SAVR
A downloadable game
This is a Virtual Reality game for the Oculus Quest 1 or 2 and is inspired by 80's retro arcade games like Defender. Its in development so please feel free to leave feedback.
The year is 2121. Humans have colonised various planets in the solar system. This has caught the eye of a mysterious alien species who wish to enslave the humans and turn them into killing machines by kidnapping them up and reprogramming them. The humans on the each planet are under threat! You are the SAVR (pronounced Save VR) - Sentient Autonomous Virtual Robot, a hi-tech drone controlled virtually from earth using quantum entanglement communication whose mission is to save all the humanoids on the planet before they are enslaved by the aliens. You must pick up all the humans and destroy all the aliens in each zone before moving to the next set of humans in peril. Good luck

Can you please PM me for a question?
Hi, I was on level 3 and all the humans were killed. A 'you have failed' message came on screen and I was returned to the menu. When I selected the same level to play again, the message was still on screen and shortly after the game ended and returned to the menu. That repeated until I selected a different level.
Should be fixed now ... but let me know if you see it again.
Hi,
Great work. I loved playing this. I can see a bit of the arcade game 'Defender' in there. There was a nice switch of game type for the last level too.
At the end of level 4, the spaceship explodes and you are told to pick up the remaining humans but I cannot find them? I follow the pointer for ages but they are not there. At the same time, the 'thruster' and 'gun' look a bit glitchy so something might not be working?
On quite a few occasions, pressing the grip button emitted the ray but did not attract the human that was nearby (mainly after killing all the aliens). On other occasions they would be attracted with such a force that it sends you flying away.
What is with the extra 'I' on 'Humans' and 'Left'?
Hey thanks for the nice comments! Defender was definitely an influence when I built this (with a bit of Jet Pac and Choplifter thrown in!)
Thanks for the bug reports. Will check out human attractor function and try and tweak things a bit. I have hopefully fixed the other bugs you mentioned (new download is now available).
Level 4 bug. If you pick up all the humans and destroy the boss that should finish the level. If you don't pick them all up then you fail.
"I" bug. The "I" is actually an "!" but it looks like an "I" with the font I am using. Fixed.
Thanks again!
