Spaceteam VR
Release Date: 21 May, 2020
WORK TOGETHER AS A SPACETEAM
Assemble a team of up to six space cadets and work together communicating and completing increasingly complex instructions.
Your spaceship has a few... eccentricities, work with your Spaceteam in order to get as far through space as you can. The ship's computer uses an approach to language that we lovingly refer to as "technobabble" - sometimes it might not use actual words, requiring a healthy amount of interpretation and clear communication from your Spaceteam.
About the Game
DON'T PANIC!
Even if this is your first space flight, it's ok, the ship will give you instructions, it's just that they might not apply to a control on the console in front of you. They might be for a control on a teammate's console so you will need to tell them, quickly, and probably loudly.
If your Spaceteam is able to complete enough instructions successfully in a sector you will progress to the next, each sector becomes increasingly difficult and as the ship becomes harder to control and eventually, inevitably, you will explode.
YOUR COMET INNOVATIONS TOOL KIT
Floating within arms reach to your right and left are your trusty tools which will, hopefully, help you to deal with the myriad of threats and anomalies that take place onboard the ship.
- Repair Hammer – used to repair broken controls
- Ray-Gun – used to shoot enemy invaders
- Steri-Sponge 3000 – used to clean up the enemy invaders slime
- Fire Extinguisher – used to extinguish the unavoidable fires
- Airhorn – for use when instructed by the Ship
SPACE IS A DANGEROUS PLACE
Anomalies and aliens pop up when you least expect it, often adding to your workload and bringing your inexorable doom ever closer. Some that you may encounter include...
UFOs
Small flying saucers appear at the outer edges of the play area and shoot at player’s controls, setting them on fire. Player’s use their ray guns to shoot back!
SLIMES
Floating green alien monsters who spit goop onto player’s consoles, players need to wipe the goop up with the sponge and shoot the Slimes down with their ray guns.
ROBOT FRIENDS
The robots that live on the ship are friendly and try to be helpful. They are responsive to players – if you wave at them, they wave back, and don’t take kindly to being shot at. They play games with each other and explore the ship at their leisure during down-time.There are three ways to play Spaceteam VR:
FULL VR MULTIPLAYER
Up to six players, connected to the internet, in any popular VR headset join in a cooperative game of trying to avoid their binding doom.
FACE TO FACE
Up to six players play locally with at least one VR headset and connected smart devices, this offers an experience much like the original Spaceteam game. In the VR game each mobile player is represented by a robot.
SINGLE PLAYER
If you don’t have any friends around or there's no one online you want to play with head to the Practice Mode and you and two of our trusty robots will form your Spaceteam.
