About the game

Star Rangers VR - Free Demo is a demo of what we would like Star Rangers VR adventures to be.
We wanted to know what it was like to propel yourself in space in virtual reality. Would you get dizzy, or would it blow your mind?

Let us know what you think.

Our backers have challenged us - if we can make it to 30,000 downloads we'll be in the running for 3 more years of development.
So we need your help, and all you have to do is play.

This free demo is a short mission set in orbit around the earth - take a bit of time to enjoy the scenery.

Star Rangers VR is planned to be a long term adventure with episodes and dangerous missions in space around the solar system, SRVR will place adventures in the solar system from orbital locations.

Do you have the right stuff? Find out with the few-minute long demo, and let us know what you think: missions or multiplayer, stories or competition?

Thanks for playing!

"Star Rangers VR - Free Demo" Star Rangers VR - Free Demo is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Star Rangers XE". Star Rangers XE is an abandoned Early Access, low poly, low quality, possibly even asset flipped "space" game that the developers gave up on around a year after they dumped it on Steam, 7 years ago.. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Star Rangers XE, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Star Rangers VR - Free Demo" too. You're forced to sign a highly questionable yet legally unenforceable End User License Agreement... for such a relatively low effort, low quality product, this comes across more as a delusion of grandeur than anything else. This agreement includes questionable requirements that may attempt to revoke consumer law protections that gamers expect to have, which is also highly problematic. Developers must learn they are here to serve gamers, not control them. I had my cat walk over the keyboard while the EULA was displaying, which fixed that problem for me. Why does an advertisement for an abandoned game need a EULA? Developers and their delusions of grandeur. But, gamers, you can see their "me first" attitude pervading the industry and making your experience as a gamer worse. This is only free in the same way that adverts on Youtube and banner ads in your browser are. This is a game demo that's been dumped on Steam to advertise another Steam store page in the hopes of raking in some cash. Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time. It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibility that would be better made available to a developer that's done the right thing and created a full game. Instead, that visibility is given over to a demo/advert that's been published incorrectly and is polluting the marketplace. It's unclear if this mistake was made through incompetence or a deliberate intent to mislead gamers. Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behaviour and it's not good for gamers. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 12 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.
