The Grand Quest for The Potato Salad ==================================== The Game can be played with and without Oculus Rift.
Story ----- You are the hero of the story, Player One! You have arrived to a strange connection point between Worlds, called the Nexus. Here you'll encounter weird creatures from other worlds.
Your overlord bosses have a mission for you which you'll complete succesfully and earn the right to get your hands on the Potato Salad!
Good Luck!
How to Play ----------- You need to defeat boss monsters around their own world-locations inside the Nexus to get their World Shards. Collect 5 of these shards and return to your own world's portal to finish.
Controls -------- Movement - W, A, S, D and Q & E or Arrow Keys Attack / Use item - Spacebar Inventory - I Loot items on ground - V Reset Oculus Rift Sensor - R Quit - Esc
Oculus Rift instructions ------------------------ The game is made for Oculus Rift DK2 so it may not work too well with DK1.
Start the game with -vr. The game requires that you're running the Oculus Rift in Extended-mode. The Oculus Rift also needs to be your secondary monitor.
Other settings -------------- You can start the game with -width and -height parameters to set different window size:
GrandQuest.exe -width 1024 -height 768
Known bugs ---------- The game may randomly crash when exiting from gameover or game completion. Tried fixing a couple of the crash bugs but some may still remain.
If you get error about missing msvcr110.dll, please install the Visual C++ runtimes.
@MalphasWats awh yea seems like something is still dynamically linking to the C++ runtimes even though I thought I had the settings correctly. You'll need the Visual C++ runtimes from Microsoft. I've added a link to them at the top of the page.
that was really fun, I haven't played any 3D-turn based games yet so this was really interesting, great job! Also, I liked the little 'dialog messages'
Cool, far too big though and could have done with maybe an armour system or something, more loot's more fun! Good sense of humour though, I laughed multiple times, and the game works well!
Took a minute or so before I realised how to turn left and right (mouse camera support would have been good for non rift users), was pretty freaked out by the enemies the first time I saw them, but the game was fun to play, nice work :D

Healing potions don't seem to be that common though which is rather frustrating :/
(Too bad not all textures load on Wine and layering fails, bute still using the map I figured out to do something ;p).
Also, I liked the little 'dialog messages'
Also, loot! Loot makes any game better :) Plus for humorous item names!
You should tell the player that you can turn with Q and E, that was hard to figure out.
An occulus game.
I don't have a rig so I didn't get the full experience.
But good work!
