[h1]Experienced on the Oculus Rift[/h1] You can view my full playthrough & review here: https://youtu.be/4zuRfG5WA1M This is a fun little game. You drive a moped for some evil boss! The graphics are very low polygon. I think I counted 3, maybe 4 polygons. But it's still a lot of fun for what it is. It's basically the motorcycle VR game I have always wanted (but it's a moped instead), where you actually grip the handlebars and use it to steer and press trigger to speed up or brake. The whole drive on the course takes about 6 minutes. The track is interesting. You have several twists and turns and drops into different dangers. You jump some ramps and even go down into the sewers. You can re-center your view and you can toggle the grip button so you don't have to keep holding on to the handle bars. It's made by a group of students. My research indicated they are from the University of Utah. This game is in Early Access, so I can't wait to see what is added in the future. [b]Rate 7/10. It's gonna be in my list of the top 100 Free Steam VR games.

Will somebody please make this game, but a realistic looking motorcycle driving game around several courses? [/i]

Henchman For Hire is a free Early Access VR game. It did NOT work on my HTC Vive system, looked ok, played Nope, sounded ok. The instructions are for Oculus rift, but Vive controllers did NOT work. It worked at one time that i first tried it, but something was changed. I am in the lobby, cannot use the menu. It is a short game, you drive once to meet Dr. Bad. Funny game. This game is a college student project. CONS: - Warning: This game might or will cause motion sickness. I felt queezy right after and during playing this. Try it, if you don't get motion sick and have Oculus Rift.
There are very few games in this world that have made me cry. Henchman For Hire is one of them. The story of this game creates a thrilling experience that not only stimulates your brain, but also stimulates your senses Five Gum style. Though I puked my liver out a solid 7 times trying to complete this terribly optimized ass bin nauseating crust bucket of a game, it did not take away from the experience at all. Overall, I would rate this game a solid 0.821938 / -0.34242. Great job guys.
The game itself is pretty simple you are on a moped (seems that it force sit, so you have to semi crouch if you are standing), you grab the handles, accelerate with the right trigger, break and reverse with the left trigger. You have to follow a clearly laid up track on a very simple map, push a couple of buttons and the game ends. It lasts maybe 5-8 minutes. Performance was excellent, but expected with the low polygon graphics. Overall Voices and the end animation are really really well done, probably the best part of the game. The driving was kinda iffy... maybe on purpose to add to the clumsy evil henchman theme?, annoying non the less... Course could be completed way faster if the bike drove better. id LOVE a full game with similar mechanics, maybe a bit more realistic physics, with different courses and more surprises... I recommend it because its free. Nice school project, and should be considered just that.
Henchman for Hire, şaşırtıcı derecede dayanıklı bir moped üzerinde seyahat ederken süper kötü adam Dr. BAD için Barış Şehri'ni sürdüğünüz, zıpladığınız ve sabote ettiğiniz öğrenciler tarafından tasarlanmış bir VR oyunudur!
Neither a good nor a bad experience. You start off stood next to a little red moped, grip the handlebars and left / right triggers to accelerate and brake. (If you aren't seated, you will have to do a small crouch most likely to experience the developers ideal POV You follow a guided path around a small map on your moped, push a couple of buttons and then get to the end. About a 5-10 minute play-though. There's room here for expansion and a bit more room for a comedic experience but I can't complain for a free game!
Nice fun little cartoony motorcycle-detective type game. If you are prone to motion sickness I would say try with the comfort settings.
ok
