than 2 hours. But this game has given me the value back for the five bucks it cost me. Great workout not only for the body but also for the brain. I do kickboxing and MMA irl, this actually gave me a workout that i didnt thought it would. This is a good complement to Thrill of the Fight, which lacks a padwork module. my suggestion is to place the swinging arm a little higher as its harder to do a proper slip with the headset on and also the ability to speed up the swinging arm. Good job! Definitely recommend this game.

I've played this game for about an hour and it seems to a well-made game, but I was hoping for a bit more. My suggestions of some enhancments. - Allow punching the numbers before the voice completes the sequence. Sometimes I just want to start punching without standing and waiting for the sequence to finish. I can still listen as I'm punching. - Along with that, maybe a mode without memorization. You just punch the lights as fast as they light up and its gets faster and faster. It would be a very good workout. - Finally, I seem to accidentaly touch pads as I'm lowering my hands and it registers as a punch and I fail the sequence. Maybe have the pads only register with a bit of punch force instead of just a touch. Either that or I just have to be more careful! :) All in all, for the price it's good. I'm still giving it thumbs up.
