We tried iOmoon, space exploration for Oculus Rift

iOmoon es un bonito juego de exploración espacial que nos sumerge de lleno dentro de la acción gracias a su iluminación, ambientación y música.

The game iOmoon came to Steam hace unos días bajo el programa de «early access» que ofrece la plataforma y hemos podido probarlo con nuestras Oculus Rift, así que vamos a contaros nuestras impresiones sobre esta aventura de exploración tras varias horas de juego.

Of course, not without mentioning that the game is created by a single developer, Which apparently seen what impresses us has been able to create a single person. That said, we find that iOmoon is a space game en el que tendremos que explorar «Ío», una de las lunas de júpiter, en busca de vida alienígena.

Para ello controlaremos una pequeña cápsula de reconocimiento, desde la que podremos «flotar» por el escenario haciendo fotos y evitando los peligros que nos encontraremos mientras lo exploramos.

First of all, once located in the middle of the action, it has drawn attentionlighting scenarios, así como su aspecto totalmente inhóspito y lleno de elementos, a veces  de aspecto «bonito» y a veces «peligroso», con lo que tendremos que ir con cuidado por donde nos movemos.

It is an action game, So do not expect to be jumping, hitting shots or running from one side to another, because as we said the goal is to survive while exploringAvoiding lava waterfalls, meteor, canyons, mysterious liquids or ornery creatures ...

The 3D music and sounds will make us get in to the adventure, Feeling completely surrounded and having flashpoints in moments of more tension, which added to the organic look and live on the moon itself, as well as lighting that will generate some of the plants and creatures that inhabit it, they will have to enter the iOmoon world with a whole is Oculus wonder.

The control is performed using the Xbox One, including movement multimode, Designed for those who are prone to motion sickness when turning. In this case the options are sequential rotation, normal or teleporting, can change quickly with the back / select button.

Por supuesto el juego tiene sus puntos flojos, lo que teniendo en cuenta que es un «Early Access» es normal. Los problemas más destacados que hemos encontrado es a la hora de movernos, quedándonos stuck with small elements or transgressing (very shamelessly) Other, which does not interfere at all in the gaming experience but can disturb the most demanding. Hopefully the developer gradually fixing these faults go to the gaming experience is as polished as possible.

Another point worth commenting on is that although initially the sense of danger is great, as we move through the caves of the moon Io see that It is not easy to die, Taking some burden to business. Perhaps it would be good to have found most dangerous elements that really make us fear for our lives.

Here you can see a small gameplay iOmoon:

iOmoon is a nice space exploration game that plunges us into the inhospitable atmosphere by lighting, atmosphere and music.

Luckily the general experience with immersive Virtual Reality gives us is very satisfactory, siendo una buena compra si os gustan los juegos bonitos y tranquilos para sacarle partido a la «recién llegada» RV.

For now it is only compatible with Oculus RiftBut it is expected that in the future is also compatible with HTC Vive. If you are holders of the first glasses, you can get it from Steam using the following link:
