00:00Oh
00:30this is shotwood by the developer concrete box and it was released on the 22nd of december 2021
00:51first of all i'm going to note that this is by a solo developer i feel that's pretty important
00:56to mention and i hope the community will support him as he finds it very difficult to work on the
01:01game full time which is very understandable considering how long it takes to build games
01:05he mentioned he has plenty of things planned for the game and some of it is partially built but he
01:10has no idea when or if it will be released so just know that this game is not abandoned about the game
01:17now if you have played gun club vr then this has a similar vibe to it you shoot stationary wooden
01:23targets but these targets will shoot back at you so be careful make your way through the course
01:28carefully look for stacks of money stop off to buy ammo try not to get hit aim for headshots don't
01:35hit any friendlies complete levels to unlock more levels collect money to buy better weapons and
01:40upgrade those weapons levels and size levels come by in the way of a1 a2 b1 b2 c1 c2 and then d1 and d2
01:50then there's a balloon game and a dodge bricks game to earn some cash each level has three modes
01:56challenge blitz or purge and also each level has three sets of five challenges to complete but this
02:03is only available in the challenge mode also in each level there are nine stacks of cash to find
02:08then there is a firing range and also a secret hidden area and of course last of all you have your
02:14home base a nice big area to explore select which level you want to play down in your base
02:19then catch an elevator up grab your weapons then select which mode you want to do then push the
02:25button and off you go enemies the enemies are wooden cutouts but be warned they do shoot back at
02:32you some have weapons and some have goo balls or streams of goo but be careful not to shoot the
02:37civilians mixed in with them weapons the weapons look great they feel great the only criticism i have
02:44you is for the sniper gun it's very wobbly when you're trying to aim it could do with having a
02:50button you push where it holds steady for a few seconds so you can take your shot but otherwise
02:55there's a selection of pistols smgs assault rifles shotguns and a sniper then you also get a sword for
03:01one game and a shield for another game also with each weapon you can unlock and buy attachments such as
03:07a laser sight scope suppressor and an ammo counter each weapon will be different i like to have maybe
03:14seen some options for magazine extensions also maybe different scope distances for the sniper
03:21mechanics the game runs great i did have a few occasions where the screen went blank for a second
03:27because it all closed on me and then there's no collision on the weapons so they go through the walls
03:33but the weapons handle really well ejecting mags and inserting them is nice all enemies look good
03:39the board flips up perfectly they even swivel to face you head on controls nothing complicated in
03:45here at all shoot grab eject magazine point and shoot game menus menus are all good and offer all
03:53your usual choices you can expect all can be accessed from a tablet that's on your bed and it offers
03:59movement for thumbsticks move type and direction turn type and angle inventory for dominant hand
04:05inventory layout holster height and vest width comfort for height adjustments hand smoothing controller
04:12haptics and frame rate which offers you 120 but i actually stuck at 90. difficulty for preset level
04:18enemy life bars player health last chance and respawn location and finally audio for music on or off
04:25announcement and captions there is also an easy to read board that displays your game progress for
04:31things such as game percentage completion cash wads found attachment sport firearms purchased
04:38assessments completed challenges beat and tactical tools owned my thoughts i really do like the
04:45progression system in this game he really does have a good understanding of what it is that makes a
04:49player want to come back and to continue playing i like that there is a hidden room it's a nice touch
04:55find the code to open it up i think there's a few rooms in there to unlock also and you might get
05:00some stuff there's not much i can think of to add to this game except to maybe add some more collectibles
05:06like posters to decorate your home base with also it would have been nice to earn a trophy every time
05:12you complete a challenge and then have somewhere in your base to display them seeing as there's so much room
05:18and then maybe make some themed dlc packs much like gun club vr has done like wild west or space or like
05:26a dinosaur land this game is perfect for all maybe you are new to vr or maybe you enjoy shooter games
05:32whatever the case support this guy and get this game into your collection for the price of seven dollars
05:37you really are getting a lot from this game i would happily pay ten dollars for this game it looks
05:42fantastic it plays really well and you will have many many hours of fun it's great value for money
05:48i hope this guy can find time to add all his new ideas to this game because his vision has been good
05:54so far anyway if you like shooter games give this one a go now touch that like button hit subscribe and
06:00happy gaming thanks guys
06:12you
