Cloudborn

Playing on an Oculus Rift. It is a fairly standard climbing-type game (e.g., The Climb, To The Top), but with a more fantasy-type setting for you, The climbing mechanics are pretty straightforward, but I don't understand when grabbing some vines, the game shifts my point of view without any input from me (in some cases, 180 degrees). It got annoying after a while to keep rotating myself to correct the camera (annoying as in the HMD cable getting wrapped around my ankles). The smooth turning setting is slow enough that I started turning my body instead of using the joystick. Using the left joystick for movement seemed unreliable as it would seem to cut out at random intervals; switching to the arm swinging setting proved to be more reliable. If you have not played a climbing-type game before, this is not a bad choice, so long as you are aware of its quirks. If you have played this type of game before, I don't think you would find anything substantially different to warrrant a purchase. I'll play a few more levels to see if I need to retract any of the above statements, but for right now, this is how I see it.
