VR Mowing Hero 2014

Coolness★★★★★★★★★★20%

Put on your Oculus Rift! Mow your lawn! Don't run out of beer!

Mow at least 75% of the lawn before you get too thirsty and run out of beer.

Pick up beers by driving by them and grabbing them with your arm. They are BENEATH THE SURFACE of the tall grass.

Don't run the beers over or they will be RUINED and you will become OVER-THIRSTY.

Controls:

ASWD or Arrows - Drive Tractor

Mouse - Move Arm

Mouse Button - Stab Arm

PS - I do not know if this game is winnable. If you win it PLEASE tell me!

Great effort! I loved the idea and driving around. Hard to play without an Oculus as it was hard to see the arm. Me best time was about 1:00. Nice art and sound effects. I can see Homer Simpson driving around on a Saturday afternoon. :)

Thanks George. Yeah I was really focused on the VR experience but with the way it evolved I suppose the arm could be coupled to the camera for non-VR players.

Oh by the way my best time so far is 4:50 with 57% of the lawn mowed before running out of beer. Still not sure 75% is possible.

Hahaha, nice! Totally satisfies that OCD thing you only get from mowing a lawn. Love it, great theme and scope! I really need to learn from your example next time.

Fun idea and awesome to make a Oculus game, too bad I didn't have one to test the game, should have connected the mouse to look around for those who didn't have oculus.
